UFC86. I cannot fucking wait for this fight. Griffin vs. Shogun is one of my favorite fights ever. I'm pulling for Forest.

I'd rather see Griffin win...but I'm thinking that Jackson takes this one. Should be a pretty good fight though. I wouldn't expect some first round KO bull in this one.

I'm voting for the clean cut black guy.

I like Rampage when he's not in character. He's sharp in interviews and I'm glad he knocked Liddell the fuck out. Liddell looks ridiculously out of shape for that fight and deserved to get his ass handed to him.

I'm pulling for Forest cause he's white though.

Chuck has some serious drug issues and really has no business in the cage with the likes of Rampage at this point of his career.

Not to say that he's not dangerous but he's lost it.

He got caught up in that whole rock star lifestyle...

I hope Forest murders him. Literally.

I really hope there isn't an early stop on this one. I miss Big John so bad when fights like this come around. Both of these guys can take a beating. Herb Dean is prolly going to get this one and he's screwed up so many already.

Whoever wins is going down in a couple months once the Spider beats down a few 205ers.

Rampage all the way. Been watching him since '02 in PRIDE.

Yeah Chuck's got power and skill etc, etc, but still.. There's something disappointing in seeing a guy with such a paunchy stomach step into the ring...

Meh, I loved watching Butterbean fight. He's the exception, though.

I like both of these fighters, but I think Rampage is going to win this fight.

Griffin won't even make it out of the first round, which is too bad because I think he's hilarious.

I say we put some silver on it.

I will bet 1 million silver with *1* person that Griffin wins the fight. Anyone want to take that bet?

P.S.

I have to know you're good for it before I accept.

I'll take that bet. 1 million silvers on Rampage!

Jackson's a pretty big favorite. Nice bet Bregus!

I don't know that these should be up on YouTube because of copyright, but these are some vintage fights of Wanderlei Silva from PRIDE when he was in his prime.

Who is your character, Bregus? Is it Bregus? If so i've never heard of you.

Yea, I'm Bregus. If you're worried about me welching we can have somebody hold the notes..

That was another great fight. Rampage is gonna be limping for awhile, and every fight from now til he retires people will be going for his legs.

Meanwhile, Forest, even as the winner, looked like he ran into a truck four times. That's why I like him, he takes a beating. But he won't have longevity, I don't think, like Rampage has. You can't keep getting beat up like that forever.

Rematch outta be good.

Damn I'm awful at picking these fights. I should have a friend place wagers on the exact opposite of what I expect to happen. I'd be rich.

I can't beleive it went all 5 rounds. Crazy how one kick to the knee can help you win a fight, I love mma. How bloody was that Koscheck Lytle fight? Lytle is a badass. The Cote Almeida fight was a bit of a letdown. Pretty good card. Good fights coming up too, except who is going to pay to see a Bisping Leben main event at 4 in the afternoon?

They reshow it again at 10. So if you can stay away from a source that might ruin it you can pretend it is live.

hah. Good advice, Jahira.
