Did I have the stones to pick a Forrest Griffin upset over Shogun? Check out the preview to find out.
BTW, my editor, Denny Burkholder, has been hard at work making some changes to the MMA and boxing section and expanding the coverage so check it out.
Rumor has it that a new writer is also being brought on board but I can’t divulge details.
