Does Griffin have a shot?

[alstott40]

Here are the retarded scorecards:

Adalaide Byrd who scored it 48-46, gave 4 and 5 to Jackson and Griffin 1, 2 and 3 with 2 as 10-8

Nelson Hamilton had it 48-46 with 1 and 4 for Jackson, and Griffin getting 2 10-8

Roy Silbert had it 49-46 with only round 4 for Jackson.

How 2 judges gave rd 1 to Griffin is beyond me.

My thought exactly how the judges  49 46 and not 49 48 is beyond me they made it seem like Rampage wasnt there

I really thought that the cards could go either way. I never expected such a lopsided UA.

Rampage clearly won rd 1, and Griffin clearly won rd 2 (10-8? maybe) ............ I liked Rampage in rds 3 and 4, and Griffin in rd 5, but all three of the final rounds were close.

Rampage didnt clearly win  round 1 just because of one good shot that put Forrest on his butt.(in boxing but not MMA)  Forrest won the first 3 minutes easy and landed some nice leg kicks which is what changed the fight. If a round looks pretty even the judges always lean to the more aggressive fighter in the round.

I think Griffin clearly won but yes, the first round was clearly not his.

Im thinking no,  Rampage should win this by tko, unless Forest moves and trys to be like koschek in the diego sanchez fight, hit and run

One of the better fights ive seen in  a while. I was really shocked to see Forrest as the aggressive one the whole fight.  Great fight overall IMO.

[MrFreakinMiyagi]

 The leg kicks hurt Jackson, and exposed him for what he is....a big time puncher, with little else.

Yes, he can only be referred to as the strongest man at LHW. Really exposed.

The only damage that Forrest inflicted was with the leg kicks. He was on top of Rampage for the entire second round, and did nothing with it at all.

The fight was much closer than the scorecards indicated, IMO.

As goofy-looking as he is, Griffin isn't a chump. This will be a "slobberknocker", as Madden would say.

So who won??

[alstott40]

Griffin won by unanomous dicission.  Great fight I didnt know Rampage was so one dementional, worth the money though great fight it kept going both ways

Rampage did clearly win rd 1. He almost knocked him out on one occasion, and hurt him badly on another. That is plenty enough to win the round in boxing or MMA.

Forrest landed a few leg kicks. Rampage almost put him out. Advantage Rampage.
