Dana putting anti-Dana Kennedy on one of his biggest cards was a nice gesture by BLAF.

Actually, just scratch that whole sentence up there. It wreaks of the UG ("BLAF" specifically).

Anyway, Rashad looked like ass in his last outing, he probably has awoken and become a pro fighter again. I just don't see how Kennedy would win. Rashad is a better grappler and a harder puncher.

Just have to hope Rashad has some juice (pun intended) left in the tank.

A faded old guy vs an inactive old guy who hasn't fought post-USADA. A lot of variables to this.

Although I would like to see Kennedy lose, he will probably destroy Rashad whos hasnt been the same since USADA came into the picture.

Rashad has looked pretty bad in recent fights. Honestly, I doubted he would get anymore wins unless he got fed some cans. I have also stated I think Tim has a shot at beating any of the top 5. It seems strange that my mind is telling me that Rashad poses more problems to Tim than does the top of heap guys. He is athletic and elusive. If he still remembers how to rassle, he may be a handful. Hopefully Tim is able to drag him to the deep water and drown him, metaphorically speaking of course.

More like since his MCL cadaver pulled a Dominic Cruz on him.

Doesn't look like he's capable of a Cruz-like comeback either.... except he's fought more recently, so that might help.

Kennedy isn't taking down hash and hash isn't knocking out Kennedy.....split decision to hash, very easy to figure out

Yea it is interesting, but it's not relevant to anything really.

Will watch for interest of the contest not the relevance.

Rashad is finally going to Middleweight, several fights too late.

Here's hoping it still matters
