That would fun. I'd also like to see GSP vs Silva but I don't think GSP has the balls to take that fight.

I think I'm the only person in the world that sees this but Griffin's punches land with what seems like very minimal impact. Am I crazy or does anyone else see what I'm seeing?

I'll have to watch it again. I'm honestly having trouble remembering him even landing anything of note.

I'm talking about his punches in every single fight he's ever been in.

No. It's well known that his punching power is one of his biggest weaknesses.

Yep, lucky for him that in his most infamous fight, Stephan Bonnar really couldn't land with a lot of force either. Still though, that fight was f'n GREAT. So fun to watch...

Why should he though? GSP is an average-sized ww who walks around at 187, Silva is a natural LHW. Just because BJ Penn's ego is bigger than the sun and he decided to move up so he could get his ass handed to him I don't see why that then sets the precedent that all champions are supposed to now move up in weight unless they are "afraid."

The jump for GSP to A. Silva is so much larger than the jump for BJ Penn to GSP. I want to see this fight, but I don't see how anyone can knock GSP for not rushing into it, he's only just cleaned out his division, how about facing Bisping or someone first?

Haha it's all good.

Anyone see the WEC event? That Torres fight was something else!

I'm not saying GSP has to rush into it but he will not face a challenge within his division. It's not happening. He can stay there and continue to mop up but if he want's a true challenge he will have to move up in weight.

Bisping? No thanks. That dude is so overrated it's not even funny. GSP would dominate him.

I guess I'm just tired of GSP running over everyone. I'm greedy. I want to see a superfight.
