Griffin vs. Rua is a pivotal fight for both men.
Forrest and Rua both need to redeem themselves for recent losses.
Rua needs a shining debut in the UFC. He doesnt need a shocking ass-whooping like a certain Croatian got. Robbie Lawler gave him a good pounding in Elite XC last week.
Griffin needs to step out from the ranks of 'up-and-coming' fighters, and break into the big time. He's also still smarting from his defeat by Jardine.
I'm realy pulling for Forrest. I feel, and hope, that this is his day.

You're right. I got the names mixed up.

You're also right in that Forrest needs to be more consistent. He can't be 'hot and cold' if he's gonna climb the ladder.
