Tito Vs. Shogun

[J-Dogg]

That would have been a way better start in the UFC for Shogun. Tito was able to beat Wanderlei in UFC 47 or 49 I think. He's a strong guy, really knows how to use the cage and ground and pound.
Shogun is a very impressive fighter, ranked #1 in the LHWD, I don't think it's fair to feed him forest first.

I don't really see the difference between Forrest and Tito, to be honest, bro. Forrest more than held his own with Tito when they fought.

This is a great opportunity for Forrest, also...one he wouldn't want to pass up.

Although I would have liked Shogun to jump into the thick of things against Machida, I think it's definately a "fair" fight as is.

I have only seen some video clips of Shogun so I dont know much about him. But I wouldnt completely count Forrest out. He can take punishment and go the distance against most fighters. If he is on his back most of the time, then of course I dont see him doing much. Im pretty interested in this fight and it wouldnt hurt my feelings to see Forrest win. His fight with Ortiz was so awesome. Ortiz has a decent ground game as well, Forrest spralls pretty good. Like I say, Im not all that familiar with Shogun yet, everyone seems to be saying he will walk right though Forrest. I hope its good either way.

peace_frog,

If you want a great Shogun fight to watch, try to find him against Lil Nog in the MWGP 2005- it was many peoples' pick for fight on the year.

Forrest Griffin actually requested from Dana White if his next fight could be against Shogun. Tough Son Of A Bitch if u ask me.... Altho im not lookin forward to see what happens in that fight for forrests sake

Wow, that is a great fight.

The fights in Pride are so different than UFC's. I like the longer rounds, it makes you wonder how the UFC fighters are even winded after 5 minute rounds.

Forrest is no joke. He lost a very close decision to Tito and besides his loss to Jardine he has done really well in the UFC. Shogun is a bad mo fo but so many of the pride guys are not taking well to being locked in a cage. Well see. Shogun's brother just got ktfo'd by robbie lawler who is, and ninja is very similar to shogun in style and athleticism.

Speaking of the lawler vs ninja fight that was abadd ass knockout by Lawler. That uppercut was huge!!
