Prediction: correct St-Pierre   correct Decision  

Huh???  Uh oh.  Wolf?  Tell me you're a GSP man!  For God's sake's, Wolf!  You're scaring me!

I'm in shock.  My best friend on tapology is not a GSPman.  I'm old-school but I don't know if my heart can handle this.  This is almost as bad as being abandoned by Anik.  I'm a broken man.

However, none of those 11 wins came even close to being at GSP's level. Hope I'm wrong about my pick. Really want Diaz to get this.

@bispingthebest, 11 fight win streak??? So? Ryan Jimmo was on a 17 fight win streak, is he the GOAT? ... streaks are easy when you're not fighting the best of the best ... 

if you think streaks are the beeswax try this one on for size: 10 UFC title fights win streak ... guess who ... how does that compare to an 11 fight win streak against mediocre or old fighters?

Also, people talking about Nick's power....go back and watch the GSP/Serra fight, honestly Serra didn't really land any 100% punches right on the button really...GSP took a few glancing punches and was wobbly than a mofo...if Nick can put together some combos GSP is ******* going down, he has no heart..he tapped to strikes..you never come back from that.

Serra hit GSP on the temple in the perfect spot.  That's a fight-ender when you lose your equilibrium like that.  We've seen it happen tons of times. 

Swickotine is a huge Diaz fan and his loyalty and support is admirable.  But his analysis here is pretty poor.

@Swickotine I didn't even see that he was trying to tap the first time around **** that's disapointing.

Just like Shogun I didn't see him tapping the first time either but have watched that fight alot of times since then, I have never gone back and watched GSP's loss to Serra since it happend.

And really quick before someone probably brings it up...When Shogun tapped, he was getting a ruthless/tiring/bloody beating for 2 rounds. GSP got caught a few times, panicked and took the easy way out when he was mounted...he was never really unconscious at any point...he was getting lit up, but it's a bit different.

@Swick ... Judging by your analysis, you've never been hit on the temple by a high-level striker, nor have you been hit in a full-contact fight. I've had 29 full contact fights, and I can tell you first-hand, the temple shot takes everything out of your mind. GSP probably doesn't even remember the fight, never mind tapping. He wasn't even there at that point. My brother and I call that punch the champ killer, because you simply can't recovery from it, since, as Greg pointed out, it completely takes your balance away and all sense of direction.

Wolf I'd love to post the vid but I won't, I'm saving myself for after this fight.

We all know Nick's game plan now is reliant upon Georges making a mistake ( like anyone else) OR eye gouging or "fouling" him to the point that it would cost GSP the fight and his title! The mma oracle Bill Burgess has said it's so, and since he didn't get anyone's name wrong this time or anything like that, you know it's true!

@skelliher You are 100% right and do have a more-informed opinion on getting struck in the head. 

I'm speaking from an avid-watcher/fan's perspective..just my opinion... 

And in my opinion...GSP is a ***** ass ***** that tapped...WHAT!? STOCKTON!
