If he were fighting anyone other than BJ in his weight class, I would normally pick Joe Daddy because of his brute strength and his guillotine choke alone. But BJ is freakin Gumby and can squirm out, assuming Joe could even take him down with BJ's superb balance.

So Forrest seems the more common pick, but I have to agree. He's got the drive and the cojones to pull it off. He's always got the pucher's chance even though he is definitely not known as a knockout artist. Forrest is becoming a truly complete fighter now. Unfortunately for him, Rampage is a beast and end up man-handling him.

Forrest = 33% chance (but who's counting?)
Joe Daddy = slim to none

Joe Daddy has no chance. Forrest has a chance because he's tough as nails. Bet the farm on Penn.

hes showed up in all of the big fights in his career. hes was just a tough dude that got smarter with the right training which he now has. im not saying that forrest will walk on rampage but i think he will surprize people and i think this fight would be a better fight than randy vs fedor fight!

im surprised at how many people are picking Forrest...i dont think Forrest has much for Rampage honestly. he's not gunna be in better shape...plus Rampage has been 5 rounds, Forrest has never been there.

i guess you can say the same for BJ and Stevenson...but there is a chance that Joe could show up in better shape then BJ will...that wont be the case between Forrest and Rampage. and thats why i picked Joe, simply on the conditioning factor. and thats hard for me to say, BJ is my favorite active fighter hands down!!! LOL

I think Stevensons strength will keep his fight closer than the Griffith-Rampage. Which ironically strength is one of the factors that will be against Forrest against Rampage. Along with experience that will be why I don't think Rampage will lose. I think Rampage will do to Forrest for five rounds if necessary, what Tito did in the first round of thier fight. I don't see this being an easy fight for Penn. If penn can't sub Stevenson quick he might be in trouble.
