going to be on 101, sounds awesome im really liking that card

[CrimsonGhost56]

good. at least forrest comes to fight each time.

[Liquidrob]

forrest is going to man handle And1

[Bigpapa42]

Good match making. If Silva wins, its understandable as Griffin is fighting "the best pound for pound fighter in the world". If Silva loses, he's losing to an elite guy from a weight class above.

Should make for an interesting fight.

White is said to be livid, and will only book him from this point forward with decent strikers willing to cut from 205, who wont be afraid to stand. So forget about Okami or Maia or Marquardt getting a title shot anytime soon. Guys like Stephan Bonner or Wandy will get shots, deserving or not.

Quoted from another thread...White wasted no time getting Silva in there with a willing striker.

Has anyone confirmed a weight for this fight? Is Forrest coming down to challenge for the belt?

It's clear that White badly wants Silva to get his head knocked off. I hope he wins another decision, I wanna see Dana go apeshit and sign Fedor to kill the Spider.

I feel bad for Okami & Maia, who deserve title shots, but will probably never get one while Silva holds the belt.

the ufc.com article says Silva is going up to 205.

good pick W2B

lol @ forrest trying to make 185, he barely can make 205, yeah its at 205

forrest is pretty much a heavyweight, probably 1 of the biggest 205'ers out there, I said on MM about 6 months ago or so that guys like Rasahd, Rampage and even Forrest would beat Silva

The size will just be to much and not just Silva's size, because he can get pretty big, just being able to deal with bigger, stronger fighters for an entire fight

If Forest goes for that Randy Couture dirty boxing clinch against the fence style, thats going to really wear Silva out

yeap, pretty much what will happen if Forrest is smart which he will be

he isnt going to just stand and trade with silva for the whole fight, he will rough him up, put him on the cage, throw some big leg kickd and if he has the chance put him on the ground

also, if they cant get silva to fight a MW fight after this they need to strip him, cant put the entire division in limbo because someone is 'bored'

probably if forrest beat him down he will go back to MW, if he beats forrest he wil stay there

[Liquidrob]

lol @ diaz, he is almost a cartoon character now

smith is a gentle soul

[CrimsonGhost56]

fedor beat aoki with an achilles lock in their exhibition match ... no vids up yet

[Liquidrob]

Some more pics, must have been fun to watch, looks like they had a good time

[Liquidrob]

lol @ fedor picking up aoki during the armbar like a small woodlyn creature and Aoki about to lay the GnP on Fedor

[Kuzzy Powers]

So where their strikes in this fight? It looks like Fedor is abt to lay GnP on him, but surely that would've ended the exhibition quickly.

no strikes. fedor was just messing around. never landed a shot or aoki would of been taken out in a body bag
