    Pierre vs. Silva is far more desirable.

    Silva is way to fast for Liddell. Silva's speed, along with better technique, will allow him to beat Liddell to the punch every time.

    Pierre is fast in his own right. While not the striker Silva is, GSP does understand this aspect of mma as well. GSP is also good at putting top notch wrestlers on their backs. I would be much more intrigued by this match-up than I would Silva vs. Liddell.

    Chuck's more shot than a pheasant on a hunting trip. I'd much rather see GSP vs Silva.

    A fight with GSP is more interesting but if it means a permanant move up to 205 then Liddell.

    Easily GSP. Chuck should already be retired. I'm sure there is still a couple bucks left in his name and they are gonna extract as much as possible but barring a hell of punch landing, Silva will ko him easily. GSP presents alot of other possible scenarios.

    I guess I would choose GSP, though I think the fight would be one-sided.

    How about Silva vs. Machida? That's a fight I'd pay to watch.

    maybe now he dose that fight was how long ago. when rashad couldnt finish a ****ing fight and was a shitier version of arona. also jardien has 3 ko loses and they were less than a minute thats a glass jaw.

    look he got koed by travis wuiff who has no ko power in 5 seconds.

    Chuck.

    He's a great wrestler and a much bigger man. Obviously he'd have to turn it into a wrestling match.

    GSP looked like a midget vs Fitch.

    Of course. Surprised me with how one-sidedly he beat Fitch, who I though might provide a bad style match-up for him. GSP is still a strong contender for p4p#1 or 2.

    No way in hell is he! GSP could stop Couture's takedowns over the course of two dominant wins? Could make Tito's takedowns look ineffectual and powerless? Could sprawl & brawl on Kevin Randleman? Don't think so!

    gsp would be able to take silva down easier and hold him there better. chuck hasnt used his wrestling as a weapon in a while. gsp also has better takedown defence than them. kos is the ww version of randle man. gsp has also made hughes, sherk, trigg, fitch all look like amature rookie wrestlers. p4p gsp is a better wrestler. could he beat randy and randelman at wrestling maybe not but p4p gsp is better. chuck wouldnt make it to the olympics where as gsp could.
