R.1 Rampage
R.2 Forrest
R.3 Toss up
R.4 Toss up probably Griffin though
R.5 Griffin

I thought Griffin outworked him .. Rampage needed to be alot more aggresive .. when are these fighters gonna realize that to be forestt you have to be aggresive ... Rampage shoulda charged in alot more .. Forrest was not gonna knock him out

I told ya'll Forrest by desision, Never question me agian. That goes double for that dope that told me to "put my money where my mouth is" HAHA Rampage lovers are too much. He is nothing special. He caught Chuck. Just like Serra caught GSP. Rampage was beat on my TV and every real MMA site.

Forrest clearly won this fight, it was close, but looking at the offensive output by the 2 fighters....

Rampage floored him with that one shot, the cut him midway with that elbow..... a few flurries that never really hurt Forrest......

Then looking at Forrest, he buckled and hurt Rampage bad with those leg kicks, mounted him for nearly a whole round!!, a Triangle locked in, and as many good flurries as Rampage had.....it was a close fight but I thought it was clear that Forrest won.

I had it 48-47 Griffen. People who are claiming a work or a fix are confusing a an upset with a robbery. It could of gone either way.

Too many of this so called "hardcore" fans are full of shit. REPEAT anyone who said this was a robbery needs to clean the shit out of their brain. I haven't missed a UFC since UFC 37, I haven't missed one fight night, I have The Fight Network on cable so I get to watch ALL the elite XC, IFL, TKO and other cards and I think Griffen won.

All of you whiney bitches, shove that up your ass.

Immediate rematch should be ordered..
I COMPLETELY agree with everything you said.

Round 3: Rampage 10-9
Round 4: Rampage 10-9
Round 5: Griffin 10-9

How Griffin can get a title for a few kicks and barely landing a single punch, I'll never know. Rampage power punched with accuracy, took Griffin down and never got hurt. Makes no sense to me.
Agreed. Worst case scenario was a draw for Rampage. The champ has to be beaten so Rampage won that fight. Griffin won rounds 2 (arguably a 10-8 round) and 5. How the hell did one of the judges score it 49-46!?

The judges always seem to have the UFC's best interest in mind. Suspicious if you ask me. Even the die hard Forrest fans that I was with thought Rampage won the fight. Total bullshit

Well, that's the last UFC PPV I buy. I don't care if Forrest moved around more or missed more punches, Rampage did DAMAGE with his punches. Damage is what fighting is about, not "keeping busy". Keeping busy is what I do when the girlfriend is watching The Amazing Race.

To win the belt you are supposed to BEAT the Champ. If it's too close to call, the tie goes to the Champion. End of story.

Why no 10-8 first round for a knock down by 10-8 for laying on him and doing little damage? Control is suuuch bullshit, how about actually trying to end it!

This is how I had it:

Round 1: 10-9 Rampage
Round 2: 10-8 Forest (barely a 2 point round imo)
Round 3) 10-9 Rampage (closest round of the fight)
Round 4) 10-9 Rampage
Round 5) 10-9 Forest

So I had it as DRAW, but I can't really complain with Forest getting the decision. I've seen much worse in my time.
