I CANNOT WAIT FOR SHOGUN TO KICK SOMEONE'S ASS.NOW HE IS HEALED,THE WEDDING IS OVER AND HE WILL BE acclimatised with his surroundings. I want him to rematch Forrest,beat the shat out of him then bust up Tito and Rampage. Then his contract will be over and he can sign with M1!

Tito would be a good fight. Rematch with Forrest, nahhh. What's done is done.

I'm sorry but I can't have that. 2 main reasons: first,no matter what he accomplishes,haters will always hark back to the lost to Forrest. Second,it's a fight he should never really have lost. Being a huge Shogun fan and seeing wins over top notch guys like Rampage etc then a loss to Forrest,no disrespect to Forrest but Shogun is better and needs to prove it.

OK so forrest isn't the greatest of fighters BUT i do think people give him a hard time. Some of his work looks terrible but he seems to find a way.

Fantastic win against Shogun but Shogun was badly gassed man. Dunno what happened there. Forrest main strength is the sheer amount of abuse the guy can take and still keep coming.

Anyway...in a rematch i think Shogun takes it.

That's just it though. Only Shogun fans want it. If it was a great erpic battle or incredibly close, then yes. But Forrest (and I hate the guy, mind you) beat him easily, whatever he reason. Shogun is better off to go up against someone else.

You're right about Shogun fans wanting to see it but that's because the guy was P4P top3,OBVIOUSLY didn't train as muh as he should have done for this fight,lost and now Forrest is earning all these accolades and all of SHogun's previous accomplishments have been practically wiped away. I want him to come back,beat 2 bags of crap out of Forrest and send him back to where he belongs,which is nowhere near higher than Shogun as I've seen on some 205 lists. It would also shut up some of the more unintelligent(that's putting it politely_) UFC fans that say it shows PRIDE was over rated.

The thing is though,Shogun looked horrible,and being a huge fan,I can't stand by and allow this Forrest guy to get all this credit for nothing. I would like to make clear,that although I'm not a huge fan of the UFC set up etc I love some of their fighters like Chuck etc but a guy like Forrest beating a guy like Rua!? I was actually beginning to feel sorry and embaressed for Shogun,he would clumsily fall to the mat and try for a single leg,it was woeful! He needs to redeem himself !!!
