Who do you think's gonna win ? I personally can't tell since Forrest Griffin is extremely unpredictable I mean who could've guessed that je was gonna crush Shogun the way he did.

we already have a mixed martial arts thread.

Forrest is not unpredicatble. his style is fairly easy to adapt to, since he has no specialty. He's manily a brawler with good skills in every aspect.

Shogun had a knee injury and was not fully prepared. In a rematch, a healthy Shogun would defeat Forrest. Shogun is still going through surgery and recovery. That knee of his is really messed up.

as for this match up, Rampage via TKO round 2. as long as Rampage doesn't take Forrest lightly.

I want Forrest to win but I think Rampage wins by TKO him early in the 3rd round.

I am also going with Rampage here.

In the end I guess, I want to see a fight that has the potential to be the fight of the year.

I wanna see a brawl like Forrest Griffin vs. Stephan Bonner at the 1st TUF finale or Chuck Liddell vs. Wanderlei Silva that last one was all that I wanted it to be.

i'd rather see this being more like Rampage vs Henderson or Barnett vs Nogueira. those were real wars.

I highly doubt Rampage vs Griffin will look anything like Griffin vs Bonnar. If anyone is just looking for a slugfest, I think they'll be very disappointed.

I want Forrest to win so bad. He's such a cool fighter. That said, I think Rampage is gonna win.I say 2nd rd stoppage. Ill give him enough credit to last one round.

I would say Rampage.

Both are cool/funny guys, I liked it when Forrest shot/trapped Rampage with a net gun on the Ultimate Fighter.

Yeah I know since Rampage is more of a ground and pound however that's the kinda fights I like, btw I thought Rampage vs. Henderson wasn't all that.

Rampage vs Henderson was one of the most adept fights i have seen since Barnett vs Nogueria (I and II).

Henderson and Rampage had so many transitions on the ground that you would rarely see in any other mma fight. The striking was impressive as well. Both fighters were taking punishment but both were displaying so much heart and determination for the belt.

I actually thought Henderson won, but it was too close to call.

this fight defined mixed martial arts. simple as that.

Very knowledgeable post...do you train Doc?

i trained in JJ and Judo for a short time as a kid, but since the dojo was so far from home, i HAD to take up Karate and Tae Kwon Do. i LOVED it. the competitions were fun and i loved the sparring practices (just not when i had to spar with a girl, i would get so shy)

for the past few years, i've been trying to take up muay thai but school and work take up too much of my schedule. since i'm not planning on ever being a fighter, and for the most part im not a violent guy, i dont plan on taking any training too seriously

Cool...me and a buddy I worked with were training to fight 3 years ago. He was training training BJJ with Carlson Gracie Sr (may he rest in peace) in Chicago and invited me down. Our plan was to train for until we were good enough to fight in local shows. I ended up hurting my shoulder twice in a span of 3 months and decided get in better shape before going back.

Then I got married...sadwalk

I plan to eventually...Just recently rolled with a couple guys and I've got the bug again. Just gotta make time.

There is no way Forrest can win this no matter if he is the way he usually is or if he screws everything over again.. Rampage has way too much skill and in ring experience not to win.. He is so strong..

Rampage easily..

Rampage easily.. in this sport, anything can happen. i'm giving Forrest a decent shot. Forrest can win with a really strong knee to Rampage's jaw, or even going for a submission.

i'm saying Rampage via TKO round 3.

I picked Rampage to whip Chuck but never in a million years by standing knockout. So anything can happen.

That said, there's a very good chance Rampage will give Forrest the beating of his life and win by ground and pound stoppage.

I know its very unlikely but I want Forrest to pull a very big upset.

OMFG...Forrest just made me eat these words...Great f"kin fight.

I did not expect that fight to the judges, but I had a feeling that the judges thought Forrest won. Great fight and I want a rematch because that was great

i watched the fight twice. my result was a DRAW twice.

i dont see how Rampage could have won, and i dont see how Forrest could have won.

a rematch in the future is a must.

Hopefully they can set up a rematch soon and not have them fight someone else in between. Forrest is gonna be a marked man now.

The light heavyweight division is waaay too stacked not to do the rematch immediately...Even with beating Rampage it's hard for me to see a successful title defense for Forrest unless he fights Rashaad Evans next.

Also, if they don't do it immediately and he loses the title, a lot of people just won't care anymore.

Besides Rampage, I want Forrest to avenge his loss to Keith Jardine. He wont get careless again.
