Couture Picks Forrest

June 24, 2008 By: Dave Carpinello Category: UFC 86

Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Randy Couture recently gave his prediction for UFC 86’s main event between Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson and Forrest Griffin to Naluta.com

“Forrest is training at Extreme Couture and he’ll have a great chance against Quinton “Rampage” Jackson. It is going to be a superb fight. Forrest has a war spirit and will get into the octagon and do his best performance.
Both fighters like to hit stand-up, Forrest improved Wrestling and his Jiu Jitsu is good. Robert Drysdale and others Jiu Jitsu guys came to the team and helped him a lot. Quinton is an excellent athlete, has heavy hands, and he is explosive. These factors become the fight more attractive.”

The former UFC heavyweight champion bets Griffin.

A little bit of bias there because Couture trains Griffin but I have to agree with The Natural.

I hope Rampage beats him down "like a dog without owner" as Wand would say.

Forrest can't compete with the power of rampage.

Yeah I agree, there is bias since forrest trains with Couture. I do not agree, I cannot see Forrest beating Rampage at anything. I think Rampage is better in every aspect.

Maybe he knows something about Rampage's condition the way he knew about Shogun. If all are healthy Rampage takes it.

I don't know how someone could be not impressed with rampage. I guess the henderson fight is old news.

Anyway, I think Rampage will win this. I say TKO in the second.
