I think Rory should fight Nate Marquardt next. He's a beast at 170 lbs. He ain't fighting GSP for the title so I wouldn't know who he would fight next after Condit.
They might not have the same relationship, but I'm pretty sure they've trained with each other. Nate's a regular at Tri-star. But yah Nate Marquardt is a very talented fighter. He had one bad fight against Chael in MW and dropped to WW. He's too good for SF.
Nate would be a very huge test. Even Anderson said that he's one of the best at 185.
Rory vs Condit
Rory vs Hendricks
Rory vs Fitch
Rory vs Kos just to shut em up once and for all.
Rory is a new an improved GSP in the making, simply because he has not been hurt badly in a fight so mentally he's very strong. He was willing to stand for the majority of the fight against Condit and BJ. But when he takes you down he's got some powerful GNP. GSP is very graceful with his takedowns and game implementation. Rory is there to put a hurt with a wide arsenal. Those Brazillian kicks were wicked! Ali shuffle...not so much.
I thought Rorys chin looked solid against Penn. he took a few hard shots.
