OMG!!! Rashad Evans is the real deal!!! Great fight Evans is a true fighter and has earned the Belt. Congrats…
Like I said b4, forrest did not deserve the belt by a decision, you gotta earn it & he could not even defend it last night, what a putt.. Rampage will kick rashads ass, so enjoy it whiles it last rashad..
Go Rashad! Forrest winning the title was a fluke to begin with. Maybe Rashad can actually hold on to it for a while.
Thanks for getting fight up so quick, great fight but Rashad showed his athletisim and power. Forrest has alot of heart I give him credit for how much his game has improved over time but Rashad came up the ranks the hard way too. and has impoved every area of his game to truly be the dangerous champion he has become.
Great fight. Thanks for posting.
griffin was leading until he got caught. well, that’s mma. i’m first. beat black gerbil.
damn great fights tonight. lets see rampage vs evans!
Awesome fight. Thanks for posting!
gotta love the sugar, he has been whoopin ass lately. and forrest is nice guy but i dont believe he beat jackson so i’m glad it end with out question( all title fights should go to the champ if its close, you gotta beat the champ to be the champ) congrats rashad take it easy for a day and then you better work on your jitsu because everyone wants you now.
good faight
Had a feeling it would happen this way. Forest has shown us that weak chin in the past with Jardine.
Very gracious in defeat as usual and we will see him in the top five for awhile.
So now the stage is set for Sugar Rashad Evans vs. Quinton Rampage Jackson for the 205 lb Championship … but what was Evan’s doing taunting in the second after he’d just eaten some good punches and several knees. He took advantage of a mistake but he’s not that good. If he wants to stand and trade with Rampage he’s going to sleep.
Looked like switched worlds, Forrest dictated the stand-up and Rashad destroyed him on the ground…I cannot hide that I’m a little dissapointed by Forrest loosing on the ground..
Good fight anyway, great character shown by both!
Man, those finishing shots were HARD. I’m surprised Forrest was still lucid after those. War Rashad.
Evans keeps getting better and better. The first 2 rounds he had trouble finding his range. I thought Griffin might catch him with a triangle or armbar tho when it went to the ground.
Rashad fucked him up the third round…first and second belonged to forest tho…Good fight
I think Rashad will hold the title for a longgggg time. He’s got GSP-like athleticism
Black people hit hard lol
Great fight! Evans is a monster! It’s difficult to beat a guy who can throw back everything you throw at him with three times the power. Forrest was doing well. Very technical, very smart. But Rashad needs only one hit to destroy anyone. Naturally superstrong AND with a good technique!
You need a superstrong GSP to beat this guy…
I never liked Forrest. He is an overrated fighter who didn’t deserve the belt. I can’t believe he was given a chance to fight for the belt.
I dislike Rashad alot, hes is cocky and shows no respect for his fellow fighters. He pulls that BS dance crap and just show no respect for the sport, himself, or other fighters. It was a nice clean win, but I still have no respect for Rashad. He is a luck fighter, he gets lucky with a quick shot to the jaw every time. He has no real skill outside those lucky hands he has.
where’s black gerbil1 with his stupid remarks? anyways gotta love it when evan was kissing his dick, showing zero class and respect. I hope rampage will break his winning streaks and put him to sleep
Matt, you’re an idiot.
Rashad is a clean winner and I am not a fan of Forest either. But Rashad is a classless guy and Punk. He showed it again in this fight.
Unprofessional antics…He will get his ass kicked by Machida…
With so much talent in the LHW, it will be hard for Evans to keep it for a long time. Good fight.
Matt, if Rashad is winning with a quick shot to the jaw every time, can you really still call that luck….
Just because a guy showboats during a fight doesn’t mean he is a disrespectful fighter. You can ask anyone who has fought Rashad they’ll tell you that he is a respectful person, so stop being an emotional boohoo, Matt.
Rampage isn’t going to beat Rashad. Rashad has the better-grown game, if he decides to use it during their fight if it ever happens.
C’mon Matt that’s like saying “Forrest won the belt by having those lucky leg kicks.” In mma you go with the best weapon in your arsenal and you use it to win or set yourself up for a win.
Stop hating Matt. Lucky EVERY time???? C’mon, be a sport…be a big boy and take it like a man. Forest did. Forest G is a class act, but he just got his ass whup-kicked!!! One and done means you just weren’t good enough to be a champion, but good enough to win a championship on any given night. As for showboating…to the victor goes the spoils. I guess you didn’t see Sugar show Forest the respect he was due or maybe you missed Griffin tapping to save his ass from more unnecessary whup-kicking. Big up to both those warriors and let’s see Sugar vs. Rampage. That oughta provide all haters something to say regardless since both those champs are…lol…bye haters.
Oh…before you say it…it’s Forrest with TWO Rs. My bad. Happy Holidays!
Kappi, that’s a good point with the machida match-up. But their styles are simular in the fact they both like to be on the outside and counter.I think their talents will offset one anothers and it might end up looking like a 25 minute square dance.
Wow, that was weird. If Forrest hadn’t allowed Rashad to posture up there would have likely been a standup and he could have regained his composure. This must be like MMA 101, so I just don’t get it. Perhaps he was trying to let him loose just enough to get him in a submission, but I guess that didn’t work. In standup, Forrest was solidly superior.
Well that was a good show by forrest – but i knew rashad would win. Great fight tho – i like how Rashad got hurt alittle
That was a poor result. Rashad couldn’t even pass guard. In one of the best divisions in the UFC we have one of the lower tier fighters as a champion.
It’s a sad day.
Next champ is going to be thiago silva, he’ll easily dispatch of the 2 african americans in his weight class.
Rashad and Rampage both have serious power, both are great wrestlers, but I think Rashad is a bit quicker…could be very interesting…I would have thought Brandon Vera would do well against Rashad but he’s still lucky to have a UFC contract based on his last few lousy performances…
MATT…. what the hell are u talking about no class cuz he was dancing sH*T fighters that runs around the ring screaming has no class luck Chuck L. no class but havent seen him run around the ring anymore LOL!!!!!!!!!!
Matt needs to look up the definition of luck in the dictionary. Better yet, he should get himself some common sense.
rashad respects fighters more than any of you punkass faggots… just cause he fighting like that isnt disrespect… laughin in your defeated opponents face is disrespect… you guys just hate rashad soo much…. going to suck to see him dominate the next few years
this fight was bullsh*t…fuk evans and the ufc for having him as a champion.go do jungle kung fu..MACHIDA should be the champ.both machida and silva can beat that dick kissin classless hoe..fuck evans
This is the only fight I got right last night. I feel Evans is a good enough fighter to be a champion, while as much as I like Forrest he’s not championship material.
I still think Forrest was given a gift decision over Rampage, but nevertheless fought well last night. Forrest has the heart of a champion, and has a great sense of humor that makes people love him, but his skills are just one notch below that elite level in my opinion.
Too much was made from his win over Shogun Rua who came into the cage on one knee. If Rua was healthy Forrest would have never been given that title shot.
Either way Evans will have a hard time holding onto that title, but I think it’s safe to say anyone holding the LHW title right now is going to have a hard time hanging onto it. I don’t believe there’s one guy in that division that can make a long run of title defences, there’s simply too many good 205 lb fighters out there.
Rashad has shown that he can be a respectful and humble person (during post-fight interviews), so i don’t see why he needs to do that shit during a fight. I don’t like Rashad as much as I used to but u gotta give the devil his due. He’s steadily improving his all-around skills. I don’t like it when people say it’s about luck. Luck is having a shmuck who has absolutely no fighting experience (like Matt) and step into the octagon and knocking out Chuck Lidell. THAT’S LUCK.
Rashad has the better ground game but that’s about it and it’s not like Rampage hasn’t beaten better wrestlers than Evans. Dan Henderson is a world class wrestler and it wasn’t much of an advantage … Rampage is gonna steamroll Evans. The only way Rashad defends his belt is if he fights the Machida/Silva winner and I hope to god its not Machida cuz thats going to be the most boring fight ever.
I had a feeling Rashad would win. Unfortunately, he just doesn’t stack up all that well against ‘Page, Shogun, Machida, or T.Silva.
In other words, I don’t think he’ll be the champ for very long.
great fight show of class and gameness by griffin by haveing just another day in the office attitude in defeat his spirit was litely wounded as for rashad another great display of his athleticism and power as for that little dick kissing display i think he was trying to send a message basicaly saying jack me off you cant hurt me with that crazy combo cocky maybe but rashad is influnced by muhamad ali muhamad was a very cocky fighter but he was the greatest but until machida loses hes the greatest fighter 13 0 ask rich franklin bj penn tito stephan bonner predator ect
Thank you for posting these fights.
Bring on Rashad Evans vs Rampage Jackson
For anyone who can answer… Putting A Rashad vs Rampage fight on hold for the minute which other match ups at 205 would you like to see for the title? Henderson Vs Rashad? Who else?
yeah at second round 3 30 he kisses his hand and then rubs his dick lol
Lucky?? all training is to reach that lucky in the ring.
Good job Evans, Forrest is a nice guy and hard worker but def. not a ture champion. I think Rampage could beat Evans in striking but on the ground Evans is a bit better.
Next LHW Champion = Lyoto Machida, although i would LOVE to see BJ Penn beat GSP im not sure if its gonna happen so Thiago = next welterweight champ! Fedor and Silva for Prez and VP!!!
I think Griffin did a good job in the fight and was definitely holding his own. Feel kinda bad he lost like that after taking the first two.
Oh, please, let it happen. Evans vs. Rampage would be an amazing fight. Another probable knock out in the first round like Jackson vs. Silva, but there is no telling who’s going down. At this point, Rashad seems unbeatable, but Rampage may be the fighter to pause Evans winning streak.
what a peice of work rashad is, he may have one, but hes NOT a champion…his showboating is completely disrespectful, and quite frankly it shows he doesn’t have confidence or self-esteem..he wont last long long on top, maybe has athleticism, but lacks the brains
Forgot about all is other antics, and just thought, well maybe he can learn from that..but nope..so screw him
sick of that guy!!!
That was a good fight,look I can’t stand when Evans acts like an ASS, but the dude is talented, he’s athletic and powerful, Forrest should get a rematch but if he doesn’t then bring Anderson Silva up to take a crack. Silva walks around at about 220, no big deal for him to cut 15 lbs instead of 35 lbs like he does for MW. Rashad will realize there is always someone tougher, better, faster, and that someone is Anderson Silva, and there will be someone to come along that will beat him etc., etc.
“He is a luck fighter, he gets lucky with a quick shot to the jaw every time” i gree,forrest was better this fight
Wtf? I guess Griffin never heard of covering his center line. Both guys got hit alot. It just goes to show how low the skill level is in mma when “good stand up” in a championship fight means being able to take punishment, having a good chin and hitting fast/hard instead of making your opponent miss!
Forrest broke his Hands in 3rd round or 2nd round. That’s why his guard was so weak. He said so. He should have won.
FCKU Forrest Griffin!! I’ve hated that guy since the 1st time he was giving the fight against Stephan Bonner, the whole world knew he didn’t win that fight (I hope bitch-ass Dana White reads this post) Forrest never deserved to be escalated so fast to the top. Overrated white ape! He sucks, he can’t take a punch and he definitely can’t knock no one out. He should be fired or sent to WEC. This guy is a disgrace in the light-heavies division. Yeah, he won against Shogun who had a BROKEN LEG. Even my grandma could’ve kicked Shogun’s ass that day. Anyway, good job Rashad, but too bad Rampage is coming after his belt, so you better take the fight against Rampage seriously b/c you’ll be getting your first “L” bro.
lmao. hey GREATKING you are an idiot. rampage has sick jiu jitsu for your information. i am not sure on rashads status but before his fight with chuck he was only a white belt. so think about shit before u type man. and is not BY FAR the best in light heavy weight.
Rashad is a good fighter, he’s quick with a hard punch. However, I do agree with Matt that he is a classless fighter. Taunting your opponent is disrespectful, I don’t know what the hell the previous post is talking about.
It’ll take a good fighter to take Rashad down, but I hope one does soon.
I just don’t like Rashad’s style more so in his last fights than this one. He’s obviously quick but I don’t know I just don’t see greatness from him. He’s found a way to stay undefeated and his last 2 fights were finished but now that he has the title I wouldn’t be surprised to see him lay and pray on his next challenger.
I hate that negro. Hope he gets KOd next fight
Everybody is saying how rashard was showboating, I hope they noticed that when he actually worn, he didn’t jump all around the cage or try to show up forrest. The show boating is during the fight, and that is only for the judges to know that he’s not hurt, its old boxing tactics. Congratulate rashard because the man has definitely worked hard to get here and he deserves it.
Kappi and Matt are stupid for there comments, every other fighter in the UFC except for tito ortiz has said how humble and nice rashard is, when the fight is on, he cant be humble and nice you two fuc*ing idiots.
Rashad isn’t a very likable fighter. His show boating is really out of line. I guess when he was brought up a certain way, you just can’t take the ghetto out of him. I’m sure Rampage will teach him a good lesson or whoever gets that next shot. Go away Rashad
great fight! both fighters showed a tremendous amount of heart and skill. congrats to rashad, he really earned his belt. thanks dana for this end of the year blowout. great card, great show!
I always though Forest was always making a dollar out of 15 cents throughout his career….hes a tough guy but he just doenst have that extra something to be a champ.
Matt, go cry in a corner cos your boy Forest lost. I guess LEsnar is a better sportsman the way he made fun of Herring….dumb ass
LOL i find it hilarious how many misinformed mma fans talk shit on here! ALways tlking shit, “matt hughes will kill thiago!” “if thiago couldn’t stop matts takedowns then how will he defend kosh?” then when the fights is over they have nothing to say. Rampage will beat forrest and when he gets a title shot(assuming he keeps the title till then) against rashad he will blast him. Rampage is bigger, stronger, and faster. Rashad doesn’t have a chance. he has nice footwork, I’ll give em that but everything else falls in rampages corner. If he comes in with top mental n physical condition i have no doubt ramp will take it.
no such thing as lucky every time he’s just that good that he can get the job done. now get ready to c bj penn drop gsp. das ryte!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hate Rashad. At least there will be someone to root against in the future.
Hey what do you guys think about evans vs anderson silva now thats a LHW title fight worth watching, props to forrest tho this was a good fight
Forest needs to add turn back side kick and spin kick to his arsenal. Forest had Evans backed up to the fence couple of times which is a perfect time to use it. Round house kicks to the legs doesn’t have the knockout type of impact. Turn back side kicks to he abdomen or spin kick to the head does have fight ending impacts. These guys don’t have much standup arsenal besides punches and same old kicks to the legs. The fight is pretty boring. Perhaps they need some lessons from Cung Le.
I thought Rashad looked scared the entire fight. There is no doubt that Forest was controlling this fight. You can tell by Rashad’s reaction after the fight that he knew he was loosing badly before he KO’d Forest. Liddell and Rampage could take either of these guys. Liddell vs. Rampage would currently be the best matchup for deciding the true champion.
i would love to see the spider jump up a class or 2 and whoop rashads arse. i know it will never likely happen but hey a guy can dream right? Rashad shows no respect. kissing his dink like that during the fight is a lack of respet and class. he will get his for sure when rampage takes back what is his. keep the belt warm rashad and take lots of pictures because rampage will hit you so hard you will forget who you are.
Jeff whoever…get off of Thiago’s jock strap and stop holding his dick while he pees. By the way…there are more than two competent and dangerous AA LHWs dickhead!!! Guess what? Both…I repeat…BOTH of those AAs you refer to KNOW WHAT IT IS to be the boss of 205 if even for a minute. What about your boy? I shouldn’t even be putting Silva’s name out there (no dis meant to you Thiago) just because you can only think of someone to root against PROVEN WINNERS because you’re such a pea-brained spoiled sport. Let’s see…Dan Henderson, Chuck Liddell, the On His Back Murdered (formerly Axe Murderer)…I mean he DID look like he got 187ed, with the final knee jerk and all…and then there’s the belt holder who is what???? UNDEFEATED IN HIS MMA CAREER to date (I guess Brad Imes laid down for him just so he could pad his score sheet and record huh?). HEART!!! That’s what it’s called. A sissy like you wouldn’t know what it takes to go and smash the face of the man that totally crushed your nuts not once, but twice before…SASOADBB…in other words…”Sit And Suck On A Dick Bitch Boy.”
Rashad is a classless punk – lets see him try to KO Rampage or Machida.
yoyo,
Where did you find out he had a white belt….he doesnt even train in a school that gives belts. He trains in Greg Jackson’s camp. Learn your facts b4 you post stupid shit.
I always wonder, what the hell people are talking about when they say i hate a fighter like Rashad…. The guy has not lost a fight man, he grabs his dick and rubs his tits alot, you know i could do without all that… He could never get away with that in the penn they’d be calling him Shirley three times a night…
Rashad much props man. Gotta love his showboating the dude just makes you wanna watch even if you’re rooting for him to loose.
i was going 4 Rashad damm he is great. Thanks 4 getting revenge for shogun.
I remeber liking Rashad quite a bit on TUF. When Melvin was running his mouth about all his KO’s Rashad stayed calm and humble. His response was “He reminds me of me when i was younger.” Considering he came across as a decent guy i figured he would get chewed up and spit out in the UFC. But look at how things turned out, he’s got the belt and Melvin has lost most of his fights and turned out to be a real turd. As for his showboating in the ring, it pisses some ppl off but personally i think the mental warfare is just another facet of the ever evolving game. There was a great champ who was known for being a smart ass showboat…Ali. Rashad has earned it, I don’t think too many ppl didn’t see it comin. He’s gonna have a hell of test on his hands soon. The biggest test of his career to be exact.
Rashad will be knocked out 1st round against Rampage!!! Rampage has a different level of power and speed, Forrest has low skill, but a huge heart. Rampage is the best 205 in the UFC
Griffin looked good, did well but got caught. Rashad will be a good champ
if the round ends up in scorecards griffin has the edge until he got careless and got caught…i hope he came back and win the title again. Losing is part of the game
what the ell is up w/ sum o’ u guys, u dis efray-on 4 bein’ a wrestler and give the crapface rashad all the respect in da wrld 4 takin’ forest 2 da grnd, and say houston alexander is so disrespectful, and eric schaefer said hes the most respectful guy he ever fot, and no 1 said rashad is respectful, and u guys r sayin’ he is such a nice guy, hes a piece of shizzlefizz.
Who said forrest has a weak chin? whoever said it is a idiot.. seriously..did you watch the fight, did you watch the rampage fight when rampage caught him with a HARD upper cut to teh chin and he just kept fighting and won… Forest will be champ agian… Rashad is sooo overrated he lost first 2 rounds..
