Forrest vs. ortiz 3 coming some time in 2012

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forrest_Griffin


well we all discussed the possibilty of this happening and it looks like it will.

War forrest!!!!! but to be honest neither guy has been looking that great so i would call this fight a toss up. Whoever comes in really ready to fight will probably come out on top on this one.

I say war Forrest, but I also say that much like Tito, Forrest's fights are numbered...wouldn't surprise me if this was the last fight for both guys. I see Tito winning the rematch.

Stupid fight, imo.
If Forrest doesn't walk through Tito with ease and finish him, he's out of my top 10.

I feel like I should be excited for this, but I'm just not for some reason.

Maybe it's because Tito is near the end physically and Forrest is near the end mentally, so neither guy is going hold any legitimate momentum coming of this win.

Meh I'll watch the freebie.... won't pay for it... but I'd watch.

I completely agree with Stock, if Forrest doesn't outright destroy Tito he mid as well go write books for a living cause I won't have any interest in seeing him fight anyone.

Pretty meh about this fight. I don't expect much out of Tito anymore and Forrest seems resigned to getting his ass kicked lately. Probably an uneventful decision win for Griffin...

yeah...im with the general consensus on this one....meh!

Not even excited about this one.

Fuel TV or FX. No way anyone will really pay ppv money for this one.

If it's on a PPV, I don't think it should be any higher than the 3rd fight down.

^^^^^def not main event or co-main event

Yawn.... I much rather see Forrest vs Machida.... can we please have that instead? Oh and +1 for this not being the main or co-main event...... I still feel ripped off after paying for Forrest vs Tito 2

Well it looks like this is actually happening now... I think I'll pass

The 37-year-old Ortiz campaigned vigorously for a final meeting with Griffin, and is expected to retire following the rubber match.

This fight sucks, and also the Guida/Maynard fight suxz.... Griffin/Ortiz should be on the tv card like the Clay fight.

is tito trying to sell the whole " rivalry thing " as if the "fans" want this fight????

if so they shouldnt let him fight because he has clearly taken to many shots to the head

Rivalrys are all Tito's entire career have revolved around...Chuck, Shammy and now Tito...so he really knows nothing else. He'll obviously never be a title contender again, so he's gotta do something to put himself in the spotlight.

Since Rampage is out with his knee surgery, why the hell doesn't the UFC put Tito up against Shogun? Now there is a beating I would love to see.

just the thought of them two in the same cage makes me lol like a school girl who farted on the school bus

Because in Tito's own mind, people are clamoring for Ortiz/Griffin 3. He's not gonna let the truth get in the way of his own perception.

No doubt Tito is thinking that he is giving the 'Fans' what they want. The first fight between the two was okay, but that second fight sucked so bad that I can't imagine anyone wanting a 3rd.
