Forrest was nervous and had nothing intelligent to say because he knows he barely scraped by with a win, what should have been a draw, and he was filling his embarrassment in with cuss words, i thought it was terrible and doesn't help the sport move any closer to main stream

If they want to expand they need to realize that there are other demographics out there.

It's only a matter of time before large amounts of young kids start looking up to these guys in a big way. Little kids beg mommy and daddy for PPV. I used to demand that Summerslam/Wrestlemania/Royal rumble get ordered as a kid. I'm sure the little Billys of the world are pleading with their parents to get these events. So the parents sit down with billy, because they are responsible interested parents. Maybe they enjoy the event. Then Forrest acts like a classes clown. Next time billy begs for PPV, parents might not be so quick to oblidge, or order Billy those cool UFC gloves he wants.
I am a Marketing Grad from UF and having the UFC or any MMA org. target little kids is a very bad idea. If fake wrestling causes legal problems for the WWE, imagine what little kids fighting would do for MMA's image. The whole idea is to target the older crowd. As as you can see by JR's comments, the older crowd does not like to hear cussing (unless its for a good reason.)

Rampage is ghetto, its his style, go to memphis and check out the area where he grew up and maybe you will understand better.

Third post, we get it. You're cooler and manlier than the rest of us. Now, go indulge yourself in more porn, beat your woman, cuss some more, and tell us why college is a waste of time.

LOL! I hope this was intended as sarcasm. So, I'm guessing he's not engaging in premarital sex either? Being a Christian and all. I've seen casual pics that would imply a different story.
