I'm picking Forrest in a decision for that one. Evans will be really hard to finish.......no doubt he can catch Griffin like he did Chuck. Tough choice, but I'm going with Forrest being to big and strong for him.

rampage-wandy is a tough call. i would pick rampage if they had never fought, but wandy has to be in quinton's head.

I'm taking Nog via ref stoppage from strikes, Wandy via ref stoppage from strikes and Hammill with just a victory. I might dump that Hammill pick though, I don't know enough about the opponent.

I'm in the same boat. You watch those fights on youtube or something and you think there is no way Rampage is winning. I would pick him otherwise as well, and I won't be surprised if he does pull it off. But, Wandy ain't the same ax murderer that beat the shite out of that guy before.

no doubt. dude was a legend in pride. i can't see him destroying rampage like he did in pride or even the way he did Jardene for that matter.

i really dont think rampage is training with the better pool of fighters that is necessary to win this fight.

no shite. Bisping and Congo? not the best way to prepare for Wandy.

I think Rampage will come out on fire. I think he will be doing very well and then Wandy will catch him with a nasty shot or two and get Page thinking about the other arse kickings at the hands of this guy. Jackson's gameplan then goes to shite and Wandy ends it like the first two. (Again Rampage has a very good shot, this is just my guess at what will happen)

i mean they're good and paul kelly is a stud at 170.

but who else?

wandy being in las vegas has the deeper pool of people to spar and train with.

im gonna have to email his physical trainer rafael about his hypoxia training because the articles on his website about it are so damn small i cant tell what the f its about.
