Alright well most UFC watchers should be psyched for tonights fight and I'm surprised there hasn't been a thread made (probably has) but it's getting closer to the end, and everyone at my house is pretty much rooting for Griffin and I've been a Griffin fan for the longest time but I love quinton as well but sadly, I'm too biased towards Griffin so I have almost no choice in the matter.

I like Quinton but I like Forest more so he gets my vote.

Disagreement? Agreement? Speculation? IT GOES HERE!

it's hard to say, if it's short it's Rampage if not it's more in Forrest's favour

i've been a Forrest fan for a while, pre-tuf days, i know trainers, Rory and Adam Singer. tho Forrest is no longer with that camp. it's the same one that Cale and of course Rory belonged to, since Rory owns the school, they weren't allowed to mention the school at all

Alright well....

I was scared, this match was so damn even, that if either one made a mistake it's over. This was awesome, definitely one of the best fights I've seen, it's in my top 5.

Sorry to all the Rampage fans, he's an awesome fighter and I respect him, but I'm a forest fan at heart so I just couldn't be happier.

] I'll skip the details...It's FOREST! Man, close, he won by about two points, but it was still unanimous (by 1 or 2 points

Unanimous
1. of one mind; in complete agreement; agreed.
2. characterized by or showing complete agreement: a unanimous vote.

How can he win by everyone voting for him if it's point based?

TheNecroswanson, unanimous means the judges are all in agreement.

Awesome fight! Wow! ;-)

Well I don't know if I should be insulted here since it looks like you are mocking me..but..I'm sure it's just a misunderstanding.

Anyway...

what he said!

Judge1: Rampage 46 - Griffin 48
Judge2: Rapage 46 - Griffin 48
Judge3: Rampage 46 - Griffin 48

Unanimous.

Not sure if that's the exact scores that were given but either way, in the context the UFC uses it it means that the judges all agreed that Forrest is the winner.

I think Forrest won because he had Octagon control, I know they usually boil down to just 1 or 2 points that decide the match if it isn't a K.O. or tapout, but this one was a tough fight to judge, went all 5 rounds and man, that fight made them seem like both had their "ups and downs".

I thought the fight was closer than the judges scored it, but I still felt that Forrest won the fight anyway so there was no crime committed. ;-) That said, that was fight of the year material right there. Amazing.

Maybe MMA will get more attention on this site when they release that UFC video game. ;-)

Like how you misspelled Indecisive... Pretty much explains how I feel about people who watch that stuff...

In the business, we call that an "Oh, Snap!" response.

I think this thread has served its purpose.
