    Am i the only person that finds Okami about as exciting as a turnip? Business as usual for Anderson. He wins this by whatever he wants.
    Would be good to see Rua back in the win column again. But im not so sure. I think Griffin does the same again.

    I'm not making any predictions in this thread. I'll save them for another.

    Remember what happened the last time Anderson faced a fighter with good wrestling coming off a win over Marquardt.

    I've wondering if Griffin is just a tough fight, style wise, for Shogun. It hasn't been long since Shogun's last fight, so I don't think his conditioning will be as bad as it was for his first encounter with Forrest. I keep hearing about Griffin's underrated bjj. Could we see an action packed grappling match?

    He is neck and neck with Jake Shields as the most boring fighter in the history of sports.

    The Shogun Griffin fight will prove my theory about the need for ring-to-cage transition fights before fighting a quality opponent. If Shogun wins that is...
