Go Tiago what is this :o :o :o GSP is the best in the World. I've liked him eversince the first time I saw him fight. I knew he'd be where hes at today. GO GSP. Now I hate to disagree but one thing I think we might be able to agree on is that Michael Bisping needs a beat down.

I second whoever said Lesnar shouldn't hold the belt with a 3-1 record. I hope Brock gets his ankle snapped and his nugget lumped. I don't like Mir too much but I can't stand Lesnar.

Cant really argue that Lesnar shouldnt hold the belt at 3-1. Granted, I DO think he will be the champ in the weight class for a long time, but I would have liked to see him work for it, not have the chance given to him so easy. Just like Rampage Jackson... IMHO.

I think Lesnar will end it in the first three minutes, he is too big and too strong, and as long as he is just a little smart it won't be much of a fight. As far as holding a title with a 3-1 record, old school thought is that you need to beat on guys that suck for a few years and then beat on a few that are pretty good for a couple of years and then when the champ absolutely has to fight you he will and then the best fighter holds the title, and that is why boxing is falling fast, the two best fighters take five years before they ever see each other in the ring. He may be 3-1 but I have a feeling he will fight whoever is put in front of him without complaint, as it seems most ufc fighters will, and in the other weight classes where there are quite a few really good fighters they mix an match until they have the two best out there in a relatively short time, plus when they hold an event they have several good fights, unlike boxing with a main event and a bunch of people you have never heard of.

If the fight goes all the way GSP will win. He is in better shape than anyone i have ever seen. The reason i am down on Tiago is when he beat matt he could not make weight. I do not respect any fighter that comes to the fight and does not make the weight. That shows disrespect to the other fighter,Fans, and the organization. What makes me the madest is it still goes down as a win for the the fighter that did not work hard enough to make weight. Now i think he would have still beat Matt anyways, but the fact is the facts right. I am looking forward to the GSP Tiago fight the most. This sounds funny coming from a fat guy ya know. I know Goucho is thinking it. :lol:

 

GSP Is the best in his class in my opinion. Lots of guys think he is a cheat because he was being wiped down with vaseline in the penn fight. I do not think he was even aware that it was being done. He would have beat BJ anyways. There was only one time in that fight that i think it would have helped GSP. If anything I think BJ won the first fight when they met a couple years ago. I will be going for GSP because of his work ethics.

..... And Barry Bonds didn't know his trainer was giving him steroids, or Sammy Sosa didn't know that someone switched out his corked batting practice bat with his game bat. At the end of the day who is the final person that has to make sure they are playing by the rules? He may have good work ethic, but his ethics seem to be lacking in other areas. No big deal... Like I said before he just reminds me to much of Jean Claude Van Dame anyway :) No doubt he's a great fighter, just not my favorite.

 

I think those of you that think a fighter should have to pay his dues before wearing a belt have a very valid point. I also think that in the case of Brock Lesnar that early on in the contract negotiations Lesnar insisted on fighting top ranked fighters. I think the UFC was scrambling trying to find a poster boy heavyweight fighter to fill the shoes of the recently fallen Tim Silvia who was never really favored by the fans at all. He was boo'd more than cheered and was not all that fun to watch (unless you're talking about when Frank Mir snapped his forearm). The UFC finally got sick of Tim Silvia not drawing a crowd so they get crowd favorite Randy Coture to go de-throne him. Not even the UFC expected Coture to keep the belt for very long, they just wanted Silvia gone. Long story short.... Lesnar's timing was perfect. His size was perfect. And so far he seems to fit the poster boy fan favorite the UFC was hoping for in a heavyweight...... Now that is $$$ CHANGE $$$ that the UFC can believe in B)

All you people that pick Mir hopefully remeber what just happend to Randy Coutre and Coutre would destroy Mir. Lesnar round one under 3 minutes. This one is worth listening to me on all you gamblers.Lots of money to be paid. Happy Hunting!!

I'm pretty sure Silvia doesn't even have a UFC contract anymore. He's really gone from champ to chump!

I can't wait to watch these fights!

 

I really think it depends on which Frank Mir shows up. Is it going to be the one that out boxed Nogiera and really made him look bad, the Mir that snapped Sylvia's arm, or the fat POS head case that tried to comeback after his motorcycle accident. There's no doubt Frank Mir has way more technical skill than Brock. I also think he's a much more intelligent fighter. Finally, he already knows that Brock can be beat, cause he about broke the big boys leg once already. I love how Lesnar whined about Mazzagatti not stopping it fast enough last time. What a big ol baby huey wuss!

 

If Frank tries to stand with him, it's going to be over quick in the first round with a Lesnar KO, but if it goes to the later rounds and a fair amount of it is fought on the ground, I'll give it to Mir. My prediction: Mir in 4 by TKO.

 

Not a huge fan of the French Canadian, but he has certainly earned my respect with his wins over BJ Penn, Matt Hughes, etc. I think Alves is going to have the fight of his life on his hands and he better be ready! My prediction: GSP in 2 with a KO!

 

Dan Henderson is going to destroy Bisbing! at least I hope so! I hate that arrogant Brit!
