There, I fixed it for you.

Only thing GSP has on BJ is superior wrestling.  BJ will kill GSP. 

If BJ is so superior to GSP, why was he not able to finish him after gouging his eyeball?  For two solid rounds, BJ wasn't able to do anything.  True, GSP could not finish him (BJ is awesome), but he did control him the entire time.  No one is going to "kill" anyone on this fight.  It's going to be a chess match with both fighters trying not to lose.  I doubt it will be exciting...

Training an hour a day for a fight will do that to you.  At BJ was attempting subs.  GSP sat in his guard, elbow to his knees and waited for the stand up only to shoot another double and repeat.

build has nothing to do with fighting,period.

nothing? 

then why do all the MMA's workout?  Of course being strong has a lot to do with it... harder punches, better submissions, ...

It was once said you can teach a man speed and technique, but you can't teach a man to be heavy handed. It's like a glass/iron jaw, you can't train it. Some have it, some don't.

if i recall i dont remember saying anything about strength,i said build.but ill still answer your quote,strength has nothing to do with submissions,its all leverage.knock out punches are more technique then power,ask cutler to punch a heavy bag and see if he hits its harder then bas rutten who only weighs 180,jays way stronger but cant hit nearly as hard as bas.mma workouts are designed to make the fighter more efficiant in fighting.

i still will never buy the fact that having strength plays no part in mma.  That's bogus.

typical highschool football philosophy = sherk...put on manufactured mass, muscle cardio workout yourself to death (so you won't tighten up and flame out fast) and try to win with attrition and impose yourself on smaller weaker guys. happens all the time in college football and high school. 

get in with a technical guy fundamentally sound with skills (not matter how he looks) and you'll get destroyed every time in there until you    get with the program and master an art other than weightlifting.
