Shady_Champ Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 He's proven that he can take down big strong wrestlers with good striking(Rampage) He subbed a BJJ blackbelt(Shogun) Beat a strong wrestler in Sonnen and showed great TDD against Tito Ortiz. Forrest has the Chin, the size and the tools on the ground to sub Jon Jones. I think Forrest should only be 1 fight away from a title shot.. What do you guys think? Discuss.

StaySmartGE Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Agreed. Forrest should face someone from top 5 next. Maybe the winner of Matyushenko/Brilz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

storm22 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 i think forrest can also win this fight hes too underrated! i think they match him with thiago silva next or the winner of cotoure/machida and then either hell get a shot after rashad and rampage or fight one of them in a rematch fo the shot or the title depending on the title fight outcomes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRYME Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Forrest would smash his legs like he did to Rampage. He's just as big if not bigger than Jones, so Jones wouldn't be able to ragdoll him like he does with past opponents. Forrest by UD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultimatefightingchamp Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Forrest should fight Shogun, but no way he beats Jones, NO ****ING WAY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaySmartGE Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Anderson vs Forrest was a fluke to be honest. So we cant compare that fight to this one. If they fought again I would put my money on Forrest. He would use his size to grind a D win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shady_Champ Posted March 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Being a Silva fan I would put my money on the Spider, but I wouldn't count Forrest out. As long as he brings his heart this time in the fight it would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bright508620 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Forrest would be a good matchup i believe. I think he would have an amazing gameplan to stick and go. And maybe go for a couple of takedowns. In the end, i think Jones would win but i think Forrest would give him a run for his money. Way better than Shogun ever would. Shogun looked horrible.

ProfessorX Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I would disagree on that. Forrest would get beat up and tossed around. If he couldn't beat-up Tito Ortiz, and come even close to submitting him on the ground, JBJ is few notches ahead of him. Or finish Rich Franklin who looked in awful shape, he's not going to do much against Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leiting Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I think Jones would win against Forrest, but if there is one thing I've learned time and time again it's never bet against Griffin.

Forrest faced Rashad and Tito both better wrestlers than Jones and was able to keep the fight where he wanted. 2. Forrest has one hell of a chin. He wasn't KO'd by Silva just picked apart and demoralized plus he wasn't in his right frame of mind that night. 3. Forrest has more heart and Cardio then anyone @ 205 4. Forrest has brutal leg kicks(ala Rampage on 1 leg) and Jones legs would be an easy target. 5. Forrest has very good takedowns and good top control and BJJ black belt. *Bell rings* Okay class don't forget. Tomorrow we will have a class on why The MW division is in fact stacked!

Punisher2102 Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 love to see Forrest get a shot at Bones, think he needs a good win 1st maybe Nogueira/Davis or Machida/Couture winner later in the year, them get a shot at the gold next summer.
