Seems like there are a lot of little white nerds predicting fights here. Well, first, its obvious Nog will win. Then Rashad will either dominate Griffin or knock him out, either which way it will be a convincing victory. Finally Rampage will whip Silva's ass, and quote me on "Whip his ass". I will be laughing out loud at thoseof you who think otherwise. Most of the opinions expressed here are trash. Seems like there are a lot of little white nerds predicting fights here.

When he got the shot against Rampage, I thought Rampage would win, I even said "I have mixed emotion, I'm glad he's getting the title shot, but I really don't want to see him lose." (not on here) In this case, I actually think Forrest's chances against Evans are better than his chances against Rampage, I hope he proves me right and wins. The trickiest thing about picking this fight is that both fighters have that "it" factor that they "always find a way to win." I’m a fan of Forrest, and I really would like to see him win this fight.

Have we not learned to not count out Forrest?? *devils adovacate* Rashad had zero chance v Liddell and looked what happened.. Jardine ko'd Griffin rather easily and he is Evans teamate Evans handed Bisbing his only loss ** Well Forrest trains with Wanderlei Silva and Silva ko'd Jardine in 36seconds it doesn't get much easier than that Gun I can see all points but everytime Forrest gets underestimated he wins sooo that's my point of view, plus I'm his fan...

I think the major difference here is the power of both fighters. Forrest has average power and gets you by repetetive shots where Evans has devastating one shot KO's with kicks and punches, Forrest IMO will get caught. Rashad is also very elusive,very hard to hit and Forrest moves well also but is more an in your face kind of guy.I pick Rashad. Josh V,

Here is how it shakes up: Big Nog wins by TKO Griffin wins by Dec Silva KO's Rampage again. Some guys just have the other guys number, like Silva does against Rampage.
