A pretty good card overall. I absolutely cannot believe that Shogun lost. Anyone who has seen him before knows that was not him and with total credit to Forrest for his wonderful effort, if the Shogun we know would have turned up,he would have won.
Chute Box are known for their high energy,electrifying pace and devestating offence. Shogun was the total opposite. He gassed after 7 minutes but looked slow from the beginning,was waiting for Forrest to get off first and just looked unmotivated! The best he could manage were those single leg takedowns but it looked like he was collapsing and taking Forrest's leg with him,it was really that bad. He also landed that 1 elbow but it was not enough. I still think he cna come back because he's so young,let's just hope he learns.
Congratualtions to Forrest for a wonderful effort,that guy is tough,game and will bring it everytime!
I'm glad Wanderlei is taking his time. He can learn from Shogun's and Mirko's mistakes. I just hope he does not fail either otherwise there are lots of mega matches which have gone down the drain.
BTW,Dana has stated,Big Nog needs one more win and he'll be fighting Randy,a fight which he can win for sure. Having watched his fight again,he actually dominated,got caught with a kick that would have KTFO anyone else,survived and won. He'll still become HW champ at some point,I'm sure.
