forrest obviously did nothing that absolutely warranted a 10-8. a knock-down would've sealed that imo

you people love giving forest the fake 10-8s

but, i wouldn't be overwhelming adamant for a 10-8, and tito probably gets a -1 from me for being tito

I had Forrest 29-28 winning rounds 1 and 3. Tito's takedown in round 1 was not enough to win it IMO because he got neutralized on the ground and Forrest won the stand up battle. Good fight though.

Very happy Little Nog is now in the UFC. With him and now Tito back the LHW division just got a boost (not like it really needed one though).

Kos and Rumble's eye poke match was terrific. Moe would be proud.

I have a feeling Tito is going to rape Forrest.


I'll take my medicine on this. Apparently Griffin has a much bigger heart than I thought. Props to him for coming back after an arse beating that no one could have come back from pridefully.

Is it just me or is anyone else getting sick of Griffin's "normal guy" act? I'd rather see a fighter act like a prick like Lesnar and Matt Hughes than try and pretend that they're just some average guy and let their emotions show too much. Forrest acts like an a-hole and gets overexcited when he wins and then runs off like a bitch when he gets knocked out and cries and shite.

I'm getting pretty sick of him for that reason alone, not to mention I don't know whether to expect an exciting fight or him getting his arse beat when he fights. He's probably the most up and down fighter in MMA, imo. He lost a lot of my respect when he cried after Jardine dribbled his head like a basketball off the octagon floor.

I didn't get to see any of the PPV fights. I was in Hammond and the g/f didn't want to go to BWW.

but...after watching the post-fight press confernece, have you guys EVER seen a fighter toot his own horn more than Tito? This guy is a complete douchebag. Thoughts on Tito vs Forrest TUF? I doubt Forrest will do it but Dana has a way of getting his way. I will give Tito props that he is a hell of a coach.

While I thought Tito won the first 2 rounds, narrowly I might add, he sounded like a little bitch after the fight complaining about his injuries. I thought before the fight he was saying he was in his best condition in years, then after the fight he starts running off a laundry list of ails. I would have had less of a problem with him complaining about the 30-27 than his injuries.

Especially when he spent the weeks before the fight blaming his last few losses on being injured and saying he is finally healthy after having back surgery.

I agree. If ya'll saw the Countdown special, he spent the entire show blaming all of his losses on his back while preaching his health for this fight. He loses and then blames his back again. Tito is a tired act. I love to watch him lose and whine. He always says he doesn't make excuses and then dishes out a laundry list of them. How many times can he say how awesome he is for showing up to fight after his surgery? The man truly loves himself.

This made me think of how I will love it when Penn beats Sanchez's arse.

Damn, you're going to be cheering for BJ? You must really hate Diego.

Yep. I do love the way that guy fights but Diego is a complete tool. His doucebaggetry supercedes BJ's.

Speaking of this card: I know no one else likes Mir but I'd love for him to get a rubber match with Brock. I also hope Clay takes out Kenny on this card too. Truthfully, I'm so hooked on the sport; I don't need a big name to watch.
