Welcome to a world of pain, Rashad.

I'm still upset that he divorced his wife right when she was developing a Wives of MMA show and it fell apart. Selfish bastid

Bader by TKO.

Bader by TKO.

Rashad will send Bader out of the Top 5.

I assume Rashad wins right? I haven't seen Bader fight recently but Evans has been out for almost 2 years and is 35. I guess Bader does hit hard and Evans tends to always take a hard shot int he third round so you never know.
