    Never say he would Destroy Carlos. His stand up is better the Kos, but is weaker on the ground. Would need to work on to take the jab and leg kicks away from GSP. Just as hard of a fighter as KOS....can take a very good puch and knows how to come from behind to win. I think it would be a good fight, but a win for GSP. Stay with the best fighter in the world untill he gets beat.

    I don't think Condit is so helpless standing. He throws straight punches and is pretty good technically.

    Condit is also pretty good off his back and solid with the triangle. So his strengths aren't exactly the sort that play into GSP's style.

    Problem is GSP's wrestling is just so damned good, and Condits takedown defense isn't so great.. It's why he has gotten so good with his triangles. GSP isn't the sort of guy that is going to be easy to sub, especially when he knows what you are good at..

    With a guy in his guard, but GSP would pass in a flash and beat him down.

    I think GSP's much superior wrestling is what gives him the edge in this fight. Condit is good on the ground but GSP is a complete monster on top. Dont forget Condit has to fight Chris Lytle first that is no easy fight.

    I would love to see this fight. Before last night i would think gsp would used his wrestling more and take condit down and beat him via GNP. But after last night i believe he would stand and trade with condit and win.
