Anyone in here that watches MMA?
Not just UFC of course... ;)
Anyways, I thought I'd open a MMA thread to talk about interesting upcoming events, fighters and what not.
Everyone following the sport knows about GSP vs Condit for sure.
What are your thoughts?
Will ring rust and the injury affect George?
Is he going to win, by decision again or finally a finish after "feeling the butterflies" again?
What about Condit?
Will he fight GSP trying to finish him like in most of his fights or follow a similar approach to his stick and move strategy against Diaz?
I have George taking it by exciting 5 round decision...

I don't know if I'm checking in late on this or not. Since I don't do pay-per-view I don't really keep track of the dates of these fights.
But if I'm on time I'm going to pick GSP by tap-out in the 3rd. GSP is a much more mobile fighter than Nick Diaz, much faster on his feet and his takedowns are much more forceful. I'm thinking that he'll feel out Condit in the first, bang on him in the 2nd, and a couple of takedowns and either a rear naked choke or an arm bar in the 3rd.
I think that Diaz actually beat Condit but he spent too much time trading with him and gave away his clearly superior ground game and that cost him the fight. I think that Diaz has possibly the best BJJ in that weight class and if he would have used it he would have done Condit in early. I would have paid to see a GSP/Diaz fight. That would be a classic.
GSP might have some ring rust on him, I don't think the injury is going to be an issue. He has done a monster rehab and the ACL is totally fixable with today's medical technology. That man has the true heart of a warrior, I think the ring rust (if any) will dissipate quick and he'll get it done. He is by far the classiest fighter going.

I'm more of a kick boxing fan myself but I don't really follow it too closely. I guess I could be described as a casual observer.
