So I get two picks now?? Geoff Sanderson Scott Mellanby

Even though I'm Canadian, and was originally born in Montreal.... GO BJ GO! GO BJ GO!

I also think the 10 point must system is a very flawed way to judge a MMA fight, because of the controversey it has been causing since desicions and judges scorecards have been introduced to MMA. But the main problem is there is no other way really to judge the fight and it's the only way that makes sense.

He got a 10-8 round for buckling Rampage, and completely dominating the round from the opening bell to the end. Rampage did absolutely nothing on offense to warrant it being 10-9. There are other factors to judging a 10-8 round. There has been rounds in boxing that have been scored 10-8 round without a knockdown, because of pure domination of that round.

But Rampage also didnt do ANYTHING in the round to warrant a 10-9... Forrest also buckled Rampage very hard with that leg kick which is the main reason why I scored it 10-8.

Randy Couture(Forrest's trainer) scored it 10-8 as well... When a fighter comes close to finishing a fight, I think it warrants a 10-8. I'm a firm believer that 10-8 rounds are not used enough in MMA.

Here's how I scored the fight. Round 1: Although Forrest was winning the round until getting knocked down... I scored the round 10-8 for Rampages due to the knockdown. In boxing usually a knockdown warrants an automatic 10-8 round to the fighter who scored the knockdown, and thats how I score MMA fights as well. It wasn't like Forrest was completely dominating the round as well. Rampage 10-8 Round 2: Forrest completely dominated the round and buckled Rampage with a leg kick. I scored this 10-8, because of Forrests clear dominating this round. Rampage offered nothing on offense to prevent this from being a 10-8 for Forrest. Round 3: Rampage rocked Forrest a few times in this round... Forrest landed a few leg kicks, but I thought this was clearly Rampages round due to him doing the most damage this round. Rampage 10-9 Round 4: Forrest had a triangle choke attempt but it was never close to getting locked in. Rampage defend well and when he got the fight to the stand up he busted Forrest up, causing a good cut below the right eye. Once again you have to give this round to Rampage because he caused the most damage in the round, causing Forrest to get cut badly. Rampage 10-9 Round 5: Forrest wins this round, due to the fact he was outstriking Rampage the majority of the round. Where as Rampage was just trying to look for the one big punch to finish the fight. Forrest played it smart and avoided most of Rampages shots. Forrest 10-9 My final scored card 47-46 for Rampage... Close fight, but I really felt you couldn't give Forrest the 3-4 round due to the fact it was Rampage who did the most damage.

Either way, fighter bashing shouldn't be allowed and is very disgraceful... The majority of MMA forums don't allow it, so should this place

Although I promised I would stop the name calling, but you sir, are a n00b who has no idea about what a "REAL MMA FIGHTER" is... How long have you been watching MMA? Just this year? Rampage is overrated and boring? Yeah... Ok, was this the only Rampage fight you've seen? He has no finesse or real style? Yeah ok... That's why he went to K-1 Kickboxing and outstriked an accomplished kickboxer in Cyril Abidi, twice... Let's see Forrest go to K-1 and face an real striker. I think fighter bashing should be against the rules of this forum...

I'm sorry, but I think you guys are listening too much to Rogan blowing off Forrest instead of actually watching the fight. Rampage clearly won that fight... His punches were the more powerful and effective punches in the whole fight. Forrest threw alot, but Rampage displayed good defense. The only round were Forrest clearly won was the 2nd round. I had Rampage up 3 rounds going into the final round, the last round could've gone either way. I honestly don't know how people can score round 4 for Forrest... None of his submission attempts were really close. I mean if Diego Sanchez couldn't beat Jon Fitch, when he had him in closer submission attempts in their fight, how the fuck you gonna score that round for Forrest, when Rampage was out striking him that round, and even slammed him out of that submission attempt.

Huh? I see nothing about Franklin Vs. Wanderlei Silva...

The 1st friday is usually the best... Except for all the lame high school kids who are always fighting by the fountain.

Yo, RedBaron... Wanna duke it out at the Stampede? Just kidding, the pigs are everywhere around the stampede... I ain't tryin to get arrested. But are you going at all this weekend?

I guess no one can bitch about Bisping/Leben being a main event anymore...

Is it racist to hate people from Maritimes?

Can my team name be... "CG ain't got the heart to step to EHME in the streets"? EDIT: Are you going to the Stampede, CG?

Dude we are going to be done by this month... I don't get where all this we won't finish by October nonsense is coming from.

Of course I care about this show... Rampage is one of my favorite fighters, so I am pumped up to watch it. I think Almeida/Cote and Koscheck/Lytle are both very good fights as well... Very interested in them.

C.B. Dollaway Vs. Jesse Taylor is set for July 19th... Kinda suprise to see Dana give Taylor a 2nd chance so soon, I figured he'd make him fight in some smaller organizations before letting him in the UFC.
