Rampage is going to Knockout Forrest! My upset special for this card is Chris Lytle over Josh Koscheck(but I could change my mind but I am pretty set on that fight)

Not the greatest card, but w/e. Rampage by TKO.

You guys are trippin. One of the best fights on this card hasn't even been mentioned. Tyson Griffin vs. Marcus Aurelio. How could anyone not be excited to see this fight? Also Joe Stevenson vs. Gleison Tibau should be an awsome display of ground and pound or submissions. Both don't like to stand have have a good gnp. The title fight will be great just because the anticipation let alone the match up! My Opinion is all the main card fights will be good fights.

I've had a nagging gut feeling that Griffin will take the belt from Rampage. I want Rampage to win, but I don't think he will. If I'm right, watch his next fight be against Wanderlei.
