I hope BJ comes in on top of his game! However I dont think that will happen, I don't think BJ performs to well when he is this heavy.. However he has known about the fight and still has some time.. I would love to see him KO GSP!

how machida is nr 9 in the p4p list and the only LH one there while he's only 3 in the LH list is beyond me.
Sylvia is ranked too high,.. should be 9 or 10

Well you can't have the champ at #3 or the guy who lost the belt. I think that is the train of thought there.. I guess they think Machida is the new champ waiting on his turn.

Unfortuately I think you're right. I also have reservations about his conditioning at times. That's a worry I just don't have with GSP.

Yeah I don't think GSP will have anything to worry about as this is his weight. BJ is adding pounds and needs to do it healthy and not just extra fat. That for a guy his size can be hard and we all know how BJ usually shows up with the extra weight. I just hope it is differant this time around.

He looked great at his last fight His trainer who has been workign with him (not sure if he still does) is Tony Aponte and he got BJ is great physical condition.
