Quentin comes in ""soft" and loses

[korey1980]

I said it from the beginning, he looked unfocused, and unready, and lost because of it

[Charlie Murphy]

I thought he won, but I admit I don't know much about scoring MMA fights, but your right, he did look a bit soft around the stomach.

[Cool2Fool]

He lost by some BS decision and it was his birthdayhhhhhhhh. Nevertheless, he's gonna parte.

[Charlie Murphy]

Yeah I remember him saying that, happy birthday Rampage!

Quentin is my fave fighter. He did look soft. I saw him winning 1 & 3, so yeah he did lose, no real convincingly tough. That'll teach him to come correct next time. No way, should he ever lose to Griffin, ever. I was humiliated, and lost a 50 spot. Work muther****er, work. I'm just as ****ed as you, believe me.

[korey1980]

I'm drunk as well, so I'm right there with you Shadio.

I thought it was fairly close, but in order to beat the champ, you gotta put him down or really give him a beating. I didnt see a scratch on Jackson. Griffen face and ear were a mess. The only round i think he won was the 2nd. He dominated him in the 2nd no doubt. Them knee shots roughed him up.

Again, you gotta beat the champ without a shadow of a doubt and i dont think he did. Rampage can fight next week barring his knee isnt really messed up. All he did was break a sweat.

I've been a Rampage fan since his early days in Pride, but I have to be honest and say that Korey is right. Rampage went into his training camp very out of shape and it showed in that fight. Rampage is twice as good as we saw last night, and he'll be back.

He wasn't robbed in that decision, I personally had it 47-47, but 48-46 is very understandable too.

[BANKY]

Forrest won, no ifs, ands, or buts about it. People can argue that it should have been closer, or even a draw, but you can't argue that rampage won that fight. Oh well, that's why they fight the fights.

[TDEEZY58]

Should have been 47-47. Forest only had Jackson in trouble once and that was in the second. You can't really argue that Forest won either. He looked like he got his a** kicked. Did you see his face?

[korey1980]

It was close, and couldve gone either way. Quentin was hurt several times in the fight by Forrests leg kicks.

[Goodfella2279]

I personally thought Forrest won the fight mainly because he did more. He controlled the tempo of the fight and was busier. Quinton did look soft, and he seemed wayyy too tentative. When he was actually aggresive, he was effective. The problem was those moments were too few and far between. But it could of gone either way. I don't think you can use the term robbery for this fight. Quinton in no way dominated any part of this fight. Both fighters had their moments and rounds 3 and 4 could have gone either way. I thought it was a very close fight and if Quinton would have won, I wouldn't of had a problem with that decision either. Bottom line-We need a rematch immediately!

By the way, I'm damn impressed at the typing skills shown by Shadio and Korey. When I'm drunk, I can't type for ****! :D Impressive.

If this was a three round fight that would be okay but it was for the championship. Did Griffin do enough to win a belt? If there has to be an immediate rematch why give Griffin the title in the first place. It's obvious the first fight was too close. If you can say the fight could have gone either way then the title shouldn't change hands like that. You had two judges give Griffin the round even though he almost got KO'd.

[Goodfella2279]

I don't agree with the old adage that you have to take the title from the champion. To me, it sounds like the champ can do less and still win the fight because he happened to come into the fight with the belt. The fighter that does more should win, and I felt that Forrest did more. Quinton looked somewhat lethergic and while he won 2 rounds, I don't think he won the fight. But I don't think that just because it's somewhat close that Quiinton should win by default. The champ should have to work just as hard. And in this fight, while it was close, Quinton didn't do enough, in my opinion, to win.
