Watching him jab Kos half to death for 5 rounds was not boring. I honostly don't know what people want from him. Of his 22 wins he finished 13 of them. Including TKO PJ Penn, TKO Matt Serra, submitted and TKO'd Matt Hughes.

You do realize that he can finish these fights if he wanted too, right? And I'm sure Dana and the Feritta Bros, pay him to keep the fight going. That's why Silva got into trouble with Dana.

The Dan Hardy fight is the lone exception. He had multiple chances at breaking his arm and didn't. However I maintain Hardy's joints are made of rubber.

I think GSP was looking for the knockout with that overhand right all night, but once his eye got gouged that was it. He couldn't do what he wanted to do.
The card ended up being awesome. |

I missed last nights show, last one i caught was Silva v. Belfort... ... what. a. letdown.
Not only was that fight a joke, but the rest of the card wasnt very hot either. |

I will be the first one to say GSP does not have the most exciting style, but that's a huge part of why he's so good. He takes zero unnecessary risks and he is probably the best all around fighter today. If he fights Silva he will take him down and beat him up for 25 minutes.

When Silva moves up a weight class he still looks big compared to the other fighter. I just don't think George is big enough to man handle Silva. Hope I'm worong though. I can't stand all Silva's antics. |

He's only 5'11" which could ne an issue but he's so freaking talented that if Silva doesn't catch him with something crazy I think he'll be ok.

This last fight was boring after his eye injury, but I would prefer to watch someone like him that doesn't finish as often, but is an agressor(GSP, Fitch) in a fight then a someone that just lives off being a counter puncher(Machida, Arlovski).

Hominick quickly became one of my absolute favorites, he's an animal.
