nope, rampage is too powerful for griffin to be able to take for five round. forrests lasts way longer than he should, and even gets his share of punishment in, but he goes down in the middle rounds.

people seem to forget how good of a chin rampage has, the guy is tough and he can take a beating, he lasted way longer that he should have in both silva fights, and shogun would have put most other guys to sleep a lot earlier.

im a huge rampage fan but if you cant see that forrest can take rampage 5 rounds. your obviously blind. forrest has an underrated BJJ game, and i dont know if you saw the tito fight or shogun fight he has pretty good stand up as well. he also has a heart of a warrior who doesnt quit.
with that said i do believe rampage will win with a 4th round TKO.

I'm thinking Rampage will get the win 3rd/4th by KO.

My pick is Rampage by 2-3ed round ko and if it goes past that he will only lose round 5 maybe.
Another think people tend to forget is the Hendo fight where Rampage lost his finishing power after round 2-3. Rampage will do well in the standup until midfight when his explosiveness goes bye bye. If he uses his wrestling a little as the fight goes longer he should dominate.
Forrest has BJJ but I don't think he'll pull off a sub. Don't give me any crap about the Shogun fight because that was just a showy finish to a rocked demoralixed fighter who was out of shape. Plus it was at the end of the 3ed.
Forrests only chance is Rampage the hollywood wannabe movie star who underestimates him.

i dont know why, but i just have a gut feeling that forest is going to win. i do think that this fight has the potential to go 5 rounds

This is the fight I'm staying away from when it comes to putting money down. The one thing the show showed me, is that Forrest is a big dude. Surprisingly big. I mean Rampage is a scary fast athletic guy, but he's usually been the more imposing figure.
Another thing is, although the Shogun fight was very disappointing (on Shogun's part), Forrest showed that he is consistent in his technique and is well versed in all aspects of his game.
I'm thinking Rampage by decision.

I think Forrest can go the distance and take the win by decision. Like most of his other fights. He definately has the stamina, and he definately has a solid stand up game.

I think Forrest is actually going to win this fight. Like i've said before, i think he's going to end up submitting Rampage or taking it to a decision.

Im really tempted to change my pick to Forrest by sub. I think ill end up sticking with rampage though.

i really want Forrest to win but i don't know if he has it to beat rampage. Rampage has totall KO power and he has KO'd some of the best. And Forrest has good fast powerful hands but I don't think he would ever KO him but you never know he could get lucky like how Jackson got lucky with chuck. And then Forrest has enough stamina to go all five rounds and so does Quinton. I think its a toss up though it really could go either way.
