Forrest Griffin is in the midst of a history-making run through the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
The ex-cop turned ultimate fighter followed up a brilliant performance against Mauricio Rua at UFC 76 with a unanimous-decision win over Quinton Jackson to claim the UFC light heavyweight title at Saturday's UFC 86 event in Las Vegas. Some fans questioned whether Griffin even deserved the title shot, but it's hard to have doubts now about Griffin's evolution from reality show star to world-class fighter.
