This guy has never cut like that to my knowledge, so I have no wonder how much that takes out of his endurance especially at his age. That's going to be interesting. [Reply]

As it is he doesn't cut at all. He just trains and shows up, I doubt he has the diet alot of the other guys have to follow. [Reply]
Anyone else stoked for GSP v Shields? I think it will be a good fight. I also like the Aldo v Hominick fight. And you can't forget Randy's last stand. If he can get inside and contro the cage he could beat Machida. [Reply]

Yes, very stoked about these fights! I'm of the opinion GSP will walk through Shields though. I hope I'm wrong and it is a good fight! [Reply]

I hope you're right. It will be a lot more entertaining if so. [Reply]

I don't think Shields brings anything to the table for GSP to be concerned about. I think it's going to be another 50-45 fight for GSP. [Reply]

So looking forward to Saturday.
The gang from my fantasy football pool gathers for our annual "Winter Meeting" of GM's for $ payouts and discussions followed by the fight, all at my place - sending the wife & kid to in-laws for the evening. Should be a hoot.
I love how Hominick is sponsored by my home town CFL team the Hamilton Tiger Cats. He's apparently coming into the ring with their jersey on and will have the logo stitched onto his shorts. [Reply]

I agree, Shields is very talented but GSP has no equal at 170 IMO. [Reply]

Rest of the card looks pretty solid. Hope it's better than that last POS.
It would take a mistake like the Matt hughes fight for GSP to get subbed, I don't think that happens here. Aldo is remarkable and I think Hominick is good but will lose. The next card looks like a bit of a turd. [Reply]
