I second the hate for Tito.
It was good to see Koscheck win. He fights all the time and it's usually a brawl. Not a huge fan of him, but I'll root for him.

I used to hate Tito, until his coaching season on TUF, then I liked him. I also like Forrest, so this fight was a win/win for me.
Tito definitely won the first round, second round was close, 3rd round was definitely Forrest, so split decision was about right for what I'd expect.
I was surprised by Kos, I really thought Johnson would beat him.
Unfortunatly for the UFC, Kos is the 2nd best in the WW division, and he has zero chance against GSP, there is no one that can match GSP. I thought "Rumble" Johnson would have been that guy, but he's obviously not top tier yet.

Yeah im disappointed that Rumble lost, this will set him back a little bit. He has the physical tools to beat GSP but not the technique and skill. Koscheck might have the skill and experience to beat GSP but no where near the physical tools

I'm happy that Forrest won. Tito wants to coach opposite Forrest in the next season of the Ultimate Fighter. I'm all for that.
I was hoping Rumble would have beat Koscheck.
Impressive win by Little Nog also.

i lost all respect for Kos last night. If you watched the fight he faked an injury. Johnson knee'd Fos when he was down but Kos checked it with his arms at the same time johnsons hands kinda went across his left eye. Kos then fell back grabbing his Right eye. The replay clearly showed his right eye was untouched. Kos then acted like he didnt want to fight and the doctor almost stopped the fight. Kos took pretty much the full 5 mins before fighting. While he was taking his injury timeout he held his eye closed and squited the whole time then the fight starts up and it was wide open with not a mark on it by the end of the fight. He also later poked Johnson in the eyes twice with the second one looking intentional. He then called Dan Hardy out after the fight. Little Nog and (the dude from TUF who lost to swick his previous fight i cant think of his name right now looked really good) Forest bounced back ok but Tito gave him a good fight.

Last night made me hate Tito even more. He said numerous times going into the fight that he was 100% finally. Then after the fight, all we heard were a bunch of excuses about how he had a cracked skull and a bulging disc or whatever other excuse he wanted to come up with.
Tito is a douche and hopefully he is out of the UFC again.

Nah, Forrest won but I think it's bullshit that one judge ruled it 30 - 27 against Tito. It was a 29-28 fight.

i had it 29-28 forrest. Tito defitley lost round three. I gave round one to Forrest because while Tito had a take down he didn't pretty much 0 damage from the top and Forrest landed more strikes when it was standing. I would guess in round one he won the strikes almost 2-1. ROund two i would give to Tito becuase he has the takedowns and landed a few shots and Forrest really only landed a few shots in the time they were standing
