I’ll check to see if it’s still on my DVR when I get home. The most objective analysis, probably, is that Rampage definitely won round 1, Forrest definitely won round 2, and the other 3 rounds were pretty close. I guess it could’ve gone either way but I’m a Rampage guy. Despite his little - ahem - incident the other day, I think he’s a really good person deep down. We all make mistakes and he made a big one, but I still love him. I do like Forrest, for the record, but I’m afraid he’s going to turn into a “fight not to lose” champion like Tim Sylvia. ---

[QUOTE=pravnik] Me too, although I would like to see Chuck beat him before he retires. [/QUOTE] If Chuck beats him next fight Liddell/Jackson3 would be huge. Who do you like like in a Griffin/Liddell match up? Oh yeah, fuck you Jeremy Jackson. Speaking of him going to prison, I remember an interview with Tyson after he got out and he said they tried him. No one is immune, the payoff (in power and prestige) is just to great. ---

The next fight would be Jackson/Liddell 3. Rampage has already (T)KO’d the Iceman twice. ---

Even though I was rooting for Forrest as the underdog, I think Chuck and Rampage are both better fighters than Forrest overall. Forrest just had Rampage’s number that night, just like Jardine had Chuck’s. ---

Chuck knocks out grapplers who fear his standup and are always going for that big (dumb) double-leg takedown. I think he would beat Forrest by decision. ---

Oh, damn, that’s too bad. I mean, it’s good that he’s getting help, but still, damn. Good luck, Quinton. ---

[/QUOTE] I’ve trained at his camp a couple of times and he’s always been a really nice guy, so I gotta pull for the Pit team. To each his own and all that, though. 🙂 ---

That’s awesome. I definitely would not turn down a chance to train with him. He’d have to fight someone truly loathsome (like Gilbert Yvel loathsome) for me to cheer for him, though. (Unless I had met him, of course - that changes things. I can see where you’re coming from. I got a different perspective on Matt Hughes after having a conversation with the guy, though I’m still not his #1 fan.) ---

I can’t see Forrest stopping Liddell either. It would be a good fight though. I like the Iceman enough. I really like Tito and honestly I though he should have won his fight with Chuck, imho. He seemed like he just stood there and took it when he should have gotten off the cage. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/jeremy-jackson-i-hope-you-rot-in-jail/456332.md?page=3)
