Yeah, we are talking about a guy who gives alot of scripted interveiws to a bunch of fake-ass pro-wrestlers. I've heard cussing in the WWE too, and the funny thing about it is that it's scripted. Atleast when Forrest cussed it was because of the heat of the moment, and it was the adreniline, and fight jitters wearing off, not to mention, he was just crowned LHW champ.

With few exceptions I agree. I always find that NOT using vulgarity gets my points across much better.

If someone can handle watching some bloody fights, I think they can handle a little "salty" language. I start cussing too if I just spent 25 minutes in a bloody fight and then got booed. (I'd probably be a lot worse).

I'm not so much offended by the profane language. However, as stated by this gentleman, this was a career defining moment. Forrest's biggest win. All eyes were on him and he couldn't come up with anything better than vulgarities and nonsense. You only get to win your first title once.

I agree. He could of been like GSP and just been overwhelmed or like Fedor and not say anything at all. Say something proper since he's only gonna win the title once

Agreed. I have lost a little bit of respect for forrest. Granted it was right after a 25 minute war and being interviewed isnt the easiest thing to do. However, I was very proud of Page for showing some real class in his post fight. He could have been a real cry baby, but he acted dignified respected his opponent and made his commen in the press conference. Thats the type of behavior a true champ demonstrates.
