Ok, Rich and Dan both have fought at 205 but they haven't beat an elite 205er(don't think there is one). You bring up Kampman, Wandy and Diego dropping down and the reason they're dropping down is because they can't win at the higher weight class mainly because of size.

GSP is a GREAT MMA wrestler but a very big part of that is because he's as big or bigger than most of the guys he fights.

Listen I love GSP and he's an elite fighter but his chances vs Silva are very small.

Saying all of that, move GSP up and let him fight a LW. Lets see how he does and then go from there. Silva has dominated his weight class but he didn't get put right up to the top of the LHW class. The reason BJ did is because he's fought at every weight there is(except HW).

The weight thing could go on all day..... GSP and Silva are both on another level than any fighter at either weight class, there is no perfect comparison.

I disagree that Sanchez and Kampmann couldnt win at their previous weight classes; both guys had two losses, Diego has still never been finished and one of Martin's losses was due to a cut. But again, neither of these guys are in the same arena as GSP.

There is an argument that Silva's lone UFC victory at 205 doesnt mean much because now James Irvin is dropping down to 185. :shrug:

The last guy Anderson lost to now fights at 170, and he's not even very good. :SIB

I think Anderson's fight with Leites will surprise some people..... if Anderson blows him up, maybe i'll change my mind.

GSP best pound for pound fighter in the world...perhaps tied for first with Anderson.

Yet according to bucs....he has NO chance against Rich Franklin or Anderson....

ummm ok......:eek:


Bucs you do realize that as time passes you make me laugh more and more. I appreciate that.

I mean this forum is great for discussions but how can one take you seriously when you say GSP has "NO CHANCE" against those guys. I mean please. If GSP fights Anderson at "catch weight" he'll beat him. GSP gets better and better every fight and has zero weaknesses. He trains better then almost anyone. And fights intelligently every fight.

Yet he has "NO CHANCE"....umm yeah:rolleyes:




And this fight WILL happen by years end....count on that. Of course if something crazy happens and Anderson losses his next fight then it won't. But that ain't gonna happen.

Only nuthuggers think GSP would beat Anderson, yet alone at any specified weight class.

dude....GSP could fight Hitler and you'd cheer for Hitler....he could fight a 7 year old boy and you'd say the boy lost because GSP cheated.

GSP could fight Stalin and Hitler in a tag team match and we'd know who you'd pick.

GSP could win his next 700 fights all by 1st round TKO and you'd rank him 973rd on the pound for pound list.

"No Chance".....:rolleyes:

You expect anyone to take your replies serious with ignorant responses like that? Get a clue...

I even said that BJ Penn lost and got pounded. That doesn't change the fact that Georgie was greasing????

bucs...no use no matter what we say nothing will ever change your mind.

And I would love to see the Anderson/GSP fight....of course even if GSP beats him in 9 seconds you'll still say "GSP cheated" or "GSP got lucky" or GSP isn't that good" or...well you get the idea.

And GSP/Anderson will happen...Dana will make tons of cash off that fight...and it will hands down be the biggest fight in MMA history. Hard to believe it won't happen. $$$$ talks:SIB

Then again GSP has "no chance" against Rich Franklin or Anderson so maybe it won't happen:142smilie


And please don't get banned again bucs...you make me laugh...and laughter is a healthy part of life:)

I never knew I was banned when I was, so it's all irrelevant to me. I was on vacation anyways.

Once again, you preach your GSP is god and hypothetical speaking, yet fail to address the main issue. Why would GSP stand a chance?

Bucs, he was joking around about the ban. It was a kickserv MMA forum ban.

I agree with you that GSP has(I won't say no chance because it's mma) little chance. And for the record they did say why they thought he would win, his speed and wrestling ability to basically gnp Silva. You might not agree with it but they did give you a reason.

No Bucs was banned from MJ for a few days from an NBA post for dropping a few racial slurs. He apologized and has done nothing wrong here.

I think Silva would be able to take GSP, but it would not be as easy as Bucs is making it sound. This just in, GSP is damn good(grease or no grease as Bucs has admitted).

I would love to see this fight and I am sure Dana knows every MMA fan is waiting on it and is time to cash in. IT WOULD BE BIGGER THAN GSP/PENN and he knows it so expect it maybe even late this year.

Kickserv is a fan fav of both but his man crush would have him leaning towards GSP.
GSP fights guys at 170 who come up from 155.
Silva fights 185 goes who go from 205 to 185 so to say weight is not a factor is silly.
Silva has faced bigger,stronger guys,but not faster.

I would never bet Silva if he was near 2-1 odds against GSP.
