I'm gonna go with GSP by TKO in the first. I also think he'll abuse Fitch. GSP seems to really put it into another gear when people talk trash pre-fight.

I am really confident that GSP is gonna win this fight and I believe it will be by some brutal GnP.....

Jenkins83 · 04-15-2008, 10:42 PM

I don't think this fight will make it past the first round. GSP by brutal ground and pound. Then we will get GSP/Fitch which is a fight I'm really looking forward to seeing.

agreed.

GSP is such a likable guy, and now Serra gone and pissed him off.... ooooh boy.

Serra has really aggravated me since he won that title. Walking and talking like hes unstoppable. I miss the calm and collected "well see once i get in the ring" kinda talk. Not this "F YOU FRENCHY IMA BAD MOTHA".

Lets go Frenchy lets go.

Beazt · 04-16-2008, 11:46 AM

This is one of those matches that one can really eat crow on.

Is GSP being pissed a benefit to his training or fighting style?
I hope he doesn't attack with so much aggression that he leaves himself open.

We know that Serra has some serious hands. If GSP isn't careful he will be ko'd again.

I do believe GSP will win, but I'm not going to say he'll destroy Serra.
Don't be surprised if this match is a close one lasting 3+ rounds.

StrikeHARD · 04-16-2008, 12:52 PM

I'm not going to rubbish Serra's victory in their first fight - I don't believe in "lucky punches", he caught GSP with a shot and caplitalized. This being said, I am fully expecting GSP to come out and avenge his loss. I say GSP by TKO in the 2nd.

Drew Shayze · 04-16-2008, 01:40 PM

I actually think it's going to take a while for GSP to put away Serra, probably in the 4th when Serra is completely spent (Which is usually around the third round). Serra has really good defense, can take a good punch and is really tough. Who knows, though, GSP has been awesome ever since getting his brains bashed in.

MTKrav911 · 04-16-2008, 05:01 PM

Serra by KO Round 2.

Great Countdown show BTW.

"Me beating George St . Pierre last year is like a kid playing little league and suddenly he's on the Yankees!"

- Matt Serra

"You can take some time to get to the top. Alot of time. But you can fall very very quickly once on the top!"

- George St. Pierre

I think both men are very focussed and ready for this fight both wanting to prove something.

Unfortunately for GSP, statistics are that if you were KTFO once by a guy? More than likely you'll get KTFO again by that same guy in a rematch.

Numbers don't lie.

ChipShank · 04-16-2008, 05:34 PM

I'm pulling for GSP, as I just do not care at all for Serra or his attitude.
I don't however think that GSP being "pissed" is really his key to winning. With his sh*t in order, honestly GSP should beat Serra more times than not. But that said, I see GSP winning, but I don't see him coming in and taking Serra out quickly and handily by any means. I don't like Serra, but he is one tough little bugger, I will give him that and then some.
I think that Georges will take it this time & honestly think that he should have last time. Yeah....Serra did beat the bejeezus outta him for sure, but GSP just seemed way too cautious and tentative last time out, much like his first go round with Hughes. He fought tight & got tagged for it. This time, even though he's the favorite again and is fighting in front of his home crowd...I really think that he's honestly got nothing to lose, so he should be more relaxed and hopefully on his game.

For all Serra & Company's bravado & sh*t talking about GSP mental state....I actually think that GSP is in their heads more than Serra is in GSP's. Mainly due to the fact that they are all constantly harping on how Georges is mentally weak & a sore loser and are sure that he is going to collapse in front of his home crowd...to me just shows that they are unable to let go of his comments after that first fight. It shows that it struck a pretty strong nerve with them. I'm sure that some where deep down, Serra & Co. know that he was (and is) the underdog for a reason and feel compelled to keep reiterating their claim that GSP is mentally weak....a "metal midget"....Hoping that it will have some real effect on him.

Reading and hearing Georges comments about what was going on with him before that fight, I personally don't think that actually fighting Serra was GSP's problem last time out...not discounting Serra's abilities or diminishing his win...just saying that I wouldn't be surprised to see a more GSP vs. Sherk outcome (though perhaps not as quickly) this time out. Because with his personal sh*t in order, I don't really think that the threat of another Serra KO is going to make Georges lose too much sleep or collapse under the pressure, in front of the home crowd. And to be honest...I sincerely hope that Serra & Co. are not naive enough to believe that.

I respect people's opinions, but as fighters are supposed to be IMO? I don't think personal issues should ever be an excuse. If your personal issues were so bad? Why didnt we hear about them until AFTER a 10 to 1 underdog KTFO of you?

That's why I understand Serra. Serra said ont he Countdown show "We were respectful to each other after the fight and before. It wasnt until after I won that I heard all these excuses come out and that's why I flipped and screw him I'm not gonna apologize. He should apologize to me for making so many excuses".

I really hate excuses, esp after the fact. If it were before the fight and GSP said he couldnt fight because of personal issues? Of course I'd be all out in support of him to get his head straight.

But again, when a freakin 10 to 1 underdog basically Knocks You The Hell Out in front of 20,000 people?

THEN you say "Oh my head wasnt there, my cousin got killed, my dad was sick, etc."? I mean God Bless ya, but why didnt you pull out the fight beforehand? I'd respect you more GSp if you simply said what I KNOW really happened. You thought Serra was gonna be easy so you didnt do what you had to.

That's kinda nonsense in my opinion.

I agree with that, excuses are lame.

ChipShank · 04-16-2008, 07:13 PM

MTKrav911, Yeah...I totally get where you're coming from. Whether it's GSP, Tim Sylvia, Shogun, Penn, Lutter...whomever...a loss in the ring is a loss. No question. Excuses after the fact don't change the statistics. And yeah...if the fighter was that off his game going into it...they should pull out.
But then again, they ARE kind of damned if they do/damned if they don't. Pulling out of a fight for anything less than being completely laid up is commonly complete "flame job" material (Lutter's comments on Franklin's pulling out of the Dec fight)....but going in half-cocked, is not much better.

By the same token, GSP is prodded for answers as to why he lost, says what is/was going through his mind and life and how it related to his prefight training & now somehow he's a whiney-bitch for admitting that he underestimated Serra and wasn't properly prepared. Serra constantly touts his underdog status & then is thin skinned enough to be that effected by someone agreeing with him. LOL

I mean seriously, before the KO...who honestly had Serra on their top 10 WW list? Top 20?
Honestly...no BS.
Yes, he is tough...Yes, at these upper levels any fighter can be dangerous on any given day...Yes, he had the proverbial puncher's chance always...But besides decisioning Shonie & then Lytle in the TUF series, where was he & what had he done in the prior few years? He really was not on the active WW radar prior to that "Comeback Season".
Without the TUF opportunity, I'd dare say that there was no way in hell, that Serra works his way up THROUGH the UFC WW ranks and earns a title shot. So from that stance, it's not totally ridiculous for GSP to have taken him a little bit lightly. Not smart...but not totally without base either.
The thing that I just don't get, is that Serra & others go on about how insulting those comments were...But really Georges' comments about taking Serra lightly are more insulting to himself, than to Serra. He's admitting that he trained poorly and was not on his game enough to realize what a real threat Serra was/is...and he's a dick for admitting that? That's more of a knock against himself, than against Serra. Admitting that he was short sighted enough to buy into his own hype-machine...That's actually a pretty big thing to admit, I would think.
Again, I ain't trying to stick my head so far up GSP's a**, that I can't see reality....but I just think that Serra's constant over reaction to those comments is more insulting that what Georges actually said. More "Mental Midget-esque" so to speak.

And honestly...what fighter ever says...."Well, I had a sh*tty training camp....my knee is a little f**ked....& a close relative died....but ya know, I'm just gonna go in there & try and see what happens". LOL J/K
But seriously...isn't it more p*ssy-ish to make a butt load of excuses first? Just in case you end up losing.
