Griffin hung tough with Rua. I think he can do the same with Jackson. Griffin will let Jackson tire himself out by pounding the shit out of him for 4 rounds. Then Griffin will move in for the kill.

Rampage is a lock for ufc 86. Rampage is pound for pound one of the best fighters in the world vs forrest an overrated reality star fighter.Anyone who saw rampage knockout Liddell in the first round, or the 5 round war he had with dan hederson knows rampage is the real deal. I would be shocked if forrest makes it past the 2nd round. The line is at around -260 right now which is a steal it should be at least -320/-350.There is no way forrest wins this fight, take rampage and enjoy some free money.

I concur sir. In fact he has made me some nice coin the last time I wagered on him.

Since I heard about this matchup I have thought there is no way Griffen can win. Lately I'm not sure what it is but been changing my mind. Rampage doesn't look in great shape to me for starters, looks like he's going have to cut weight. Also I detect a sense of overconfidence in him, like he already knows he's the better fighter and is going to win. I don't know, might just be my imagination but waiting for the best price I can get on Forrest and going to take a shot. I've changed my mind of late.....

The fact that Rampage admitted that he doesn't condition, makes Griffen a little more enticing as the winner. But, several months have passed since the final episode of TUF, so more than likely, he has had to get himself into the gym and get back into shape.

Either way, this is going to be a fun fight. We are looking forward to it.

Everybody's on the Rampage bandwagon since he beat up Chuckie. But when he was in Pride he showed some serious flaws, one of which is his conditioning. He seems to have gotten better in the past couple of years but Griffen is no slouch and I'm sure he's going to be in the fight for the duration.

If Rampage can keep Griffen on his feet, he might have a chance. I have a feeling that while Griffen's face will be beat to a pulp, he has the advantage if the fight goes beyond two rounds.
