Long Awaited Hughes vs St.Pierre
This one is long overdue. Saturday 9/23/06 in Aneheim CA.

I really think St. Pierre is gonna nail it this time around.

Hopefully George has worked on his counters for avoiding takedowns. I think this will be the key to beating Hughes.

Right on. I really like his stand up and I hope he knocks him out but a submission or ground 'n pound will do also. Either way.... I wanna see Hughes go down HARD.

I don't have a favorite but Hughes weaknesses in the past have been his submission ie hallman&Penn so GSP best chance imo is to sub him

I think this fight may go down a lot like GSP/Trigg, only not that dominant. GSP by ref stoppage RD 3.

Hughes by KO slam......alright, probably not. I see it going to decision and I'm pulling for Hughes.

I'm huge fan of hughes, but if anyone deserves the title its definately GSP. The humility and fighting prowess of GSP is just amazing. I hope he wins, honestly.

I do not care who wins. All I want is an exciting fight with both fighters displaying the excellent level of skill possessed by both.
 


size is a fictitious character.

The UFC REALLY needs to start mareting the WW division more heavily. They have the best WWs in the world by far, but they take a back seat to other divisions. Between Hughes, GSP, Penn, Karo, and Diego, there are many great fights waiting to happen.

If anyone deserves to win this fight it's GSP but i'm not convinced he can pull it off... In their last fight GSP had Hughes in a tight rear naked choke and couldn't finish Hughes off... I have a feeling that it will end like the first time.

This could go either way, but I have to admit I'm pulling for GSP. He is one of the best fighters to watch in all of MMA. Great attitude, too...although the same can be said for Hughes, from what I've seen/heard. They actually seem to be friends. I saw them on some DVD extras chatting like pals about how GSP knew he'd school Trigg after watching Trigg vs Hughes.

Without a doubt.
