Jackson to win, bitches.
This card has a lot of potential, IMO. Lots of fights that may surprise us.
I think Jackson has this one, even though I fully predict Griffin making Rampage work for it.

Rampage vs Forrest will be truly epic.

It's certainly possible. I always cringe when I see the epic KO Jackson gave to Liddell.
That one was a jaw-dropper, and given how Chuck always seems to have such a tough jaw, a real shocker as well. Jackson has KO power no matter who he's up against, IMO.

I really hope Rampage and Forrest turns into an all out war something like Bonnar and Forrest 1. I am really pulling for Rampage but if turned into a war like Bonnar and Forrest I really wouldn't care who would win because the match itself would just be amazingly amazing.

I think this will be an awesome card. I am really looking forward to the Rampage/Forrest fight. I think it will be a war from start to finish and I will be rooting for Forrest all the way.
I believe Rampage will end up gassing probably late in the 3rd round-early in the 4th round and that's where Forrest will take full advantage. I am predicting either a KO or submission victory for Forrest.

I'm hoping that Jackson slams forrest into the matt and uses Griffins dumbo ears to slam his head into the ground.
EDIT: and wtf to having Gonzaga on the preliminary card? B.S tbh.

This will be the first UFC PPV I'll buy.
Lately, I've been getting into MMA and whatnot and I do remember Griffin v. Bonnar from the UF 1, which was unbelievable, and I've watched alot of Rampage, so I'm gonna buy just for this fight which looks epic.
Quick Question:
Do you get the Prelim bouts on PPV or are they just dark matches so to say?

Quick Question: Do you get the Prelim bouts on PPV or are they just dark matches so to say? If they have time after the main event (which they always do) they air a few of the prelims. The unseen ones will go on UFC's website soon after the show is over. I'm really looking forward to Griffin/Rampage. I really hope Griffin wins, but if I had to bet money, I'd go with Rampage. |

I think he's on the prelims because he's coming off 2 losses and isn't the most exciting fighter. Diego Sanchez and Arlovski were on prelims too after they lost, or in Arlovski's case, wasn't that exciting. |

JG IS A GREAT MAN. hahaha. Seriously though Grugel's okay. His wrestling is sub-par and his striking is mediocre. BUT I still like the guy  |
