Where do you get your odds at ? No way was he underdog vs Bisping considering Bisping just got whopped by Hamil and Evans drew with Ortiz.
Rashad will beat Forest but it will be a points thing or a flash KO, Forrest is a heartly fellow but the fact Keith Jardin who is Rashads training partner stopped him cold tips the scales in Rashads favour, yet this is a hard one to call, but Rashad has never been Ko'ed not even in the HW division which is were it should have happened if it was to happen at all. This will be a good fight regardless of who wins IMHO.
this fight is bull**** any way non of these guys should be in title fights right now. im sorry griffen shouldnt have had a title shot with a 2 fight win streak. i guess rashad is a decent but still drawing tito 2 fights ago to me says not ready for a title shot. chuck is at the end of his carrer and is 1-3 in his last 4 so beating him dosnt hold the same value.
I got rashad winning griffen. I just ain't sold on griffin being a title holder. All i am saying are these fights coming up are going to be sick!!!!
I actually think Forrest takes this one. Regardless of Rampages mental state, that is a better win than any on Rashad's resume. I think Forrest takes Rashad into the late rounds and wins a UD. I can't see Rashad knocking him out. Forrest took Rampages best shots and still won the fight, and Rampage hits harder than Rashad. Plus Forrest can come with a gameplan and stick to it as in the Rampage fight and I think he'll do the same in this one.
that's why I'm counting on Griffin here, the guys always follow his gameplan, thats why I think he will beat Evans ,by being patient, and following his gameplan, and make no mistake.
Rashad definatly deserves it, he has done more than Lyoto record wise, who I know you are implying should be the one to get the shot. More importantly he actually finishes his fights. Forrest went out and destroyed a top 3, arguably #1 LHW in Shogun, and then won a close but good victory over Rampage. Lyoto couldn't finish Sam Hoger, David Heath, Nakamura, or Tito. The one fight he has finished in the UFC was against Sokodouju, who has turned out to not quite fulfill his expectations. If he would go out and finish fights he might have gotten the shot over Forrest. Lyoto will get the next title shot if he beats Thiago Silva, which is far from a sure thing.
Evans aint gony get by Griffin never mind beat guys like Nog & Fedor, the 2 greatest HWTs in MMA history. What a pile of horse**** by the thread starter, I hope he was joking.
