Forrest Griffin Fails Drug Test After Taking Xanax | UFC News
>Referring to his bout opposite Anderson Silva in UFC 101, Forrest Griffin told MMA Hour.

FORREST GRIFFIN TOOK XANAX THE NIGHT BEFORE HIS FIGHT WITH ANDERSON SILVA AT UFC 101. read the damn article.
I wouldve took many before that ass whippin, no disrespect to forrest!
this is not even my name, whats wrong with this site
Highly stressed out career, I cant blame him.
Forest is just another cheat caught. but because hes white thell still love his ass and hate on jon jones for being the man. suck shit Tito was gonna whoop forest nervous ass.
because he is white? people like you are the reason that when the race card should be used its discredited. Thats probably the dumbest sh*t I have ever heard. ….Wow. idiot.
+1
+2, this guy is a real dumbass
Stupid statement, I still think Jon jones is a selfish prick, not because he is black, but because of his lack of commitment to UFC 151
funny though forrest gets no flack but diaz for fuin cronic weeks befor is gone 1 fukin year…fuk the ufc antics
… just stop.. You’re ignoring so much shit when you say that. The fact that he lied. The fact that it was not weeks in any plural sense. The fact that weed is not a sedative. The fact that he was a repeat offender. The fact that it was the NSAC not the UFC that had to do with his suspension. Just stop and quit bitching about Nick Diaz.
Maybe that’s why he lost like that
