Anyone planning on watching this tonight?
I am not the biggest UFC guy, but this is probably the biggest fight of the year. I think Condit might take it.
I wish to wash my Irish wristwatch......

I haven't watched forever, but may watch this fight - love watching GSP fight. He and Anderson Silva are my two fav fighters.

The local b-dubs doesn't even show them that much. The last few pay per views, they havn't shown them. I wonder if they don't have the fan support anymore.
This one is a toss-up. Gsp hasn't fought in 18 months. I think Gsp wins in a boring 5 rd fight.

Bars have to pay a huge premium so if they aren't making a profit then why bother. I like the UFC, but I can't afford to buy a PPV every month.
I also agree with the toss up due to GSP having ring rust. If GSP had been healthy and fighting the last 18 months I would only give Condit the Matt Serra chance.

I use to work for a restaurant that had them every month. We had a decent size place, and it only cost us 400 each pay per view. We always did 2-3k more for a given saturday night. So it was well worth it to get them. That was 4 years ago. Not sure if prices have gone up, or interest has waned.

The hit or title fight?
The hit: Hendricks just caught the guy (forget his name) right on the chin... immediately out cold... in the first round
Title fight is about to go

Kampmann is the guys name, pretty fair fighter. I meant the Championship Fight. I didn't realize it hasn't happened yet.

Condit looks tired so far in round two - GSP with big take down that was too easy.

GSP is taking a lot of elbows to the head while grapling... this round could go either way... maybe GSP's for two take downs, but Condit with that huge head kick and has defended well on his back.

round 4 a lil slower so far but GSP another take down... really seems to be able to take Condit down whenever he wants.

Condit prety close to getting I think an arm bar... but I would guess they are pretty slippery!

Condit looks gased - GSP with another take down - I'd guess he'd stay in top position and finish this out...

Hopefully them 2 could make this official tonight. Silva vs Gsp that is. White needs to build off this, what was a lousy year for the Ufc.

Condit has to feel awful though if he loses - I thought for sure that head kick in the 3rd was going to win it for him... but GSP recovered pretty quickly.

Unanimous... GSP wins... two judges had him winning every round.. one judge had him winning 4/5.

Jones/Silva would be WAY better
"It has to start somewhere
It has to start somehow
What better place than here?
What better time than now?"

I have never seen Silva lose. I think he would beat Gsp, unless he gets him to the ground like Sonnen did. Jones/Silva, I have no idea. Jones, looks so unbeatable, but Silva has destroyed everyone in the ufc for 6 years now. I just want to see one of those fights to be honest. Get it done White.

I believe Jones and Silva would be a much better fight than Silva and GSP. I don't think GSP could carry that weight and perform at the same level.
