    Why would the UFC want one of their most popular fighters to suffer a humiliating loss the way Griffin did?

    Anderson could never beat Forrest Griffin. Forrest Griffin is way too good. That fight was clearly fixed.

    They want to keep their investments safe. Would you be suprised if you find out in the future that Vitor and Forrest took a dive vs. Silva? Both looked very suspect.
    Don't forget the Henderson fight too. Also, Okami? Got dropped by a little weak ass hook.

    It's all about as real as pro wrestling.

    Too bad Brock Lesnar retired, he was the king of fixed fights. I mean, did you see him get stopped from a body shot? Bullshit.

    Look at those wimpy shots. Especially the last one. Anyone on this forum could've taken those shots, and you are telling me Forrest Griffin with his iron jaw can't?

    Bullshit, Dana White loves Anderson and made him win like Vince McMahon.


    And Vitor? Who the hell gets front kicked anyway? That's bullshit man. The UFC is just like boxing man, totally fixed. I thought I even saw a guy with a black hat on messing with the scorecards just in case Vitor didn't let himself get knocked out.

    Griffin might have been more out classed and embarrassed than knocked senseless, but he got punished just the same. Mentally that fight ruined Griffin forever. Amazing how a dive can do that to a man.

    The fix that was really good was Hendo eating that high kick.

    Clearly after he took that dive, he was so disenchanted with how fake ultimate fighting is that he no longer cared. Everyone knows Griffin was world class and the best fighter out there...Anderson had no chance in a real fight.

    Griffin threw the Silva fight, now I've heard everything.

    Wow. Even worse then. So the greatest P4P fighter matched up against someone who has no chance against him. Good matchmaking UFC, way to keep it real.

    Yes, quite clearly, Forrest had little to no chance.

    Much like Rashad has little to no chance against Jones. Clearly the UFC is fixing fights with their terrible matchmaking.

    Yes, let's just give them the win on paper and forget about actually holding the fights.

    The funny thing is that most casual fans were looking forward to Silva stepping up to 205 and facing a pressure fighter like Griffin after his sleepers against Cote and Leites.

    Not even. Everyone knew Anderson would have no problem with that bum.

    You'd have to be pretty stupid to pick Forrest over Anderson.

    True, but you wouldn't have to be stupid to look forward to the fight at the time. I didn't give Forrest much of a chance, but I was looking forward to Silva fighting an aggressive 205'er.

    Everyone thought Silva was going to win, but Forrest is huge, tough and doesn't back down so many thought he'd put up a good fight.

    The card was boring. Sonnen clearly won 2 rounds.
