If it goes to a decision "Griffin" the Golden Boy will win. No matter what. So let's hope Rampage knocks him out and removes all doubt.
I have no opinion about the rest of the card just yet. Except that I think Clay Guida beat Tyson G. in the last fight I saw them in. But the judges were clearly watching something else.
Forrest v. Rampage --- TKO/KO 3rd
Lytle v. Koscheck --- Decision Tyson Griffin v. Aurelio --- Decision Almeida v. Cote --- Submission 2nd Joe Daddy v. Tibau --- KO/TKO 1st
How can everyone say that Forrest is ahead on Submissions,, not to say that Rampage is good on subs, but Forrest choked out a Shogun that was about to pass out anyway, evveryone who knows shoguns caliber will agree that he wasn't the same shogun we know, in the forrest fight,, I really don't think forrest has much of a chance in this rampage fight,, he is not going to sub rampage,, so that pretty much is his only hope, I realize anyone could get caught and knocked out but I would say Forrest has a 10% chance of winning this fight,, just my opinions,
Forrest's ground game has always been good. He & Horn had a freakin' amazing ground war at Global Domination and he did really well against Bonnar when their first fight went to the ground. He does have the edge on the ground. His sub game is really good and was seriously underrated for a long while. Rampage is one tough guy to sub, though. Arona & Bustamante couldn't do it, neither could Mikhail.

That is why I think the only way Forrest can win is by DEC
I'm picking Rampage to beat Forrest, but I think Forrest will put up a way better fight than some people may think. I think he will be utilizing his reach advantage with jabs and leg kicks to maybe keep the rounds close. Although eventually I think Rampage will find his rhythm and finish Forrest in the second or third round.
This fight is hard for me to predict actually.
