Arona.

Serious question?

 

[Medical Marijuana Man]

Arona takes him down with ease to a UD or possibly submission

 

[Dead Kennedy]

Arona easily...

 

[ralphus1]

Arona by dominance. Everywhere.

 

[Sweater of AV]

Arona imho.

 

[Fatality]

What kind of fool would pick Forrest over Arona?

 

[BigTruck]

Arona takes him down with ease to a UD or possibly submission

How many submission wins does he have and how many submission losses does forrest have?

It would be an easy fight for Arona but he'd win by UD he didnt seem to really care about submissions as much as just control. Forrest is super overrated too imo

 

[Escabar]

It would look like the first round of Tito vs Forrest 1 but for the whole fight. Forrest always had poor takedown defence.

 

[Medical Marijuana Man]

How many submission wins does he have and how many submission losses does forrest have?

Do you know what possibly means? None of that applies in MMA. Anything can happen.

C'mon man he couldn't put away marvin fucking Eastman. I'd say he'd tko forrest before he submitted him.

[PeleProtege]

Arona by molestation

Ring vs cage makes a big difference here. In the cage where Forrest can wall walk, I wouldn't count him out. Forrest is a big guy with very underrated bjj and I think with a proper gameplan, he could take him. Great fight idea but lol @ people completely counting out Forrest. The Arona fanboys are still strong after all this time.... isn't he STILL rumored to be coming back?? <45>

Same tools who picked him over Rampage and Shogun back in 2007/2008.
