He's a sloppy striker still and doesn't have the chin to take Anderson's accurate punches IMO. Anderson is on another level.

yea he is pretty sloppy but forrest has no quit in him. Joe silva put this fight together so me and john can find out the truth lol

I was lucky enough to go to Banned tonight...first "fight" I have ever seen though been to many basketball/baseball, other sports before.

simply a spectacle. half the fun was the crowd gazing...you recognized people every 10 minutes

and the fights were crazy. i was told fedor was the best in the world right now, but didnt buy the hype when I saw him in person.

If you saw the fight (which really lasted 15-20 seconds, once they started hittin each other and finished the post-bell dance session around the ring) you know why I was wrong.

lol, I agree.

Well he has been knocked out before (twice). Anderson would definitely put his chin to the test. I just think mistakes vs. Silva = zZzzZzzZzzZz

RAMPAGE HAS GONE MENTAL??

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton Jackson (Pictures) was hospitalized Wednesday for mental evaluation less than 24 hours following his arrest on hit-and-run, reckless driving, and felony evading charges after a high-speed pursuit with officers through the California suburbs from Costa Mesa to Newport Beach.

Jackson had been released Tuesday evening from the Costa Mesa jail after posting the 25,000 dollar bail. He was detained by Irvine authorities at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday and was directly transported to an undisclosed area hospital for observation.

“A couple of friends flagged down officers in front of the Jackson home,” said Lt. Rick Handfield, of the Irvine police dept. “An acquaintance asked the officer to help because they felt Mr. Jackson might be a threat to himself or others.”

Handfield said the 30-year old fighter spoke with an officer outside his Irvine residence and was cooperative with their requests. Handfield would not disclose any further description of Jackson’s state.

A friend close to Jackson said the fighter had slept and ate little in the last few days.

It is believed that Jackson is being held for 72-hour observation under standard protocol for “5150” detainees, which is law enforcement vernacular for a “mentally unstable” individual. During the three-day period, the patient is not able to check himself out of medical custody while an evaluation is made. Medical officials could extend that period if they deem the patient is mentally unfit.

The light heavyweight kingpin known for his dynamic slams and power punches relinquished his crown over a week ago at UFC 86 “Jackson vs. Griffin” on July 5 in Las Vegas. A heavy favorite in the championship bout, Jackson (27-8) sustained a leg injury in an earlier round, but continued to stand and trade with challenger Forrest Griffin (Pictures). Griffin, a rival coach to Jackson on Spike TV’s “The Ultimate Fighter 7” this past spring, was awarded the unanimous decision and the title after five rounds.

One of the UFC’s most colorful personalities, Jackson had been tapped in March for a Nike commercial that also included NBA standout LeBron James, as well as other standout athletes.

According to a Costa Mesa police dept. press release Tuesday, Jackson was observed weaving his Ford pick-up truck in and out of traffic on a flat front tire while talking on his cell phone. When an officer on motorcycle attempted to pull Jackson over, the fighter continued driving, barreling through red lights and onto sidewalks on multiple occasions, “causing pedestrians to flee in terror.” Jackson collided with one vehicle during the pursuit and was later linked to two more collisions on the southbound 55 Freeway prior to the chase.

Jackson eventually gave himself up to police, who had their weapons drawn, outside a friend's home in Newport Beach.

Though authorities had originally stated that no one had been injured, the OC Register reported that a pregnant Huntington Beach woman was hospitalized after her car was sideswiped on the freeway.

Multiple attempts to reach Jackson’s manager, Juanito Ibarra, have been unsuccessful.

Jon Fitch will get owned, write it down. Everyone is saying this will be a close fight but I believe GSP will dominate the guy. Fitch last fight was very mediocre vs an average fighter, this fight will prove GSP is in a different catagory. GSP vs Anderson Silva is what I crave to see. Penn should stay at his weight class and start asking for a rematch with Gomi instead of GSP. Penn has proven he can go 3 rounds nonstop but noway he can handle GSP for a title fight 5 rounds nonstop.

Matches I love to see in near future or wishing

Faber vs Kid Yamamoto

Anderson silva vs Lyoto Machida( This will never happen since they're both friends, but both have very unique standup)

Fedor vs Coulture(just to prove the USA fans that Fedor is pfp champ)

vitor vs kimbo(dunno why always been old school and loved belfort, and just want to see someone pummel kimbo)

Kid (not a fan of Faber, and LOVE to see a Japanese fighter dominate him... especially to upset the dumb US fans.)
Silva (I kinda see Machinda like Aoki... both great and very technical, but when the shit hits the fan, or they get rocked, you'll see what they're really made of.)
Fedor (Ha, thats just mean... I hope Randy doesn't get hurt.)
Vitor (Well... come on, it's Vitor... if he's not having a bad day, then kimbo probably will have a bad night )
