True....but Shields has a smaller gas tank. I think it will be a little more interesting fight than many people are giving it credit for."He woke up because I kept punching him in the face." --Thiago Alves

Re: GSP moving up, thoughts?
I think GSP can wrestle with anyone really. I think he could still be the best wrestler in the MW division. Having a really strong wrestling background seems to keep guys in the game it seems like so i just cant count him out from doing big things in MW, maybe just not as easy.Comment

Re: GSP moving up, thoughts?
I don't count him out really, I just think it will be tougher. Like he will fall to being a little above average where he is used to being the top dog in the division. In all honesty, I hope he goes in and cleans house. I want to see him do really well."He woke up because I kept punching him in the face." --Thiago Alves

Re: GSP moving up, thoughts?
heres my thoughts, my best friend weighs 35 lbs less, and i can out lift him or be even on most anything, now in arm wrestling, he fckn crushes me, and he never practices it, it's just some combo of muscle type, structure of bone, deltoid-arm connection
imho, gsp is probably twice as strong as he looks, he dominates everyone when he gets them on the ground and never looks like he's struggling, he is above average in every part of the game, and imho, it's his strenght/power ratio compared too other guys
silva, imho, the most precise/precision striker i've ever seen, imho, if you re-watch his fights he never ever throws wild shyte, he's a counter puncher who waits, and hits what he strikes almost every time exactly where he inteded, that's deadly, again he's above average in every thing, with this one super strength
we know gsp has been knocked out, and silva has fought some strong ass dudes in that weight class, dan henderson etc............................
gsp works out like a mofo and can go the distance, and he also is a great strategist, i have no idea if silva is cause it's all counter stufff
i haven't seen silva chael sonnennn, i would imagine gsp will use that fight as a blue print, some say sonnenn beat him, or whatever
i really do see this as fight of the decadeComment

Re: GSP moving up, thoughts?
i agree. it will be hard for GSP to match anderson's size at 185 as he probably walks to the ring at 205ishOriginally posted by tn94z View Post
also putting on the #s for GSp will it take away his cardio? will he loose speed? anderson is hard to finish.
GSP will need to finish as the bigger man will tire him out.
but GSP wants to cement his name as the best ever. its a loose loose for silva. if he wins he is the bigger man. if he looses he got beat by a 170 #r"SHIAT BIOTCH, thats a big ass!"

Re: GSP moving up, thoughts?
The thing about the fight is who has GSP finished lately? IF GSP gets Anderson down, he won't be able to hold him there and grind out a decision against Anderson. Anderson throws strikes from the bottom as well as anyone....I mean look at Chael's face at the end of that fight. I just really don't see any way that GSP can beat Anderson. Standing, Anderson wins hand's down. On the ground, I think Anderson wins. GSP will more than likely get takedowns. Power goes to Anderson. Ability to take a shot goes to Anderson (that guy has a chin of granite that no one ever talks about). I mean, the only way I could see GSP winning is grinding out a decision on the ground, and I think Anderson is too goo to let that happen.
And I agree with jipped, it's a lose lose for Anderson. Everyone says he should move up anyway. Beating GSP will not prove anything really."He woke up because I kept punching him in the face." --Thiago Alves
