Just saw a news article on the MSN homepage that Dana White is talking seriously about a catchweight bout between St. Pierre and Silva. Best fight ever?

Well blimey, hearing this for the umptienth time has just made me forget what a clusterfuck UFC151 was.

Empty promises.

P.R. stunt? I am now sad.

You gained nothing, you lost nothing. Cheer up.

In the future, you may wanna filter Dana F. White a little more.

Uh oh. We've heard these kind of remarks [ A.S vs GSP ] before.

He's probably trying to draw attention away from the recent cancellation fiasco.

Oh well, hope it happens. Would probably be the most technical fight ever seen in recent years.

I want to see Jones vs Silva. GSP hasn't got a chance. Besides, GSP was absent for too long from his weight dev' , it is not fair to let his first fight not be a belt defense. You need to give his weight category some hope for a championship bout.

In all seriousness, I'd rather this fight never happen. I don't want Silva to make GSP look mediocre. I'd much rather see Silva vs. Jones. Maybe Machida vs GSP.

dude, silva may be good but he is a fucking MIDGET compared to jones. gsp vs silva is a far more interesting fight imo.

**simonifrius** · Posted On: 9/05/2012 7:28am

Jones is 6'4"; Silva's 6'2". He's closer to Jones in height than most. Meanwhile, GSP is 5'10". So Silva makes him look like a midget.

Silva would tear him apart standing before he ever got close enough to go for a takedown. GSP's striking has gotten oddly stiff and robotic-looking since he started training with Freddie Roach, which would get him killed with Silva. Probably wouldn't be as interesting a fight as it used to look like.
