Forrest Griffin Talks! Says he is no Tom Brady…
I had the pleasure of attending UFC 101 in Philadelphia. It was a great time and we enjoyed every bit of the action.

Forrest Griffin: Enough Is Enough.
By now most of you have seen or at the very least heard of Forrest Griffin’s mad dash from the octagon following his devastating knockout loss to Anderson Silva last Saturday night at UFC 101. Being a self described Griffin fanatic, I didn’t want to comment on the situation in fear of not being impartial. In the words of a true American hero, “That’s all I can stand and I can’t stand no more.” While some internet scribes have chosen to look at this from a fighter’s perspective,… (Full Story)

Silva vs. Griffin: Was the fight rigged?
No, the asnwer is no! The thing about fixed fights or sports, is that you don’t know. Don’t believe me? Tell me that you knew without a doubt that Tim Donaghy was doing anything wrong in the NBA? Have you ever heard of the Black Sox Scandal? The 1919 World Series that was threw by the Chicago White Sox? Throughout the series rumors flew, but it was far diffferent from the Anderson Silva fight. More than 8 players were in on it, and people talk. People are saying that the fight… (Full Story)
Forrest Griffin and The Sudden Hate Parade
Never has one fell from grace so fast… Forrest Griffin went from being one of the most popular fighters in the world to rock bottom. He went from title holder to dumpster diver. He will never fight again, never throw a punch, or even put on a set of gloves? He will never smile again, his family hates him, and he should probably get a job application for Wal-Mart… Wait, what? Why are so many people selling crazy in reference to Forrest? Check out these comments from Forrest’s… (Full Story)

Silva lashes out at Drysdale
Going into his UFC 101 bout with Forrest Griffin (16-5 MMA, 7-3 UFC, #4 IWMMAR), Anderson Silva (24-4 MMA, 9-0 UFC, #1 IWMMAR) didn’t take too kindly to criticism from Griffin’s jiu-jitsu coach, Robert Drysdale. Drysdale, a world class jiu-jitsu competitor and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu blackbelt, commented that: “We saw in the Travis Lutter fight; he stays flat on his back, he doesn’t hip out, he gets very frustrated off of his back, and he just doesn’t react well… I see Forrest submitting… (Full Story)
