Slim but stranger things have happened.
Though on paper Griffin is outmatched on all fronts.

Really?  I would think if he loses this, he is one loss away from being relegated to prelim fights.

he is a prelim fighter and he's fightin a Marquee fighter that's suppose to be a big player in the UFC......

he's down on the food chain lookin up which makes this fight kind of a "nothin much to really lose" type deal

griffin had a good showing (and lost) against an injured ortiz and that's about it as far as reachin any real status (title contention)

Griffin will hang for a few minutes and then get ko/tko'd, that's the way I see it going.

10% its an  all or nothing fight for him he needs to put on a good show

If Griffin lose's his stock wont go down. but if he puts on a good show they will definitely go up.

rua by tko late first.

I found this picture pretty strange, but maybe you're right.

Shogun by first round KO, probably by knees.

If Forrest is smart, he will get this fight to the ground.  He has decent jits skills, and good ground and pound.  If he decides to stand, he has a punchers chance.  Forrest beat Roberto Traven by sub.  Smart money is on Shogun.  Stranger things have happened, though.

He's going to become the official Team Chute Box punching bag and everyone's gonna talk about how much "heart" he has.
