Im pulling for tito for sure.I dont know why but I have never been a forrest fan i never will. DOnt get me wrong he seems like a nice guy just not a fan of his in the fight world.

Tito is definitely nowhere remotely close to the level Silva is on.

Tito takes this. In their first fight I thought Tito dominated Forrest in the first round(it should have been a a 10-8 rd imo), and gassed out the last two. He also was fighting with the "back problems" and a knee that was blown out. I think Tito is a better fighter to be honest, but their first fight was close enough, so I could be wrong.

Forrest is also much more experienced now than he was in their first meeting.

That's true but Tito is also healthier than last time (if you believe the hype). If Tito can take Forrest down, Tito will win. I think the area that Forrest has improved is his standup, which won't help him if Tito can take him down. Having a bad knee and back prevents explosive takedowns. It can go eitherway but I think Tito takes this.

I really don't know how Forrest is going to go in this fight, i mean i know he's a pretty good fighter but every time his name is mentioned i just think of the guy that got completely embarassed by A.Silva. I know, i know Tito is NOTHING like Silva but i just have this image of Forrest looking awful in the octagon that i can't block out. I'm saying Tito for this fight by UD or possibly GnP stoppage, Forrest doesn't have the punching power or the wrestling to trouble Tito if he's 100%.

disclaimer: not a fan of either fighter in case i come of sounding bias.

Its going to be very interesting. I really want to see Tito win just so we can have a Couture vs Ortiz rematch. Now that would be crazy! (So I'll be pulling for Tito; though 9 times out of 10 I normally dont)

Tito by ground and pound in second round is my prediction. I expect Forrest to be gun shy and to throw kicks quite abit, Tito will read one and take him down like he does and then let the ground and pound begin.

Not a big fan of either but think it should be a good fight and really expect Tito to take it to Forrest as forrest will be feeling the pressure to perform considering his last fight.
