As ‘zombiekilla’ mentioned in the comments section of the last post, UFC 101‘s real Fight of the Night took place in the crowd, when a group of meatheaded douchebags got a little too caught up in the action and began warring amongst themselves. As security intervened, a female meatheaded douchebag swung her purse at some other broad, then went after her with furious Brock Lesnar-style hammerfists. Everyone in the vicinity roared their approval and watched it play out, paying no attention to the Aaron Riley/Shane Nelson scrap that was going on inside the Octagon.
And so, we must amend Dana White’s beloved four corners analogy: If people are playing soccer on one corner, basketball on the second corner, street hockey on the third corner, a bunch of drunk Philadelphians are throwing haymakers on the fourth corner, and a professional mixed martial arts contest is taking place in the center of the street, people will watch the meatheads brawl every time. That’s how we know this is the sport of the future.
Unrelated, but important: Forrest Griffin‘s camp confirmed that the fighter suffered a broken jaw and partial hearing loss during his whuppin’ at the hands of Anderson Silva, and sprinted out of the cage in order to seek immediate medical attention. Well, we’re sorry to hear that, but Quinton Jackson still thinks you’re a ‘LOSER!!’
MMA Weekly confirmed with Griffin’s management that Griffin’s jaw was not injured, but "emotionally he is definitely not dealing well with the loss."

HOLY SHIT! Give that girl Knockout of the Night!
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:01
anyone got a link to the forrest fight?
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:07
he additionally suffered partial career loss
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:08
Yea Forest got fucking destroyed.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:29
So Rampage lost his belt to this same guy, goes batshit crazy and gets arrested at gunpoint, and Forrest is the "loser". Typical. I'm not surprised when snakes bite people, either. It's in their nature.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:30
God damn Forrest did get fucked up. Shit I'd have done the same thing, last time I went partially deaf I tore up the whole house thinking that my fucking brain was dying! Unlucky Forrest that sucks. In other news, don't invite guido's to cage fights, they get all into it and start to think they're real fighters, damn fools should have stayed in the tanning salon
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:43
Damn hearing loss? I hope this puts the "fix" comments to rest. I was really pissed off he ran out like that at first because i chalked it up to being a bad loser. I apologize for that now, and fully understand why Forrest left out now. and for everyone who called fix. Let Silva jab you clean on the jaw while you are running forward and see how you feel afterwords. Just because you and your "bros" like to get drunk and play punch for punch. Doesn't mean you know how hard REAL fighters hit.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:43
that video is exactly why i dont tell people i watch mma.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:44
Sign that bitch!
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:45
The crowd was as loud for the main events as it was for this.. I couldn't see it that well thru the cage - but I was wondering to myself if Nelson and Reilly thought that was for their fight.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:51
Damn, I don't get no love CP! I posted this link on the liveblog comments section hours ago. Sheesh...I call shenanigans!!! :D
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:52
im upset to be lumped with these idiots just because we live in the same city.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:54
ANybody else notice that at 0:05 someone yells. Kick his ass seabass!
Sun, 08/09/09 - 12:30
We now have proof that kimbo doesn't have a glass jaw. Turns out that the magic combo of backing up while throwing an arm punch is the strongest strike you can throw
Sun, 08/09/09 - 12:32
hey ya gotta find something to entertain you during the TUF losers fight I personally concentrated on my pizza. why was that main card?
Sun, 08/09/09 - 12:52
Hey Goog, what does the Rampage fight have to do with Forrest being the loser to Anderson Silva. Mad your great white hope was made to look retarded in the "goofiest" knockout in the history of knockots? Your boy Forrest is showing early signs of Chuck Liddell syndrome getting ktfo in his last 2 beeotch!
Sun, 08/09/09 - 12:56
Hey Goog, what does the Rampage fight have to do with Forrest being the loser to Anderson Silva.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 01:11
So surprised something like this could happen in the city of brotherly love. NOT!
Sun, 08/09/09 - 01:22
@Jay Smith I see you have to post your thought one piece at a time. Too big for you? First, I don't give a shit about Forrest. And if you'd clicked on the link in the article instead of racing to post your brilliance, you'd see Rampage's twitter that "I don't even want a rematch now. [with Forrest] He's a LOSER." Like you. So Rampage loses to this "LOSER". What's that make him? Not to mention your homie Rampage can't take it and goes fucking nuts and gets arrested. So unless Forrest ends up in jail in the next 24 hours, I'm gonna have to stick with you and Rampage being the giant douchebags, not Opie.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 01:37
@Biffmeister I feel ya. I made the "fight of the night in the crowd" comment first in the live blog, and I didn't get any love either. We're unsung heroes, my friend.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 01:38
@Goog. Rampage was joking..... swoosh. You know, like Forrest does all the time?

Sun, 08/09/09 - 01:50
@Biffmeister @Horror Fighter sorry guys...dont know why i got the love but thanks cp. where you guys there? i couldnt walk 50 ft without people talkin shit and tryin to fight each other. some d bag gave me grief when i walked thru the beer line just to get to rest room line. i had a good time but there are way too many d bags wuith beer muscles who think they can fight.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 01:51
Just playing along here, Sheps. It seems CP users in general are unable to just post a thought or ask a question without attacking someone unnecessarily. But regardless... Rampage is still an ass.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 02:02
Douche bags in Philly? surely you jest! I've never broken my jaw but is running considered the smartest thing to do? me thinks forrest was ashamed of his performance plane and simple.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 02:51
running with a broken jaw cant be that bad considering what abraham did in his first fight against miranda. i feel so bad for forrest. but at least his broken jaw shows that he didnt just quit. running into a jab might look stupid but it can cause much damage.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 03:26
@ Goog Im sorry, it just sounded like you had Forrests dick in your mouth, and I did click on the link. Also, stop tryin to get Sheps dick in your mouth too, actin like you never had anything to say about another persons post on this site.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 03:44
No... I usually post a topic related thought. But if I have to get down in the playpen with most of the kids here, sometimes I will. I think it'd be great to eliminate the name calling and pointless references to someone's sexual preferences, but as you've just shown with the "dicks in your mouth" comment, there's an inexplicable need to put gay references on an MMA forum. Whatever.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 04:10
Philly fans are not only an embarrassment to sports fans and their city - they are an embarrassment to the human race. They actually take pride in shit like this. I go down there every year with a group of friends to watch the Phils play my suck ass Mets and have a Tony Luc Cheese Steak and invariably, like 10 mobs of people start shit with us. It’s usually the girls in the place that jump in and then we bang them…..because guys from Philly are fucking retarded.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 04:50
Now there's reports stating that Forrest's jaw is 'just fine.' WTF is going on...cant we get sum straight reports nowadays FFS?! This is bullshit.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 04:55
This is my video!!! Even though CagePotato spelled my name wrong. It's ok!! I was laughing too when someone yelled "Kick his ass Seabass!!".
Sun, 08/09/09 - 05:02
Goddamn! What the blessed fuck is wrong with Philly? It's as if all the rejects from Long Island, Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island, the Bronx, and the Jersey Shore got bussed into Philadelphia for some forced breeding program to create a Super Guido.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 06:27
Newsflash: People from Philly are assholes, this also in...sky is blue
Sun, 08/09/09 - 06:34
@Seoul Brother hahahahahah...thats amazing. and to all the philly haters: i dont condone this bs of fighting in the crowd but dont knock philly. fights break out at mma events everywhere. what was the wec event that had such a huge fight that they had to air a prelim fight just to get some time to break it up? Red bull gives you wings and affliction shirts make you a bad ass fighter who can throw down in the beer line. d bags are global son
Sun, 08/09/09 - 06:38
@ZMMAJUNKY awesome that you were on the ball recording that. i was directly across from the fight and everyone was pumped by it
Sun, 08/09/09 - 07:06
I have the perfect solution to breaking up a GuidoBrawl. Toss in Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales and announce that there will be a pop quiz in 5 minutes if they don't stop fighting. Bam! Literature. It's Kryptonite to Mooks.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 07:49
perfect example of idiot Filtha-adelphia Fans can't enjoy anything without acting like the truly White Trash shithole people they are...all of them.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 08:23
Torres just got KO'd!
Sun, 08/09/09 - 08:23
Ho-Lee-Shit... Torres just got dethroned.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 08:40
Torres got ktfo... this just in, barbershops around the midwest are reporting drastic losses in clientele requests for mullets.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 09:44
God damn first Forrest now Torres. I'm telling you man, if Torres and Bowles fought 100 times, Torres would win 98 of the times, he caught him with a strong lucky punch. Torres pretty much self destructed and pulled a Uriah Faber.
Sun, 08/09/09 - 11:39
Torres lost but he is still the man everyone gets caught eventually..except for maybe Anderson Silva :-X
Mon, 08/10/09 - 05:35
Just read that link and it looks like it was bad info... the article has been updated... "***Update: Forrest Griffin was not injured during his fight at UFC 101 against Anderson Silva and his quick exit following the knockout loss was from emotional — not physical distress." "MMAWeekly has confirmed with representatives from Zinkin Entertainment, Griffin’s management group, that he is physically fine following the Saturday night fight. Griffin suffered no broken jaw and he is physically okay, said the Zinkin representative, but emotionally he is definitely not dealing well with the loss. "
Mon, 08/10/09 - 05:50
yeah CP...update the post please...
Mon, 08/10/09 - 06:06
I'm amazed that more people haven't watched historical boxing matches. The punch that Anderson Silva used is referred to in the Boxing Industry as the Phantom Punch.. It's the same punch that Muhammed Ali used to Knock Out Sonny Liston.. and in the same manner. Liston threw a left while Ali was backing up, Ali hit him with the straight right to the jaw, knocked him out cold. Same shit happened to Griffin, except Anderson's was a HELLUVA lot clearer, and a HELLUVA lot cleaner. Striking at it's finest ladies and gentlemen, striking at it's finest.
Mon, 08/10/09 - 07:05
For those who want to see the Silva punch and still haven't for some reason: On Youtube (Before it gets taken down) youtube.com / watch?v=DcDJAPBWaus
Mon, 08/10/09 - 07:21
@C-Bus You want to know why that punch is called the "Phantom Punch"? Because it was a bullshit punch and if you'd known a little more about the fight you'd know that most people believe the fight was fixed, which isn't a huge surprise giving the era. In fact most people are positive it was fixed as Liston owed the Mafia a fucking bunch of money. So that "Phantom Punch" wasn't exactly the greatest thing to think of in this situation...........lol
Mon, 08/10/09 - 09:01
@Sheps, but if you'd ever watched the fight, you'd realise that it was just a clean punch that caught Liston off guard and off balanced. Liston never knew what hit him. Lets make this a little clearer shall we? Say you were supposed to throw the fight because you owed the Mafia a shit-load of money, would you A: Throw the fight on the weakest punch you could? or B: Throw the fight on one that looked like it could have legitimately knocked you out? If Liston was supposed to throw the fight, do you honestly think he would have chose the weakest, hardest to see punch he could have? Or would he have thrown it on a punch that could have KO'd him? Ali knocked Liston the fuck out, just like Silva knocked Forrest the fuck out. Neither fight was fixed. That off-balance counter shot has KO'd so many great fighters, it's no wonder it KO'd Griffin. Didn't help that Griffin was already practically stumbling when he got caught.
Mon, 08/10/09 - 10:44
# C Bus Lmao I watched the fight man, and that was a weak ass shot that didn't even hurt Liston. Sonny was one of the baddest men around at the time, you seriously think that was a legitimate punch? Have you ever boxed and thought "Oh that was a hard punch, I'll go down now". No no no, you can't fucking decide to hit the canvas AFTER getting hit, it's going to be a predetermined thing, your going to say "Next punch, I'm going down" hence why such a bullshit shot "knocked him out" Liston knew what round he had to go down in so he get ready for that, not for the punch. Dude did you even watch him hit the mat? He fucking lunged forward with no intention of even throwing a punch he knew he was going toward the mat. How can you even say he got "Knocked the fuck out" mate, he was writhing and wriggling around on the floor like an idiot trying to act hurt. Everyone knows that he took a dive, anyway I'm not even arguing that Forrest took a dive so your going the wrong direction there, I believe he was legitimately hurt but the phantom punch was a fixed dive by Liston and not the right thing to try to defend Forrest in this case.

Johnny Drama has some game!
Tue, 08/11/09 - 12:22
HOLY SHIT! anderson silva hit forrest so hard people are bringing up 50 year old Ali fights hahaha. i wasn't alive when that fight happened sheps but i bet any one of our punk asses would have dropped to the floor if ALi hit us with that "Phantom Punch"
