uuughgh.

i don't see how GSP's body can support an additional 15-20lbs and still be effective.

GSP walks around at 170/175 most of the time and barely has to cut weight.

Silva, on the other hand, walks around at 195/200 and cuts for the fight at 185, then walks back into the ring at 192/193.

i can't imagine a 185 GSP. he's my favorite fighter and if there was anyone out there that could maintain focus and a strict trainig regime while moving UP in class it would be GSP.

that for sure is a dream match-up - as would a Overeem and Velasquez fight, but Overeem likes stabbing his *** cheeks with chemicals - that's why he's safe fighting overseas.......

I haven't ordered a ufc fight in a few years now, more often than not it's a bunch of boring fights. I think with merging of the ufc and wec it will make for some better cards hopefully.

Gotta agree with you man. As much as people bash boxing, i still prefer it over UFC. I cant remember the time fans actually booed during a fight in boxing compared to UFC?

Glad I didn't pay $60 for the fight - great card, tons of hype, but I enjoy getting my money's worth and the Silva fight was 2-mins of dancing and feeling each other out and then a 2-second Knockout
