I like how you’re assuming Forrest will still be champ…NEWS FLASH…he won’t be after UFC 92. Rashad is going to work Forrest over and then bring on the winner of this fight.

WAR RASHAD!!!

I notice that Wandy, as well as a lot of other fighters, have really started doing more of the caveman style training that you see Sherk and Lesnar do.

Josh- lmao. John will never learn to spell lose, loser, or losing. I think we just have to accept it.

uhhh ok? that’s why Rampage’s face looked like he just got done having dinner while Forrest’s looked like he just got put thru a meat grinder.

Look Rampage lost because of his dumb energy drink diet and Forrest’s sudden improvement. WE all thought that the Shogun fight was a fluke because here was a fighter who had just got destroyed by Jardine and looked awful in doing so. Now that he has two straight big wins though, it’s clear that Forrest has changed his style of fighting and he’s a much different fighter.

Forrest never won that fight tho…

hahaha you wish buddy!

My sources tell me that Rampage looks PHENOMENAL right now while training over at Wolfslair. Rampage is going to be tunnel focused to a ‘t’ and he’s gonna come in and finally get the retribution that he deserves after getting jobbed in two fights back in Pride. Steroids and bad ref’ing are the only reasons why Wandy won them…

except wandy doesnt have the lenght that forrest does. his leg kicks wont be that much of an advantage. if rampage isnt insane, fat, and learns a new way to dodge punches (aka not duck his head cause he is vunerable to knees) then he takes it.

why would you give away anything, it does’t matter if it was only for a video game.

I’m inclined to agree John. I think Wanderlei might maim Forrest if he gets past ‘Page. Then again Forrest is always an underdog and seems to pull a win out of nowhere, but he’d have to get Wanderlei down and just wrestle him most of the time. On the feet he’d have to be in and out jabbing and popping him with a few low leg kicks to try and outpoint him and hopefully set up a quick clinch and sweep.

That being said, I can see Wanderlei getting inside that range and smashing Forrest. Forrest is very much like Couture, in that neither are really scary fighters. Neither possess knockout power, or a crazy sub game like a Hazelett or Maia, (though Forrest’s ground game is somewhat underrated, no one mention the RNC on Shogun). Don’t even really think either have viscious g’n'p, definitely not Forrest anyway. But they both outwork they’re opponents, tire them out and then maybe ride it out to the finish and get the decision or look to finish because they’re opponents are exhausted. You can never count Forrest out I have learned.

Still I say Wanderlei by viscious KO against Forrest after decapitating Rampage.
