In what was definitely an instant classic, underdog Forrest Griffin won a five-round unanimous decision to oust reigning champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. In round one, Griffin was in total control, until a vicious right uppercut sent him staggering. Round two saw Griffin jump on the noticibly tired Jackson and control him from the top position for the round. Rampage came back in the third and a street fight broke out. In the fourth round, Griffin nearly made Jackson tap out with a tight triangle choke. The final round saw the champion and challenger go toe-to-toe, neither one seemingly satisfied by letting the fight to go to the judges' scorecards. Official scorecards read 48-46, 48-46 and 49-46 all for Griffin.
Rampage was rob just cause he is black
