Props to GSP for another excellent fight and a huge show of sportsmanship at the end.

Wasn't too impressed with the Lesner fight.

I don't think anyone actually saw it? To be honest, I forgot all about it myself and am watching a copy that a buddy burned for me now.

I saw it. I enjoyed the Lesner fight. I was surprised as to how f'n fast he was for being so big.

GSP put up a good fight, but overall none of the fights really stood out as anything special.

I'm actually going to the one on Oct 25 with a buddy. Its in Chicago. SILVA!!

I watched it & it was pretty much what I expected, a game, well prepared Fitch vs a better and also well prepared GSP.

The potential GSP/ BJ Penn is intriguing!!

Indeed. Round Two would be interesting. I really enjoyed the first fight. I just don't feel that BJ is a true welterweight. GSP still has the take-down advantage, even if Penn is better on his back.

And since they've fought, GSP has improved substantially. It would make for another great fight though.

I don't think BJ is a true welterweight either and I think they’ve both improved but GSP more so. I give the edge to George, If he fights his fight (strength, wrestling, cardio) he should win.

BUT

If BJ can somehow turn this into something other than a wrestling match.............. anything could happen.

Depends on which BJ Penn shows up, the dedicated focused Penn or the cardio lacking burnt out by the second round Penn. I like both fighters so Id enjoy it.
