This is just Rampage hyping it up. From what I understand these guys actually like one another. Besides, I have to take Griffin on this one. I know Rampage is a different fighter than when Shogun put a beating on him, but Forrest, in my opinion, has a bigger heart and except for the Ortiz (when he was still king of green) and Jardine fights he has stepped up when it mattered(against Shogun). I say this fight goes to the 4th or 5th round

Don’t hate on Rampage, he’s just doing his job. Hyping the fight. They apparently get along REALLY well, but they have to sell the fight.

Saying he punches like a crack head is also hilarious!

LOL, Glass Jaw and hits like a Crack Head. MAN, I LOVE Rampage.

I have been saying that Rampage will KO Forrest in the first round and then Forrest would be lucky to see Round number 2. Rampage thinks the same way – KO in two minutes or less. ANd you know what? I believe him!

Rampage is only half right. Forrest can take a punch like nobody’s business. He should have more power being as big as he is. Standing and trading with Rampage will make it a short night, but I’m sure Randy C. came up with a more intelligent gameplan than that for Forrest.

Since when can Forrest take a punch? Jardine proved he can’t. Tito never really hit him good, Shogun caught him with an elbow to the forehead on the ground that was anything but powerful, it’s hard to knock a guy out if you hit his forehead. Bonnar clipped him pretty good but is not a technically hard striker. Bonnar strikes like Forrest does. He hits you but not with enough power to ko you.

Spyder style: I agree completely with you and Rampage. Forrest withstood Bonner’s strikes, but Bonner isnt exactly Known for his KO ability. Forrest has no striking power whatsoever. In 2 fights against Bonner, he must have hit Bonner about 200 times and never once did Bonner slow down. If Rampage hits Bonner 200 times, Bonner would have Down Syndrom!lol Also keep in mind that Rampage has never been KO’ed by a punch in PRIDE or the UFC. He ate a lot of Liddell’s punches in their Pride fight and they didn’t slow Rampage down at all. If Chuck was hitting Forrest like that Forrest would be a vedgetable.

Rampage is better than Forrest at Everything!

Rampage was on the Radio out here in phoenix a few days ago and was going on about how Griffin is a “retard”. It was funny but the trash talk gets old and the more he does it the more I want him to get worked. Forrest doesn’t have a glass jaw. And Quinten isn’t indestructable. I don’t recall them ever liking eachother either. I hear they really get into it on the show. We’ll see.

I agree. Granted, Bonnar has a solid chin, but Forrest must have hit him 100 times in the face over the course of their two bouts; I never really saw Bonnar ever look like he was hurt.

By round 3 of the Rua fight Shogun was walking towards Forrest with his hands down by his side. This guy was basically sleep-walking towards Forrest and he still couldn’t knock him out.

“Forrest can’t buss a grape.”

They’re on friendly terms. I’ve seen them hanging out in the fighter’s hotel before. I have to go with Rampage but it could be very competitive. Forrest will try and use the reach. He has too. I know Forrest likes a war and a slug fest but Rampage just hits way too hard to stand in the pocket and bang it out in my opinion. I want to see Rampage and Liddell again because they’re two of the biggest superstars in the business at the moment. Suppose again you’d have to say ‘Page takes it but you know you’re going to see a KO or TKO regardless.

Forrest dwarfs Rampage height and reach wise, needless to say Quinton is a block of muscle when you see him in real life and he does that howling thing at 4 in the morning in hotel lobbies too.

Actually Forrest looks like a heavyweight in comparison to Bisping who looked like an inflated MW. No way is Bisping 6’2", I’m 185cm, that’s around 6’1" and I’m definitely as tall or taller. I’d actually say Ed Herman is bigger than MB.
What is up with the BS heights in the UFC. No way is there only 1 inch difference between Okami and Franklin (Rich is genuinely 6’1") either. S’pose it doesn’t really matter, it’s just surprising when you see some of them in real life.

I’m not going to argue with anybody about Forrest’s power, because it just isn’t there. As far as the Jardine fight goes, however, Forrest ate about 12 solid shots standing and on the ground before the ref stepped in. Forrest never went out. Tito spent about 4 1/2 minutes of the first round of their fight putting his elbows in Forrest’s face and couldn’t finish him. And you don’t win the Chicago Golden Gloves twice like Bonner did without being able to throw some hard punches. Forrest took all those and still won twice. He can take shots, it’s just not the smartest course of action against Rampage.

I love what Rampage is bringing to the MMA. Reminds me of Chad Johnson talking sh*t a week before a big game. He makes UFC much more exciting for those who are barely getting into the sport. Although if he did make that personal remark about Forrest being a “retard” than that’s kinda fuc*ed up. Because Forrest does seem to have a slur & slow speech which makes him an easy target to make fun of.

I am with you. The more I hear his comments and jokes the more he annoys me. I usually like cocky & funny guys like him, but for some reason I can’t stand him anymore.

I really don’t understand the glass jaw thing. Is it because of the Jardine fight? Even when he was down and getting pounded he seemed to be aware and was trying to defend himself.

Rampage has admitted he hates to train and with his new celebrity ego he better not take this fight lightly or he will lose.

Fedor Emelianenko is not the only top heavyweight in the world of mixed martial arts to have been involved in a high-profile divorce from a major organization. If a report by Tom Hamlin of MMAWeekly.com is correct, former two-time UFC heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia is the latest fighter to part ways from his employer.

Terms of the agreement were not listed in the report. It should be noted that Sylvia either has or had one fight remaining on his contract with the UFC.

According to the report, Sylvia’s divorce from the UFC was finalized earlier this week. He has hinted on his website that he will be making a major announcement in regards to his career on Friday.

It is not yet certain what Sylvia’s next move will be. However, neither the UFC or Sylvia’s agent, Monte Cox, have issued an official comment. However, MMA Weekly is speculating that Sylvia will likely join Cox and become a part of M-1 Global.

It is also interesting to note that M-1 Global issued a press release to announce their separation with Fedor Emelianenko but also revealed that they will be issuing a second press release in 24 hours. It is unknown if the promised release is simply a repeat of the Fedor announcement, an announcement pertaining to Sylvia, or something completely separate.

This turn of events is very interesting. When I spoke with Cox several weeks back he indicated that it was his preference to work out a new pact with the UFC.

More details as they become available.

Brandon: U are absolutely Right! I too thought it was pretty pathetic how Shogun was basically sleep walkin (as you said) and Forrest couldn’t drop him.

Keep in mind Rampage has never been KO by a punch. In his Pride/UFC career he has only been KO 3 times. 2 wanderlei, 1 time Shogun and all 3 of those KO losses came from Knees and Kicks, NOT PUNCHES and there is no way Forrest is going to throw kicks and Knees like the Chute Box animals, so Rampage is not getting KO in this fight. Its just not going to happen.

I dont mean to talk so negatively about Forrest because I love watching him fight. He is very entertaining and I have much respect for what his fight with Bonner at the TUF 1 did for the sport. But the UFC did him a disservice by putting this fight together.

The highlites of Forrest’s career:
Going the distance in a hard fought war with Stephan Bonner
Basically fighting an OVER RATED Tito Ortiz to a draw
Beating an ACL-less Shogun

Rampage has beaten:
Arona
Lindland
Henderson
Ninja
Igor
Bustamante
Liddell (twice)
Kevin Randleman
Dong Sik Yoon

How many of those fighters could Forrest have beaten? Few!

For all you mma betters: Last time I said I had a lock was GSP over Matt Hughes at UFC 79 and that was a dominating 1 sided beatdown.

I feel that this fight will be even more 1 sided then that was.This is basically a marketable fight to the casual fan. There are many people out there who think Forrest is a GOD and know little about Rampage. This fight apeals to those fans. For the well informed hardcore fans, this isn’t a great fight.
A great main event is a fight that is so close that I cant even try to predict. This does not fall under that category.
This is not a competitive title fight but as a huge fan of both fighters, I will enjoy Rampage adding to his impressive highlite reel.

I feel bad for Forrest because all that heart of his, is only going to get him hurt. Entertaining but 1 sided fight. Why did they do this too poor Forrest?

This is just Rampage hyping it up. From what I understand these guys actually like one another. Besides, I have to take Griffin on this one. I know Rampage is a different fighter than when Shogun put a beating on him, but Forrest, in my opinion, has a bigger heart and except for the Ortiz (when he was still king of green) and Jardine fights he has stepped up when it mattered(against Shogun). I say this fight goes to the 4th or 5th round

actually they have had beef on the show! not beef like ortiz and shamrock..more like a war of words like hughes and serra. i think jackson is taking the hype of this fight to the point he may be underestimating forrest to a point…jarkdine hit hard man…get caught when you dont see it coming..will knock you out no matter who it is. forrest has been in some wars with crazy heavy striking and survived…and if jackson had never fought crack head…you cant hurt them..they just wabble lol! and they come back again.

Rampage is hilarious. I love it. :) You know these guys talked about how they’d hype the fight. They’ve got big money on the line, and they’re both gonna act like they don’t like each other, even though we all know they do.

One of the things Rampage has going for him is that he looks at his opponent as a guy who wants to steal his payday. Few fighters see it from that perspective, but that’s Rampage’s view. “This guy made me train so hard for months so that he can come in and steal my pay? Hell no.” ;-)

Wow, I’d would LOVE to see Roy Jones Jr. pepper Anderson Silva, and do the Beat Your Ass Boogie around the ring.

Rampage was on the Radio out here in phoenix a few days ago and was going on about how Griffin is a “retard”. It was funny but the trash talk gets old and the more he does it the more I want him to get worked. Forrest doesn’t have a glass jaw. And Quinten isn’t indestructable. I don’t recall them ever liking eachother either. I hear they really get into it on the show. We’ll see.

War Griffin!!!

I just don’t like how he always mentions his, “paycheck.” I hate how he always talks about money. Thats just my little bitchy pet peeve about him. It just bothers me.

rampage is the man, you guys gotta stop crying over sh*t talking. because the UFC is built on trashing other fighters, it’s actually the main way they promote their big fights (and Dana White has commented on how he thinks Vince McMahon is a marketing genius i.e. adding DRAMA!!). In fact its the very ugly ass side of mma, whether its pretty or not, can’t do without the ass (it would make defecating hard). It’s what sells fights, and it’s what turns the heads of the a lot of fans (mainly newbies).
Let’s also keep in mind most of the shit talk in mma is the same crap over and over again: “i got better hands than him,” “he sucks at this and that,” “imna punch his head in like my hand is a brick,” or some retarded crap along those lines (snore). Rampage is charismatic, creative, and just plain hilarious. And he’s backed up everything he’s said since day one, all 3 fights in the UFC were great fights that rampage won pretty definitively. He even knocked out chuck earlier than he predicted.
And trash talking is a huge part of any competitive sport, other great shit talkers include Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Micheal Jordan, Charles Barkley, Ocho Cinqo, like 9/10 of the NFL, pretty much any big sports star, etc.
With all that said we have to now agree that Rampage is the best of the best in the mma business when it comes to doggin’ on an opponent. He is by far the king…
And to be perfectly honest most of the smack talk is the same verbal poopoo that everyone says about everyone. The fact is most guy are like ken shamrock, they are balls to the wall tough, and a lot of them have great skills, but they are about as simple and one dimensional as a sign language speaking ape when it comes to the common broken record shit talking. Rampage is not one of these people, and you know it.

Thats what he is fighting for. At least he is honest enough about it.

At least he doesn’t BS. I don’t want to hear fighters fighting for “pride” and “honour” if they don’t mean it.

Rampage talks crap all the time, he doesn’t have the respect that will make him a great chempion like Wanderlei Silva was in his PRIDE days.

Rampage is hyping this up, its kind of working though Im sort of getting irritated, although still, it seems cheap to say low blows about your opponent just to bring him down,it reminds me too much of Professional Wrestling, like when WWE stars are about to fight, they sure yak a lot. Talk like that is cheap when you’re SUPPOSED to fight…physically. Anyways, win or lose Forrest Griffin is my man. He’s proven himself.
