Im finding it hard to pick a winner in this one, maybe leaning slightly towards Griffin to take a decision due to being better conditioned.

Any thoughts?

everytime i pick against either one, they both end up winning. I would make Forrest the favorite because i think his chances increase exponentially if he gets Rashad into the later rounds.

that early in the rounds, i can see Rashad's movement and speed giving forrest some problems standing. Rashad can take a good punch, and forrest doesn't really possess 1 strike KO power, so i can see Rashad taking a shot or two to try and land something big.

i'm leaning toward Forrest by late stoppage due to Rashad gassing, but i wouldn't be surprised if Rashad landed something to end the fight either. this fight is going to look like a HW against a MW though. lol

Evans takes this one by KO

I have Evans for this one.

dejavu to Keith Jardine fight, another he knocked me the **** out speech, Evans by early ktfo

I hope they throw him to Wanderlei either way. This way there will be no speech, only a stretcher and lots of phlegm pouring out of his mouth.

Hah, Wanderlei-Forest would be a slaughtering.

Don't they train together at Extreme Couture?

or so the rumors go.

^you see the Wanderlei-Rampage winner getting the winner of Forrest-Evans?

I agree with all of this post, unfortunately the bold part aswell for some strange reason.

Yep. Then that winner will more than likely face Rua. Wanderlei is back in business.

evans need a big ko then go fight anderson silva

griffin once he loses can rematch rampage for number one contender spot. if rampage beats silva..

Rashad is an extrodinary athlete and Forrest has exceptional heart... but to me the big difference is skill and well i think Evans has Forrest in that aspect and it will ultimately decide the fight... Evans KO2

yeah had a brain fart, this just occurred to me this fight is between the winners of Season 1 and 2 of the Ultimate Fighter.

pretty cool
