UFC 154 : GSP vs Condit

[McGuire86]

Anyone watching this in abit ?

Can't wait! Will be interesting to see how GSP fights after his ACL injury and 18month lay off, will he be as dominate as he was before? Will be a great fight against Interim champ, Condit!

Rumor is, if GSP wins then a superfight between him and Anderson Silva will take place next year! :panic:

Co-main event should also be pretty good, Kampmann vs Hendricks :boxing:

[Jaytee]

Just about watch the stout fight bit behind as iv just got in. Carvalho's leg kicks were brutal in that first fight.

[Jaytee]

Pretty good event. Hendricks' knock was great. And the main event was better than i thought it would be. Condit defo has some game about him. What next for GSP.

[McGuire86]

Great fight, GSP looked a little bit rusty by his standards but I think it's safe to say the injury hasn't effected him.

Next for him is the fight everyone wants, Anderson Silva super fight ! Just hope they make it happen.

yea both fighters want it! will be around feb time tho if it does,

and that event was awesome gsp and condit went at it for 25mins :D

[McGuire86]

GSP isn't as keen as Silva is though, he's reluctant to move up weight.

Was a great fight.

Silva doesn't know what he wants atm does he? I know he was dead set on fighting GSP before but I'm sure he's said he's thinking of a year off lately.

Seems he does want the fight but still wants a while off

and Dana's still determined to make it happen http://youtu.be/0pamZXpr5Zc

awesome fight! had to watch it again last night.

All about the big rigs left hand again though! wonder if he'll get a shot at GSP, or GSP will look to fight Silva?!?

Definitely sent a message, Dana's said he wants to focus on the super fight happening and rather than leave him waiting he'll have another fight before he gets a shot at GSP.

yeah, more money in GSP vs Silva.

I would rather see Silva vs Bones though... would make a better fight, IMO.

Hendricks should fight either Diaz, or Condit to be worthy of a title shot too...

either way, GSP looked in great shape yesterday! I watched a prog about him getting back in shape, and he's been doing tonnes of gymnastics to get in peak condition - such a great athlete!

A lot more I'd imagine.

Silva really doesn't seem keen on fighting Jones, said a few reasons like he respects him too much and is too close with him (Sure he hasn't known him that long though) an that he's at an age were he can't go up to his weight class n be able to drop back down. So he'd have to stay at 205 if he did it.

Yeah sounds fair to me, Diaz tweeted saying he wasn't impressed by GSP's performance LOL.

Yeah I watched that as well

[McGuire86]

The plan is to have Silva fight GSP and if he wins then they want him to fight Jones (providing he beats Sonnen)
If that doesn't go to plan then they want Jones to fight JDS at the end of next year (providing JDS beats Cain and Overeem)
Lots of big things happening in the UFC next year to make up for a shit year, they've announced the women's division aswell, and the new year will start off with Bisping vs Belfort.
