No wrestler is comfortable on his back. I think that gsp looked scared too exchange on the feet the first two rounds then loosened up in the 3rd. Also which punch was lucky that knocked gsp out in the serra fight ? The first one or the ten other monster hooks that put him out. Serra is a top notch fighter and he'll prove it in do time. gsp said it perfectly "tonight i got beat by a better fighter" nuff said [/quote] You're right , GSP didn't strike much , he was too busy schooling Kos in wresting. GSP beat Kos in pretty much a wrestling match. Anyone who watched this fight and thinks Kos is the better wrestler, is living in denial.

UFC Heavyweight Champion Randy Couture, Gabriel Gonzaga, Georges St. Pierre, Josh Koscheck, Roger Huerta, Alberto Crane, Kendall Grove, Patrick Cote, Frank Mir and Antoni Hardonk were all clean for the August 25 pay-per-view (PPV) event from the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The NSAC is still waiting to hear word on results for "drugs of abuse," according to the report. This is good news for the UFC — as well as the sport of mixed martial arts — which took a beating after UFC Lightweight Champion Sean Sherk and his opponent at UFC 73: "Stacked," Hermes Franca, both tested positive for steroids following their championship bout. Franca owned up to the charge, while Sherk is still awaiting to appeal the finding before the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) sometime in October.

He fought a smart and cautious match. When GSP's mind is right, there's nobody that is better than him. His combination of stand-up, wrestling, and BJJ is amazing.

A friend of mine told me that he went to tour Matt Hamill's Training Center in Utica, NY and saw him training there. He is totally impressed by what he has seen. He was anti-Hamill and now is singing a different tune. It appears that Hamill has added more skill sets to his fighting style and is also fully aware of Bisping's infamous "flying knee." His stand up is looking even better as he is training with 3x national champion boxing Kimdu Bethel. Also is training with Ray Newkirk for BJJ skills. This is going to be quite interesting to see how much Matt Hamill has improved this time around.[/quote] Your havin a laugh! Im not a big bisping fan, but have no doubt in my mind he will dominate hamill.... dominate.[/quote] Yeah? we shall see then.

I wonder what was going through kos mind as gsp was dominating him where ever they went, standing or on the ground. I have to give kos credit though for his submission defense and his excellent guard and lasting all 3 rounds. [quote comment=”135799″]I think GSP is probably the best wrestler in all of MMA.[/quote]
