I think we can all agree that Jackson won round one and Griffin won
round two. So let's assume Jackson 18 and Griffin 19 since Jackson was
totally dominated and did nothing in round 2. Round four IMO was
Jackson's. Yes, Griffin attempted a Triangle choke but otherwise did
nothing in that round. Now it's Jackson 28 Griffin 28. Comes down to
rounds 3 and 5. In round 3 while Griffin landed many leg kicks they were
not as effective as rounds 1 and 2 and Jackson was able to land quite a
few head shots. Since we have to award a winner I'm giving this one to
Jackson. Scoring is now Jackson 38 and Griffin 37. In round 5 Griffin
outscored Jackson with numerous head and leg kicks so I'll give this one
to him. Final score: Jackson 47 Griffin 47. Just my take.

Other than the knockdown uppercut to Griffin the round 1, all the action
went Griffin's way. I suspect the judges, as did Joe Rogan and myself,
would have given Round 1 to Forrest too...

It was a difficult fight to score. I would have had it a draw as
well, but I can see a case for either fighter. Rampage landed more
power shots, but Griffin landed a variety of different types of
strikes in greater numbers. Same as you, I gave rounds 2 and 5 to
Griffin, and 1, 3, and 4 to Rampage, with round 2 scored 10-8. The
rematch is going to be huge for the UFC.

(Translation: Gump was allowed to lay on top of Jackson for
the entire round, while doing little more than feigning elbow
and forearm fury. Anyone else would have been stood up.)

Griffin won merely by the *impression* of being the aggressor,

It's just a matter of time till the Gump bubble gets popped.
If it isn't, then you know it's rigged.

Dude- you've lost all credibility IMO. So if the guy you want to win-
loses- then it is a fix. Sheesh must be nice to go through life with
that attitude- you're never wrong. Whatever.

Agreed. Jackson looked helpless though.

I don't question your claims that Forrest isn't a worthy champion, that
remains to be seen although I did predict he'd win
