Von I can't argue that Chuck carries his hands low. From talking to and training with MMA guys there is a difference in philosophy about this. Hands up in a classic boxing stance makes it harder to stuff takedowns and of course hands down make it easy to get KO'd. I think we originally felt that Rashad would look for td. Obviosly he didn't. All that being said by the second round Chuck should have known Rashad planned on standing. I have felt ever since the Rampage fight that Chuck is going the way of Hughes/Ortiz/Shamrock. He has failed to continue to evolve with the game. Knowing that his opponents have tons of film to sit and disect his strategy and that he has essentially "been figured out" he needs a new trainer if he is going to continue to fight. He needs someone else to game plan and try to bring more to the fight. If I were Chuck and planned on still fighting I'd go work in Randy's gym.
