Condit fight ruled correct in my opinion...Hendricks controlled him all night. So sick of the Diaz brothers and their classless bullhit arrogance. Never been a fan of GSP but hes all class.

It was the right decision, based on the scoring system, but definitely overvalued position/take downs when Condit was more effective on the ground and on the feet. The takedown ease is concerning, but I'd like to see Hendricks do something with that. |

I think Hendricks could give GSP a good run

I think Hendricks could give GSP a good run I think they will hump each other. Hendricks may try to swing at first but GSP will be to quick and it will be a humping match for 25 mins |

That was one of the most dominant five round performances ever seen. It wasn't like we saw GSP just lay on him, he was throwing strikes. Hendricks could give him a run, but I think GSP wins with relative ease. |

Everyone can hate on GSP all they want, and truthfully, I was one of them when I first heard of the guy. Mainly because of an audio clip I heard of him "disrespecting" an opponent... but after watching him fight many times and hearing this guy talk and the way he acts, he is one of... if not THE... most humble and respectable fighters in UFC. He might not be the most exciting fighter to watch due to him mostly doing his work on the ground, but ground game is a part of MMA, and he's borderline elite at controlling people on the ground. And the thing is, every opponent knows that he's a master on the ground... and yet, they still can't stop him. That right there tells you how great this guy is.

Easily the best MMA-adapted wrestling. I do find him exciting to watch though. His positioning on Saturday left me jaw-dropped. Diaz is not an elite BJJ (good not great) practitioner, by any means, but we've never seen him utterly dominated like that, on the ground. |

Unless Hendricks can do something about his cardio he won't beat gsp. He looked gassed in the 3rd against Condit and his fight against koscheck it seemed like there wasnt much behind his punches towards the end of the fight. If it goes into the championship rounds gsp will win. I think gsp is a boring fighter but he is the best gameplanner in the ufc, whatever opponent he faces he sets a game plan to beat them and sticks to it

GSP owned diaz the entire fight. |
