    Hey now - I have nothing but love and respect for GSP. He is one of my favorite fighters.

    But we're discussing head to head competition against Matt Serra.

    All other factors excluded: Serra beat GSP last time. I am saying it can happen again.

    lol

    Otsuka beats the older version of Ruas every time they fight. The younger Ruas would have been able to keep up the pace. But I get your point.

    I'm just speaking up for Serra because no one else will and the fight is almost here.

    I can't wait. It should be a great fight no matter which way it goes.

    I think Serra is ****ing hilarious. Maybe a little on the ******* side but that makes him funnier.

    I think it can definitely happen again especially considering the fact that Serra is very good on the ground.

    I agree. I'm a big GSP fan but I find it hard not to like Serra. Even when he's acting like a total jerk, there's always something very tongue in cheek about it.

    I'm not sure he's better than GSP though, simply because of George's size and strength. If I had to bet on a Serra win, I'd be way more confident going with a KO.

    I don't bet on anything, even MMA. But putting some down on Serra isn't a bad bet. He's got a decent shot, and it's a good payout. I think Serra's the type of guy that will give GSP fits, and I'm not expecting a blowout tonight. GSP will likely get his revenge, but Serra's going to look like a champion on his way out.

    Serra is a tough guy to beat, most of his fights go to UD's and he really doesn't have any weaknesses. His short stocky frame makes him a difficult oppenent. I just hope GSP can beat him and move on to bigger and better things.

    I don't bet serious money. I'm just talking about Vcash.

    As dominant as I expected, not quite as violent, but Serra isn't even a top 6 opponent of GSP's.

    Basically a man fighting a child. I'm glad order was restored to the universe.

    Very impressive performance by GSP. I knew he was the greater fighter, but I was honestly worried that he was going to have another huge mental setback. He just went in there and mauled Serra.

    GSP dominated. Wasn't even close. Crow tastes good. Yum yum!

    As for B-Hop- Clazaghe - I thought Hopkins clearly won the fight. Judges saw it differently.

    I wonder what Jon Fitch is thinking right now? He's another wrestler that will get beat at his own game. He is a good matchup for GSP.
