round 1 = rampage 10-9
round 2 = Forest 10-9
round 3 = rampage 10-9
round 4 = rampage 10-9
round 5 = forrest 10-9

Final Score: Rampage 48 Forrest 47

This is what I honestly felt it was. The judges scored it 48-46, 48-46, 49-46 ??? ALL Forrest? What did you guys score it

God, TUF gets all the breaks because they're popular. Forrest the least legitimate champ ever.
thats what happens when adelaide byrd judges fights, things tend to get all screwy.

gotta say though, im of the opposite opinion, forrest pulled 3 of the rounds, if only for the reason quinton wasnt putting up enough of an offense when in his domain.
most times they got tied up, I kept expecting rampage to knock the shit out of forrest with some dirty boxing, somethin like that uppercut in the first. but shit dude, you really cant see them scoring it for forrest? and not cause of your predispositions, just look at the fight objectively and see if you can see the opposite side.

btw fuckin A, i didnt think forrest could pull this shit off, but i was sure jumpin for joy when he was leeching page's will to fight with those leg kicks

I was saying the same thing during the fight. You have to take the belt away. And that should be part of the judges mindset during a title fight. These judges weren't thinking like that.

I'm really not clear enough on how scoring truly works to know whether this decision was fair. I think anyone can see that Forrest was more active, but that Rampage did more damage. So what matters more? Personally, I had it at a draw, just barely. Anyway, any decision would've been somewhat controversial, since people place importance on different things.

Very possible that the fight should have been a 47-47 draw. But that's if you scored round 2 10-8, which really trivializes the significance of what a point deduction for being hurt means. Rampage was never close to being put out in Round 2. So why the point deduction? I'm asking a rhetorical question.

I've seen guys try and open cuts before, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone rub like that back and forth.
Nothing but Wandy's knees have EVER cut Rampage. Rampage would not cut. I did Tivo it, I did watch it, I did go over it with slow motion with friends, and it was the right call. Even guys obsessed with Rampage said he lost, and gave Forrest props. In a group of 50 people, I was the ONLY guy picking Forrest. One round went to Rampage, because he dropped Forrest, the rest, with Octagon control, submission attempts, POINTS (wide margin for Forrest there although they did not harm Rampage TOO much other than leg kicks), wow, you guys are delusional.

--Koscheck DID NOT cut is opponent either did he? In YOUR minds, you hate Koscheck, so he lost a decision. They called it wrong. Yeah, okay, maybe in YOUR minds if it makes you feel better. Chuck is my favorite fighter, all time, RAMPAGE KO'd him, one punch, then finished. EVEN if they stood it up, let Chuck recover, Rampage still wins. STYLE. Chuck just does not match up well to Rampage. Rampage is TOO STRONG in the chin. I was not crying.
