Betting site Sportsbook is the only one offering odds, but they put Hendricks at +175, GSP at -225. Here is the betting line for GSP's last 10 opponents, plus Hendricks. UFC 16?: Johny Hendricks +175 (-225) UFC 158: Nick Diaz +310 (-430) UFC 154: Carlos Condit +225 (-315) UFC 129: Jake Shields +350 (-550) UFC 124: Josh Koscheck +280 (-360) UFC 111: Dan Hardy +300 (-500) UFC 100: Thiago Alves +210 (-270) UFC 94: B.J. Penn +140 (-180) UFC 87: Jon Fitch +180 (-220) UFC 83: Matt Serra +350 (-430) UFC 79: Matt Hughes +165 (-205) Thoughts? Sounds fair enough to me. Hendricks certainly can lay GSP out with one shot, and GSP is slowly starting to slip IMO. He looks to have lost some explosiveness and some of his athletic ability post-injury, though he's still clearly the alpha fighter in the division. Still, Hendricks is a serious threat to his reign. Run this fight 10 times, I reckon Hendricks wins 3 times. :good :hat
The bookies have backed up my point about this being one of his most challenging fights in awhile.:good
