There was a marked improvement in GSP's strength on the ground.
I just don't know if that alone is enough. Serra is coming off a bad injury, but we also don't know what Serra is up to. We know Serra has a chip on his shoulder and will come to fight.
It's who's hungrier IMO for this one.
I kinda have the feelig that Serra is being treated like Apollo Creed after Rocky I
"Man I won, but I didnt beat him"
Even though Serra KTFO of GSP
It's gotta suck for Serra the last 10 months or so.

The back injury could be key. Once you experience something like that you have to change alot of your training to account for that. I don't think anyone outside of Serra's camp really knows the extent of that injuries effect on Serra. We all know what going on with GSP since he's the one getting all the attention from the media. Maybe Serra vs. GSP 1 was like Tyson/Douglas? No one expected that and afterwards Douglas went back to being what he always was. This fight is going to prove alot about both men.
