Bad News Matt Hughes
We're headed for a trilogy. Georges St. Pierre Dominated Matt Hughes during they're first meeting. His ground game and stand up are at least par with Matt's. The biggest difference is GSP is a much smarter fighter and can control every aspect of a fight. This time, he's like the terminator, he can't be stopped. It's time for a new champ and a new era and GSP is gonna kick it off. Canada will reign supreme

I been to Tijuana... Tourist areas are not really mexico.. they are set up to impress tourists.. go 5 miles or less from the resort and people are living in poverty.. no wonder they risk life and limb to sneak into the US we really do need a fence built..

If GSP is one of your favorite fighters thats cool but you should at least state facts. GSP was armbarred in the 1st round of their last fight and he did not dominate the ground game. He might this time but he did not the last time he was submitted.

one thing I noticed when people talk about past fights.. they talk as if only one of the fighters usually thier favorite one was the only practicing training and getting better since the previous meeting.. both fighters more then likely were doing such.. so both fighters were getting better more then likely so you can not go by saying well he's been working on this so it should be equal now.. its not like the other fighter has been frozen in time and not getting better

This is true. Most of the top fighters know the flaws in their own games and are working on them all the time. Some championship fights are kind of a joke (Arlovski/Buentello) and some can go either way (Hughes/GSP, Chuck/Babalu). The next couple of UFC cards are going to be interesting to watch.

The PPV's in the states are expensive I know - wasn't 61 like $60 or something crazy?
They get sent here free (the UK) so long as you have the right cable/digital package to get Bravo. You ever tried, aherm, viewing it on the net?
I have a child too, aged 6, who is fight obsessed. Not because we have ever let him watch it, he just loves doing judo and learning how to strike. We have shown him a few very selective clips, of good tactical ground matches, but I agree it's not for the eyes of little people.
