Shogun via second round ringout

I felt Forrest had an somewhat easy path to the top facing Rampage and Rua at times when there was definite issues with both guys.
I dont see Forrest lasting against a “Shogun” at the top of his game, i know he can take a beating and has good skills and heart but this guy at the top of his game is in another league all together.
With his surgeries behind him and if he stays healthy and in shape he would finish Forrest by KO. The first fight was great for Forrest but Rua should no have even showed up, he was a fraction of the fighter he was in pride, for good reason though.

Ofcourse Shogun wants a rematch, it would be a good fight as was the first one, I would go with Forrest but eventually these two will meet again, if Shogun keeps his UFC job

forrest is still a top 5 guy at 205, he shouldnt fight guys that are unproven like jones, hamill or obrien. neither should shogun. forrest has thiago silva, who is very dangerous with his only loss being to machida. I think if forrest wins he gets the loser of evans-machida. shogun should get jardine, or maybe cane. although i think he will destroy cane. I would like to see shogun-houston alexander. if shogun wins his next fight, I think he will get a top 5 contender before the year ends. if shogun has improved his cardio, he will be a monster just like he was in his pride days.

I think it is too early for those two to rematch. There are still a lot of match ups for both fighters to take in the division before they need to cross paths again. Forrest has had more chances to fight the UFC’s roster, but he still can fight John Jones, Machida, Hammil, Vera, O’Brien, and Franklin. All of these guys pose decent threats to any fighter in the 205 division. Rua can have that whole list plus guys like Jardine, Page, and Bonner.
