If GSP wins he'll have to have a start gameplan.

I don't see what's so bad about that. He's much smaller and doesn't have the striking advantage.

Silva for me.

Silva @ 180 is a more scary prospect than GSP @ 180. For me Silva's takedown defence has improved massively and on the feet Silva as more weapons than GSP.

Also 1 fight - assuming he beats condit, is not enough after 12-14 month lay off to then take on Silva.

Actually if I'm honest - i think the fight will never actually happen. Never the right time etc - bit like the nonsense that is Mayweather v Pacman. Should have happened 2 years ago when at their peaks - not now.

I agree.That's not my point though, Phil.

I'm just giving my prediction.It's no different to me saying that if Dan Hendo was to beat Jones, I'd expect it to be a flash knockout from an overhand right.

If GSP wins I'd expect it to be less exciting fight than one where Silva wins.That's all.

I'm a bit dubious about it happening too.

Aren't Mayweather and Pacman in the same weightclass? If so, that really is a nonsense whereas at least Silva and GSP have the legit obstacle of being in different divisions.

Yep, I'd put my money on Silva too.

Would be good to see the odds that match up get's.
