Question

Griffin vs Jackson? Who wins and then who should be each of their next fights?

Answer 1

Griffin is going to wear Jackson down and submit him just like he sumbitted Shogun! I thing the winner of the Liddell/Evans fight should face the winner of Griffin/Jackson.

Answer 2

I'm picking Forrest for a come from behind submission victory. I think that if Rashad Evans beats Liddell, He will fight Griffin for the belt. If Liddell wins, I think a Rampage Liddell rematch could happen, with Wanderlei getting a shot at Griffin.

Answer 3

The longer the fight goes on, the better for Forrest.  He's a cardio freak. If Jackson wants to win and retain his title, he needs to come with heavy hands early. Griffin is known to stand and trade, but I don't think he has been hit with the caliber of punches that Jackson tosses.  Jackson will need to get a knock out or GnP stoppage by the end of the 2nd early 3rd round to win. Anything after that and Griffin will out work him. I don't think Forrest will lose any of the last three round if it goes that far, so decision is out of the question for Rampage.

My prediction: Rounds 1 and 2 will go to Jackson for superior striking. Rounds 3,4, and 5 to Griffin for out working Jackson and having better conditioning. Decision for the new Champion Forrest Griffin.  

That being said, we will either see Forrest go to sleep, or a long battle with Jackson gassing half way through the 3rd.

I think the next contender will be the winner of Evens/Liddel or possibly Wanderlei Silva depending what happens. I think that Wanderlei will have to fight Shogun, but I don't know for sure.

Answer 4

Griffen wins by KO at 3:47 of second round. Gos on to defend the title against the winner of the Liddel VS. Evans fight.

Answer 5

Rampage will be too much for Forrest on the feet and will TKO him late in the second rd.  Forrest is fun to watch but I think this will be a little too much for him right now.  Rampage showed in the Henderson fight that he has the cardio to go all 5 rounds so I don't think Forrest will be tiring him out to get the Win.

Next fight should be Machida, he's 5-0 in UFC and he beat Tito where Rashad only fought to a draw.  If Rashad beats Lidell then that changes things, he should probably get the shot and have Wanderlei and Machida fight for the winner of Rashad/Rampage or Rashad/Griffin.

Answer 6

i think forrest is going to be losing 2 rounds but he has conditioning and to much heart and hes gonna win by tapout or ko

Answer 7

it could go either way
