Unanimous? Seriously?

That's kind of the way I feel, Joe kept saying how Forrest won 10-8 in round 2, but Forrest never hurt him, and in the 1st Forrest was so close to being done. Either way I think Forrest won, but deffinitly not that close, i'm glad Forrest won because maybe they'll get a rematch right away, I HOPE SO that was a wicked fight.

3 I would give to Forrest. 4 and 5 were so close I couldn't call it. You could argue in favor for both fighters. Round 2 was complete domination and to me was a 10 8 round in Forrest's favor.

This is CRAZY! I never thought Forrest would ever be the world champion. But hard work and a good gameplan can do alot.

IMO Forrest didn't have much of a gameplan, just wasn't stupid when striking, he threw nice leg kicks but everyone knew that was coming, good but obvious gameplan I guess.
Still IMO think this was a WAY closer fight then it was on paper people deffinitly underestimate Forrest though, including myself.
Good job to him.

PS: Joe just said you can't say the Shogun fight is a fluke anymore, why does he kiss Forrest's a$$ so much? Shogun and Rampage are 2 different fighters, and it still deffinitly was a fluke, not the fight but the fact Shogun came in such bad shape.

Great fight .Congtats to Forrest . Hopefully the rematch will be soon . Very entertaining and close fight.

[SmashingMachine]

Yeah, never thought it would play out this way...but, we should've learned not to underestimate him after he beat down Shogun. Kudos to Forrest. I'm happy for him. What a great fight!

'Page seriously needed a 2-minute drill at the end of the 5th. He should have just thrown caution to the wind and gone for it. That 2nd round probably shouldn't have been 10-8, but Rampage shouldn't have risked it.

ugh, Goldy is p*ssing me off. One of the greatest main events ever? No, no way dude.

I actually scored it a draw.

Rampage-Forest

Was very close anyway. Just did not see it as a clear win for Forest
Big gratz to Forrest.
One of the best fights I seen this year.
Great heart to keep fighting with those early leg problems.

I think the main event was great actually. Rest of the card was really bad though.Really supriced with so many god fighters.I even fell asleep for a few minutes in the middle of the show.

Yeah, even with a 10-8 second, I got draw too. No way it should have been unanimous. Split decision or a draw for this fight.

Round 2 and 5 were forrests. Round 2 was not a 10-8. Forrest did not do enough damage to make it a 10-8. I dont agree with the decision , but i'll accept it. Lost 2 million points which always sucks. Overall , was not happy i spent $45 on this event.

[Buddha's Buddy]

Are you effing kidding me?!?! I can't find the logic in the scoring. Round two I give to Forrest 10-9. Good leg kicks, and stayed on top, but no meaningful damage. Rd. 5 was close so I'll give that to him too. Rounds 1, 3, & 5 go to Rampage definitely. 48-47 Rampage.

My biggest problem with round 2 being a 10-8 was that Forrest could have, but didn't posture up while in the mount. Rampage was not holding him down. Forrest missed the opportunity and didn't inflict much damage --> not a 10-8

Exactly how i saw it. In order to win a belt by decision one is supposed to convincingly win the fight. Which Forrest did not do. But oh well. Let the Tufers have their day.

[T-Bone]

toss up...tie goes to the TUF poster boy.

[Rumbin]

The most "damage" in R2 was a leg kick and a kimura attempt, hardly a 10-8

10-10 rd 1
10-8 rd 2 Forrest
10-9 Page
10-9 Page
10-9 Forrest
48-45 Forrest

Is how I scored it. Not trying to start anything, but I don't see how you could've scored rd 2 any different. Page went down because of the beating his left leg took and then Forrest gnp'ed him for the rest of the round. It was completely dominant.

Instant rematch?

[Buddha's Buddy]

At least both were real classy in their post fight comments and Forrest opened the door for a rematch himself. Still......300k. D A M N Y O U, F O R R E S T!!! D AM N Y O U T O H E L L !!!!!
