    Rampage wants the fight, IMHO. This is more calculated than it seems. However I don't know if Dana wants to give Toney another chance (especially against an even higher ranked opponent).

    Kind of strange that Page isn't trying to go on a title run. Seems like he is okay with payday fights. Beating Machida has earned him another top-5 opponent and winning his next fight could be a qualifier for a title shot.

    Maybe it's wise for him to want to fight Toney. I don't know if he's into fighting a healthy Thiago Silva or Jon Jones.

    Re: Rampage responds to James Toney [video NSFW]

    I think it is more personal, than anything. The only advantage Toney has is boxing. I'd like to see this fight stay, honestly. I'd like to see Rampage beat Toney via clinch work and other forms of stand up.

    However, I'm more curious to see Rampage fight the Thiago Silva. I think Bones/Bader gets the next title shot.

    Huge Rampage fan, but Thiago was straight nasty against Vera.... Im much more interested in a Rampage vs. Thaigo match too.

    Toney didn't take much time to respond:

    It seems Randy was too gentle on this fool. Make the fight Dana! Offer Page a bonus for every time he slams Toney through the mat.
