By noreply@blogger.com (Tim) Awesome Event. Rashad Evans wins again. Pride Nut huggers mourn... Jackson beat Wandy? Both were hesitant in the beginning of the match. Once they both started bar brawling, one connected. Jackson delivered a solid, closed eyed shot. Flip a coin on the bar brawls. Don't fret Wandy nut huggers. Will Rampage go on a God Rampage after a Win? Pray for the children. Evans beat Forrest? The undefeated Evans showed up in his usual form. I believe he holds the record for an undefeated fighter being doubted in an indefinate number of times in a row. Evans added another highlight real knockout tonight. Who is his next victim? How many times will he have to defend the belt before he is no longer popularly considered the underdog?   [read the full post]

By Eric Shapiro Since 2006 Forrest has lost to Tito Ortiz, beaten Stephan Bonnar (again), lost to Keith Jardine and beaten Hector Ramirez. Forrest would then go on to defeat Mauricio “Shogun” Rua and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson in impressive fashion, though I have a few caveats.

By ricko paulo People who have followed my sites for awhile, surely know that I have never been a Forrest Griffin believer, but its getting hard not to trust this guy in a fight. He has a huge heart, he's tough as nails and is really big for his weight class, that being said I have to pick against him again.

By bfowlkes If Forrest Griffin can stick to the game plan he had against Rampage — playing it smart and safe, but pouncing when there are opportunities — he’ll beat Rashad Evans in a split decision.

5.       Shogun. Mauricio “Shogun” Rua is a striking genius at 205 and would make for a great candidate for Shogun to fight. 10.   Forrest Griffin. He’s the champ at 205, Anderson Silva is the champ at 185. Neither fighter backs down an inch. Sounds like a fun fight.

Mark: I think it will be much sooner rather than later. Unfortunately, I think it will be in the same weight class.

Matt Hughes Tito Ortiz It's clear that Wanderlei Silva doesn't have the core skills to be effective in the top tier of the UFC LHW division due in part to his lack of skill progression and evolution within the sport of mixed martial arts. All that's left for the Dulled Axe Murderer is to hope that Rampage Jackson beats Forrest Griffin at UFC 86 on Jul 5, 2008 so he can have one last chance at the title and a huge motherfuckin' payday and retirement party after Rampage dismantles the man from the monkey boy in the MMA world.   [read the full post]
