Ever since the Silva fight Forrest has not been the same. In one night he went from being a young hungry fighter to a fighter who almost seems to be just collecting a pay check. You can tell he is a very emotional person, and after the Silva fight he began acting very strange as opposed to just a little strange. imho

i really dont see why dana or tito are all bent outta shape over forrest interviewing tito i thought it was a nice little moment between the two after a trilogy fight, forrest didnt mean anything bad by getting the mic, i dont think joe minded it at all, so he ran out at first big deal, tito was active in small spurts of the fight the rest of the time he was just standing there what did he think was going to happen he did no damage to forrest on the ground forrest got up with relative ease. everybody whos hardcore bags on forrest its such bs, tito had his final day to shine and it turned out the way it did because of his actions not forrest

i mean really people are mad they missed joe rogan ask the same quesion to tito, forrest apologized to tito once the the whining started he never disrespect the guy hell he sat next to anderson and even apologized to him and congradulated him when he came to the press conference

Calling Tito vs Griffin the best fight of the night doesn't say much first of all considering what the rest of the fights looked like. Tito was gassed at the end of the first, Griffin was gassed midway through the second. Tito, besides a couple knockdowns, did what has become the norm for him lately, stand there and get punched a lot while offering little in return. Griffin looked really, really sloppy in his striking as well.

If you think that fight was good we clearly have very different criteria for what we consider good fights.

EDIT: If you liked Tito vs Griffin you must have loved Le vs Cote. I thought that fight was also awful.

I found it disrespectful. Forrest had this smirk on his face the whole time that really bugged me, I didnt find it genuine at all. Tito is a legit legend that started and finished his career in the UFC, 15 years, former record setting champ yadda yadda. He deserved his time in the spotlight win or lose. I was expecting a montage video tbh.

He deserved more then Forrest running away like a child, then coming back to give a fake ass interview.

I do agree that Forrest stole his thunder, and was a huge attention whore that night. But its not like losing to Rashad and Anderson fucking
Silva is something to be ashamed of lol.

Jardine, he either comes out swinging and gets the Ko or comes out and gets Ko'd, and its pretty clear to see whose more relavent in todays MMA world.

Exactly eh. Im not a huge Forrest fan by any means, actually my best friend is a huge Forrest fan and I hate it lol.

BUT the guy is a stud and has fought a fucking gauntlet of LHWs in Shogun/Rampage/Anderson/Rashad/Franklin and 2006 Tito, lets face it thats a pretty stacked list with 3 of those names being ranked #1 at the time.

Not to mention he fought big names like Dan Severn, Jeff Monson, Chael Sonnen, Travis Fulton and Jeremy Horn all in his first 10 Fights.

Forrest comes to fight..... Just sometimes he likes to run away after lol.

I have to agree. Le vs Cote was a more entertaining fight. I almost got the feeling Forrest and Tito won FoN as a parting gift to Tito from the UFC.

I didn't see a problem with it at all. I could tell Tito was annoyed but since when is Tito a respectful guy? Remember how respectful he was when Mark Coleman was retiring?

Never liked Forrest much, this didn't help...wtf did he run out of the cage for lol

In Dana's post UFC 148 interview, he said when he asked Forrest what he was doing, Forrest said he was upset at the performance and thought he lost.

It was just soooo bizarre, we did make a ton of jokes about it though, I'm not really a fan of either fighter, and Tito made his name as a badboy... So I appreciate the irony. Haha. But it really uncalled for.
