Anyone else annoyed that Liddell is doing more press and marketing even though he lost to Rampage?  Fight Opinion weighs in on the issue here.

Re: Video of the Day
Yes. Rampage has been resigned to doing interviews on local news stations announcing huge fights like him and Henderson, Sept 8th in London.

Chuck is, to put it bluntly, boring as hell in this interview.

Dana refuses to put Rampage over. I don't get it.

Re: Video of the Day
I think a lot of that comes down to fan's booing after Chuck lost.  Which, mind you, was less about fan's not liking Rampage as it was about them being taken off-guard at the speed with which he was taken out.

My gut is telling me that Dana saw that as "the crowd is booing, Rampage isn't a viable champion for us compared to Chuck in terms of crowd acceptance" and made the decision that he should still be pushing Chuck out there in the public.
