Difference
Not that he needs to cater to me but I like this Forrest 100x better than his Robin Williams knock-off persona
It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.
respect..
at least you guys are over this whole forest griffin sucks bullshit, hes a solid fighter and i think it was just fedor fans saying he sucks because they want to take away from anderson silva’s win over him..
Agreed
Guyverbib i completely agree with you. It’s ridiculous how ppl were all over Forrest’s nuts when he won the belt from Rampage and then jumped ship after he got embarrassed by Silva. I respect the hell outta a guy that brings it in every fight and just has that will to win and that’s Forrest’s MO. He may not be the most talented guy in the world, but I am guaranteeing he strings together 3-4 more wins and gets right back into title contention because of his work ethic alone.
TimTebow
He isn’t going to string together 3-4 more wins in the LHW division, unless they feed him guys outside the top 10. No one is going to string that many together against the top guys. Machida and Shogun aren’t even going to go on that sort of run. Forrest will be a 33%er if he has to face guys the top 10 in the UFC.
Fedor is the king…
P4P best ever.

Fedor Fans?
That was the most idiotic post I ever read! I didn’t know you couldn’t be a fan of Anderson Silva and Fedor. You my friend are an idiot! Maybe people don’t like the way he cries and runs out of the ring when he loses. Maybe people don’t like the way he throws punches like a girl with no power behind them. Maybe people are sick of him trying to be funny. What the hell does Fedor have to do with Forrest Griffin??? Idiot!

Kayo
do you think there are not die hard Fedor fans who dont like Anderson Silva ( who is clearly the biggest threat to Fedors title of #1p4p) ? Not that I completely agree with GuyverBob’s theory, but I can imagine some people fit nicely into that grouping. I thought the post was funny and original. by the way you start sounding redundant calling someone or implying that someone is an “idiot” 3 times in one paragraph, why dont you try mixing up your insults a little, it should add flavor to your trollling.
Forrest does suck
He would get destroyed by at least 15 different LHWs if I’m being generous. In reality he’s probably around 22-23ish in the division.
Tito is 5 yrs past his prime
this win does nothing for me….Forrest is a fake, pretending not to care about losing and then showing poor sports-manship after getting ko’d by Sliva and Jardine, what if the Pats ran off after losing to the Colts?
forrest
I’m glad forrest won, he needed that, he should fight jardine next and avenge that

glad to see the turn around
he did need this to get the eor mentality over with..hope he can remain positive..i like watching him fight cuz he is scrappy..but he is not a KO specialist or anything..he just loves to fight..and that is a good thing to see…imo
the difference between a brown noser and a sh*t head..is depth perception!
Forrest couldnt bust a grape
Lets be serious guys, Forrest would get demolished by any top 10 lhw.
His punches probably has less power in them than a LW has.
Whoever he faces next will beat him, mark my words.

really??
any top 10, hmm well i do recall him beating shoguns ass and out lasting rampage, and don’t give me that excuses shit cause forest was injuired in his fight with shogun as well and he is a good fighter, like i said lester u try telling him this grape stuff to his face u will feel how hard he hits, and u never seem to have anything positive to say anyways..
Rampage fanboy?
Lester why all the Forrest hate? Because he beat your boy Rampage who was #1 in the world at one time, or what about Shogun? He finished him and he was #1 in the world too. I think hes gonna win some fights in a row and get back into title contention and honestly im not a huge Forrest fan at all.
I despise "rampage"
Def not a fan of that idiot in any way, but that doesnt make Forrest look less like a joke vs Jardine, Evans and Silva.
He cant bust a grape, accept it.

Come on
Not a huge Forrest fan either, but give him some credit. Granted he couldn’t bust a grape, but he was beating Rashad and Jardine prior to being KOd. I’ll throw the Shogun fight out because I think by now we know that that was not the real Shogun, but I was impressed with him against Rampage. Forrest will make it a fight against anyone not named Anderson Silva. I for one was not impressed with his win over Tito, but give him credit for fighting with a broken foot and on short notice. But eeking out a win over Tito Ortiz almost six years past his prime is nothing to hang your hat on. I don’t think he could hang with Little Nog should that fight happen. The best thing Forrest has going for him is his durrability and that aint enough against top teir fighters.
bust a grape?
I remember a reporter saying about the same thing to Forrest at a gym, so Forrest leg kicked the guy and broke his damn Femur!!!! Thats a regular everyday guy like you or me. Lester your continually making yourself look ignorant on this site. day after day. accept it.
Yes, he does seem a little too thougtful for that line of work.
