That was a fucking discrace. I didn’t care who won the belt before the fight, but after seeing the results, im not watching this shit no more. You have to clearly beat the champ to get the belt. Unanamous, give me a fucking break, who won the money betting on forrest.

I’ve been a true and loyal fan of the UFC from the very early days. I have watched the sport evolve into an impresssive and respectable sport. However, after last night’s transition of the UFC to the WWE, I am embarrassed to be a fan. I guess scripting fights to draw more money on a rematch is the new way of the UFC. I am not a disgruntled Rampage fan and like both fighters but that was about as WWE style as you can get. That was the last UFC fight I will watch. If I want fake scripted fights I would watch WWE, at least they’re upfront about the acting jobs. Congrats to the UFC of finally stooping to a new low!

WOW that’s a joke i can’t believe that all 3 judges gave that to Forrest. Rampage knocked Forrest down in the first round. Grant it Forrest hurt Rampage with kicks to the leg. BUT HE DIDN’T DO ANYTHING else the in the moment(he was on top of Rampage for over 3 minutes & didn’t do any damage on the ground),,,Rampage defended everything he had while he was hurt. Rampage landed the harder cleaner shots that backed Forrest up every time he hit him. Rampage was hurt the whole fight & still landed the cleaner/harder shots. That’s why the crowd BOOED Forrest at the end of the fight,,,you have to convincingly beat the Champ and he didn’t beat the Champ. Rampage is a good sport which is why he said Forrest whopped his a** and that’s just the way he talks,,,,but AT THE END OF THE DAY he didn’t beat the champ. Check out Forrest’s face after the fight that shows how much damage Rampage did to him. I was so shocked in the 4th round when Rogan said that Forrest was winning the fight it was such B.S. Even Goldberg was shocked at that comment his initial reaction said it all. He said “ARE YOU SURE”? & then afterwards he jumped on the bandwagon with Rogan as they both started to sway they’re commentating toward Forrest….I PRAY THAT THEY GIVE RAMPAGE A REMATCH…He definately deserves it because he unified the titles and in my eyes as well as everyone’s eye’s who were they’re at the fights eyes knows that Rampage didn’t loose that fight. That fight was easily 3 rounds to 2 QUINTON “RAMPAGE” JACKSON!!!!!

I do agree with you Cross anything can happen in MMA & that did cross my mind as well. It’s a definite possibility that Rampage can loose tonight because Forrest has good ground skills and above average stand up. But the only person that can beat Rampage tonight is Rampage & with the confidence he’s portraying i just don’t think it’s going to happen. Forrest looked very nervous during the interview & weigh-ins Rampage was as serious as a heart attack he wouldn’t even howl for ESPN…This is the biggest fight that Forrest has had in his career(first 5 round title fight)also it’s against the toughest opponent in his career. I just think the nerves & Rampage’s experience will get the best of him tonight. That’s also something that’s different between Forrest & Serra,,,Serra was a seasoned veteran who had a lot of experience. Forrest beating a gassed out,,,out of shape Shogun just isn’t enough to convince me that he can beat Rampage tonight.

I have seen ALL Shogun’s pro mma fights, and if you think that was the real shogun who fought Forrest than I should even waste my time arguing with you. Shogun fought to about 25% of his cababilities. Unless Rampage comes to fight tonight with a snapped ACL in 1 knee, not allowing him to train cardio, then Forrest wont win! I will check back on here tomorrow and see what Rock u crawled back under!

GUess what? Last I checked Matt Serra aint stepping inside the cage tonight! Serra actually has Ko power to cause an upset. Only chance Forrest has of pulling out a KO is maybe a perfectly placed kick, MAYBE! Rampage has a jaw like Cabbage!
