One of the more insightful responses I've gotten so far.

Anyone who is whining because Forrest was swearing needs to get a fucking life.

Yeah I agree. He didn't show any class after winning that title belt and it shows how his maturity really hasn't grown too much since he has rised in the UFC.

I find it hilarious that anyone not offended by watching one man beat another bloody and unconscious could be offended by profanity.

Hmm. I wonder what inspired me to reply to this silly thread. Icehouse maybe.
Maybe because to get a TV deal and air MMA to the mainstream you need fighters to not cuss thier asses off. Maybe just maybe, MMA could expand more if people felt they could watch it with thier kids without F bombs going off.

Or maybe, just maybe, you have no fucking brain and think MMA should stay PPV forever and adult friendly only.

You're probablly just a dumb fucking kid who doesn't realize that it wasn't the smartest idea for Forrest to start swearing like an idiot in that moment. Yeah........great speech champ.

Agreed, not classy. Forrest has the fan base he has because he's a funny respectable smart fighter with tons of heart. He's not the fighter you expect to hear the swearing from. At least not dropping the f-bomb. Theres just no need for it.

I mean c'mon ya gotta kinda think about the younger fans who's parents are already not sure about letting there kids watch "Human cockfighting" and then all of a sudden there listing to a string of cursing.
