“That double impact,” Griffin told TMZ about the importance of the role … “You’ve taken the first trauma and when your head hits the ground, bang bang, both sides of your brain actually bounce against your skull. We want to prevent that and make it just the initial impact and have that be what causes you or not causes you to win or lose the competition.”
Forrest Griffin will be bringing some star power to the Power Slap League, with the hall of famer being a former UFC champion who has shared the cage with the likes of Anderson Silva, Tito Ortiz, Rashad Evans, Quinton Jackson, and many others. He also took part in one of the most iconic fights in UFC history against the recently passed Stephan Bonner at the season finale of the first Ultimate Fighter.
