More than just kicks. Rampage was laying and hoping to catch Griffin in the exchanges. And Forrest was landing shots of his own. He was backing Rampage up with his offense, and Rampage had no answers.

Did you watch the fight? There was 2 or 3 times in the 3rd round where Rampage had him stunned and atleast once in the 4th and 5th where he did

Yes, and The Invincible Rampage never showed up. Dropped Forrest with an uppercut and never showed much of anything after that.

he got picked up because rampage is a beast. took him a while longer than the last time he had that chance tho.he didnt look like he was going to be able to stand with him

well with so much leg damage and being so dominately choked one has to figure that the damage wasnt that great....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif noway that fight was a 2 or 3 round win.

ufc thinks they can buy the market and the fighters though which will end up being bad. if they don't follow suit the other orgs will pick up steam and leave them behind, WEC, Elite XC and the rest will allow the fighters to have more control than the UFC not only that but if the other orgs pick up the universal weight classes (10 lb classes) the ufc will be losing talent out to the other orgs just due to training/cutting weight saftey so alot of fighters can fight at their natural weight. they dont have 135 or 145 lb classes and as of right now WEC has the 2 best in the world in those classes.

Ummm Im pretty sure UFC/Zuffa owns WEC

 

[audiolife 5,000+ posts]

zuffa owns it but there is less control from what they say.

Just so you see where i am coming from UFC has so much control on who fights where and when the only thing they dont control is the outcome.....many manager types actually compare UFC to WWE in that reguard..that is why so many Pride guys left and many didnt stay. Fedor WON'T ever join UFC and that is also why Randy Couture left. Soon as his UFC monoplized contract is up that fight will happen.

Look what the UFC is doing with Lesnar...throwing him to the dogs against Mir and now Heath Herring?? (Mir was his second fight this next one is his 3rd) Give the man some fights against a scrub or two first dont go throwing him to the lions just yet!

How so, even after he beat Chuck, Chuck still got more face time, and alot of people where saying early stoppage or lucky punch, nobody was like yea he just beat chuck plain and simple, heavens no not the Face of the UFC, when he fought dan henderson, they didnt market the fight that well at all, plus cable tv FTL(FTW for us) and the only reason this fight was hyped was because the UFC wanted somebody new to push rampage out...UFC FTL

jesus christ HAHA

they didnt want to push him out. do you have any clue what kind of $$$$ they paid to get him to leave PRIDE.

I'm a huge liddell fan and thought he was gonna beat on Rampage, but rampage straight beat his ***. He was out cold. If you read his his lips when he comes too on the mat, he says "what happened?"
