    Forrest came into the fight and worked harder than rampage to get the win. Many people predicted rampage winning by knockout but for anyone who watched the fight should notice that forrest used his leg kicks and takedowns to get an advantage on the scorecards to win the fight. Many fans feel like rampage got his belt stolen by forrest because you have to beat the champion, but if you are a "REAL" UFC fan, you know that thats exactly what forrest did by utilizing his kicks, takedowns, and just outworking rampage to seal the victory. Congrats to Forrest Griffin, I watched him come up from the beginning and will continue to be a griffin supporter.

    Interesting POV Phaz...

    "Many fans feel like rampage got his belt stolen by forrest because you have to beat the champion, but if you are a "REAL" UFC fan, you know that thats exactly what forrest did by utilizing his kicks, takedowns, and just outworking rampage to seal the victory".

    IMO, Forrest won the title fairly by being more aggressive, octagon dominance, and those kicks!

    I know people are saying that Rampage should have kept the title because Forrest didn't KO or submit him. But a champion has to earn the right to keep his belt. There are no fiefdoms in UFC. There is no "Well, he didn't beat him ENOUGH to take the title". Two guys step into the ring. One wins. One loses. There's no such thing as sympathy wins.

    Anyway, I liked your comment Phaz.
