Most people give Forrest credit for his tough fights. He had some gifts up front, but he hasn't dodged anyone. I just think he's a ******, and I've never seen what's so appealing about watching him fight. He throws snowballs. There's nothing exciting about watching him fight for me.

Alves is out of 111 due to a failed CAT scan. Which means there's something wrong with his brain... Damn.

 

[daikkenaurora]

honestly what do you guys have against forrest? the guy got beat down by silva, but who hasnt?

He lost to ortiz, but redeemed himself. he lost to evans but again evans should have won that fight.

His worst lost was to jardine, but gsp also lost to serra.... _____ happens.

imo, forrest has been fighting some tough guys. i give him credit.

The same thing ticks me off about Penn. Noobs look at his record (15-5-1) and say his record sucks. They fail to realize that most of those losses were to champions at a higher weight division at the time. only one loss was at LW to Jens Pulver which was something like Penn's 4th fight in the UFC ever. and the rest were at WW or higher (machida).

I think people dont like his ears. lol

I liked him up till the Silva fight. Did I want Griffin to win yea, did I think he'd win NO. That said it looked like he quit in that fight(lazy slow kicks, and he had the look of fear after getting tagged once). JMO

Damn that sucks. I hope it's nothing too serious.

 

[Ktjn]

yes but that's the point. forrest will always draw a crowd and make $$$$. dana said this himself.

Exact same reason you still see Tito and Chuck around. I think Jardine may qualify too.

 

[occulum]

I think the hate on Griffin just comes from the lack of excitement in his fights. At least generated by him.

4 of his last 5 wins are by decision. over the past several years any buzz coming from his fights have been from his opponents. His wins have been somewhat boring long decisions.

I like Forrest, but dont look forward to his fights anymore for the most part.

That sucks man, I hope he comes back..

Alves isn't to bad. They're already talking about putting him on the next UFN or 112. He doesn't have enough time to get a second doctor's opinion before Saturday.

Ben Saunders will take his place against Fitch.

And his 2nd fight with Tito was a bit boring but that was because of Tito.

Yeah just saw that. Basically Alves' people are saying the problem was they didn't have enough time to get a second opinion so they just turned in the medical paperwork they had. So assuming he gets cleared sounds like he could be fighting next Wednesday.

Ben Saunders is gonna get dry humped for three rounds for a boring decision loss, watch.

I can understand that. I feel the same way I suppose...he doesnt really generate too much hype for his fights simply because of his personality. He's usually just like "yeah let's go in there and bang" and that's about it. I guess I just give him credit from where he came up to now.

My friends up in Vegas have met him around town just out and about a couple of times and they all said he's cool as hell to talk to in person away from the media which I think can sort of annoy him.

I've seen him at the gym and around town in various clubs; he is very cool and down to earth, and yes he is just awkward with cameras.

GSP vs Hardy --> Tomorrow !

 

[azurepred]

wish I could see it...........are there any good streaming sites anymore?

 

[Devil_666]

Try this tomorrow: https://www.livefootballstream.net/fights.html

 

[ArmoredFoe]

Tomorrow Frank is going to send Shane packing. I love GSP, but theres this part of me that would enjoy seeing Dan the the W.

As for Forrest...met him twice...total a-hole both times and during a QA in Georgia.

Nah, Dan is talking too much crap and he is also training with Serra... thats a double negative in my book.

Forrest can lose for all I care.

 

[nash]

I have faith in Hardy. dropping two bills on him.

And I hope Mir taps out the big boy.

What was the line they gave you on Hardy?

Hardy has a strikers chance.

 

[NASEDO]

I wouldn't mind seeing Hardy Win, but I imagine GSP will take the fight to the ground and smother him, just like he did with Penn and Serra.
