|  GSP fighting at UFC 65?
They ahve GSP rumour to be fighting again at UFC 65...but it is against TBA....so does that mena he has to work his way top a title shot again...I for one would not liek that, I want him to ahve the shot...I don't think they would have him fight hughes or penn at 65 because they alreayd have number of big fights
or is GSP gonna now have to wait until after The TUF 4 winner gets his shot..here is the lnk, tell me what you guys think http://www.mmaweekly.com/absolutenm/...2299&zoneid=14

If He Has To Work His Way Back Up That Is Bullshit!!! I Hated When It Happened To Karo But I Dont Think Gsp Will Go Out Like That!! He'l Get It Back And Win!!

I wish I could tell you when/where that was, but damn, I just don’t remember.
I’m guessing that they aren’t going to have Hughes defend his belt again after only two months.
If the rumor is true and GSP is fighting on the 65 card, then he’s probably doing a Chuck and just wants to stay actively fighting despite the risk to his #2 status.

well if he is not fighting for the title, does that leave the door open possibly for deigo VS GSP...casue I don't know anyone else you would have him fight that would be a legite opponent other than a title shot

i have a feeling he's gonna be fighting diego sanchez before hughes after the title talk after beating karo. i want to see gsp fight, but not until he fights hughes, then they can put him against whoever they want.

The UFC was probably planning the winner of Hughes/GSP to fight the TUF winner, so now that GSP is out and Penn is in, it should be interesting.
I like some of the guys on TUF but to guaranty a title shot could bite them in the ass. When you consider that Hughes probably has a mandatory rematch clause in his contract (should he lose). Penn, GSP, Diego. Thats a lot of title fights for one division. Then again, better to have to much talent then to little.

I don't think he'll have to climb back up. I thought that happened to Karo because he was out for so long after his injury.

It probably says TBA because he is gonna fight the winner of Penn/Hughes.

|  GSP vs Diego
I think he will face Diego. Is there anyone other top contender it could be?? I figure Hughes and Penn are going to fight later this month @ 63, so they will get some time off. And the winner of the GSP match will fight for the title @ 67,68 vs hughes or penn.
