Rampage looks light he lost a lot of weight for this fight. He looked slow, and kinda rusty early on.
Could just be me, but it looked like Rampage asked Dana White if the judges were giving the decision to Forrest and Dana reassured him of something. Maybe a rematch?
Although Rampage was very gracious in defeat, he appeared disgusted with the decision. Its a tribute to him he did not steal Forrest's moment with an "I was robbed!" tirade. Instead he gave Forrest credit, even saying Forrest "whipped his ass", but didn't sound very sincere, in my opinion.
Koscheck/Lytle was brutal to watch. I can't believe Lytle's people let him continue fighting after losing that much blood.
This fight shows the extreme difference in refereeing we are seeing nowadays. Seems like with the recent trend in stopping fights prematurely they let this one go on way too long.
Why does everyone hate Josh Koscheck? Is it because he's good? Or does he have Tito Ortiz in his top friends on his Myspace page?
Why can't Tyson Griffin finish a fight? He's been winning but I think the reason he hasn't received a title shot yet is the brass are waiting for him to do something better than grind out decisions.
After watching the main event several times, I still think Rampage won. I just don't see how you edge out a title fight if your the challenger. To me the fight was a close decision for Rampage or at worst a draw.
Those scores for Griffin were pretty ludicrous. Not saying that its a bad decision, but those scores were certainly not representative of the action that took place. I can't understand how not one of the judges scored the fight for Rampage. That 49-46 score was pretty head scratching as well.
Congratulations to Forrest Griffin, and I can't wait for a rematch of this fight.
