Forrest Griffin withdraws from UFC 114 due to the shoulder injury; Lil' Nog still wants to fight

If Forest says he's hurt, he's hurt. That is one guy who always wants to fight.

yeah but he was a bit affraid of nog.

@Manowar - if he was afraid of fighting he wouldnt be a fighter

You say that based on what facts?

asshole!!

Forest did mention in an interview that this was a bad matchup for him but thats about it. I hope the Injury Plague of '09 doesnt strike again.

Because forrest isnt one of those guys who bad mouth their opponent and tlak about how they are gunna destroy them. He respects his opponents so if he thinks that nog could KO him or Sub him then hes gunna admit it.

i think he said it based on the interview with forrest where forrest said this was a bad match up for him, saying there styles dont contrast too well nd blah blah blah but i think thats where he got it

i quote forrest griffing " this is a bad match up for me" translation. " i have a vagina"

Forest won't run from anyone!!!! >=-O

Only if he has to!!! >=-(

Definitely. The guy has as much heart and determination as anyone, and no, he's not afraid of Nog.

anderson silva took his manhood

you sure it wasnt your "vagina" forrest??

oh yea i rememebr that fight thats the first fight i rememebr Anderson not doing his job as the supposed p4p champ!!! haha wat a coincidence

you are such a little shit onemoreround. I bet you have never fought in your life you retard. did you think forrest was a pussy when he beat rampage or steped up for his professional debut against dan severn?

forrest is a warrior and you critise him from your keyboard. little shits like you who have never fought piss me off and I know that you have never fought because you wouldn't talk such shit if you have.

anyone can get knocked out if they take a punch in the sweetspot on their chin regardless of the power of the punch where their nervous system becomes overrun.

come back and critise him and call him a pussy when you have made your fight debut you asshole

Another retarded comment from "onemoreloser". Get a clue. Win, lose or draw, Forrest has always brought it and has the heart of a lion. He would fight anyone in their backyard if he had to. His fights have had a major influence on the success of the UFC. Save your third grade comments for your schoolyard buddies, and lose the ugly picture too.

Do you realise how pervy and childish you sound? the word "manhood" in your first comment and "vagina"in your second, that says a lot about what's on your mind kid, and i emphasize the word 'kid' Do you know what 'constructive criticism' is? well that's what we're after, not stupid pointless derogatory comments about good fighters that you obviously know absolutely jack s**t about. Go and get it out of your system, go and have a w**k.........

Yeah i hate onemoreround too fcking sore loser.

Really hope they find a replacement, even if they have to cancel another fight to give Little Nog someone to fight. But I think Bader would take the fight.

I think Krystof would be a likely candidate he is known for taking short notice fight, and he a decent record in the UFC his only loss was to Vera i believe. Bader would be a good replacement to though.

Im happy they're not fighting anymore.



i didnt want to watch griffin loose again.

Yea Griffin doesnt need to be "loose" again. All that stretching makes him pretty "loose." I understand why u didnt want to see Griffin "loose" again. You probably wanna see him pull a muscle.

It aint like hes on a losing streak. Yea he lost both fights before tito but he beat the everlovin crap out of Tito so it could have been the begining of a winning streak? We'll never kno.

It sucks cause Forrest needed a big win to get his fight career goin again. But if Forrest says he's hurt then he's hurt. He always wants to fight, and if he says he's hurt then you have to believe him. As for being scared he obviously isn't. His first fight was was against Dan fu*kin Severn. And he looked good in that fight.

Forrest just dodged a huge bullet. Get well soon.

Hope this isnt true Forrest's fights are always exciting - win or lose - just hope if this is true they give nog a stand up fighter who is also decent off his back - ideally Thiago Silva

i think that forrest would win against little nog by descision, if he made it through the first round without to much damage he would have just progressed as the fight went on, he as an overwhelming tendacy to do that, his heart is huge also so i find it kinda hard to beleive that he wouldnt take on the fight - surely those allegations are bull crap and i hope forrest gets well soon and starts climbing up the ufc light heavyweight ladder again :)

I am disappointed. I am sure this would have been an entertaining fight. I think Forrest had a much better chance then folks give him credit for. Although, Forrest has literally been the underdog in every one of his fights, so what do ya expect I guess.

Forrest doesn't understand the term 'scared' or 'fear' let alone feel them, especially in fighting terms. To say he is/was scared of Lil nog is ridiculous imo. He's definately the type of guy who will fight whoever they put in front of him no questions. I love Forrest man, i mean, who doesn't right? the guys a gamer no matter what, period. I really didn't fancy his chances against lil nog though, with nogs Black House ground game and stand up that has looked on fire lately it would've been hard to find any weakness' to exploit anywhere. Forrest would of had a chance no doubt, this is MMA, but i would have picked nog to win this one. Forrest does not refuse fights period so if he says he's injured, he's injured, who is anybody else to say otherwise......

he just dont want to lose again forest knows he would get knocked the **** out

you're crazy man. forrest has fought with a broken arm before. and he's already come back from the silva fight and beat tito. he's had a shoulder injury before, so this doesnt suprise me one bit. the dude trains hard, and is a brawler. theres no way he's gonna back out of a fight because he's scared

BOOOOOOOOOOO

first who ever says forrest is scared is a dumbass, he wants to fight and it dont matter if its shogun or lil nog. second THIS BLOWS! i was waiting for this match for a long time. Hopefully Forrest recovers quickly so we can make this fight happen

How is it that a gossip rag like TMZ gets so many breaking stories that center around the MMA?

lil nog aint that good, wow he knocked out luiz cane whoopie de doo, luiz cane was also knocked out by james irvin, dont think anyway would big up james irvin for that like frantically surround him with hype, bottom line i think forrest would have won the fight

look up some lil nog fights and do some research,

he has had some decent competition but he can be had if Sokoudjou can knock him out im sure theres plenty of fighters in the ufc that can

I hope its jason brilz,..thats a fight everybody wants to see!!!

Man it really sucks that Forrest got hurt, it would have been a really cool fight, with that said i am kinf od intrigued to see who will take the fight on a 3 week notice.

apparently jason brilz has agreed to a fight and thats gonna be taking place on the same fight card dude
