Although Tito Ortiz may be a few more wins away from a shot at the UFC Light Heavyweight title, Rashad Evans needs just one win, against Ortiz, before he can claim his shot.<Br><Br>

UFC President Dana White has already stated that if Evans gets passed Ortiz in August, he'll be first in line for the winner of Jon Jones Vs. Quinton "Rampage" Jackson.<Br><Br>

Evans talked about that bout this week and gave his thoughts on why he feels Rampage won't win the title:<Br><Br>

?I think it?s going to be Jon Jones,? Evans told <a href=http://mmaweekly.com/rashad-evans-says-rampage-is-living-off-his-pride-days-predicts-a-jon-jones-victory-at-ufc-135>MMAWeekly</a> Radio when asked to predict a winner. ?I would like to see Rampage catch him with something, but I honestly believe Rampage is not doing what he needs to do, and he?s not going to do what he needs to do to win the title.?<Br><Br>

?He?s just been living off of fumes of his Pride days", Evans continued "he really needs to go and take things seriously. If he took things seriously, I think he might be able to do something, but he ain?t trying to take nothing serious.?<Br><Br>
