|  Florian vs GSP
What do you think guys on this fight. I like Kenny a lot and think he is a great fighter but GSP has been impressing me a lot.

this is a little lopsided imo. florian is a great fighter and has a good skill set, but gsp is so much bigger and stronger. i think gsp just takes him down and gnp's him out in the 2nd round.
i mean look at what sherk and diego did to him, and i dont think eithor of them are as powerful as gsp. florian has improved his strengh, but theres nothing he can do to stop gsp from taking him down.
im not trying to nut hug thats just how i see it.

Im a big fan of both fighters, so I'd say GSP takes this Sub Rd1, just because of his size advantage. He'd grapple Kenny into giving up his back or work him over for An armbar.
If Kenny did win though, it'd be stopped from cuts Rd2. 'Bows from the bottom.

Kenny has pretty much no chance in this fight. GSP drops him standing and finishes it off. Mid first round.
GSP is much bigger, stronger, imo faster.
Kenny can cut GSP but he isnt gonna finish it on a cut.
I am starting to get the feeling people are over rating Kenny and starting to under rate GSP.
Look what Diego did to him, sure Kenny has gotten better but GSP would do the same thing but make it look worse.
This has nothing against Kenny, its just he is to small and way out matched against a much better fighter.

anytime people say Kenny Florian can beat a top guy, i always just flash back to watching him fight Diego and get fucked up. he's come a long way since then. but damn.
GSP would finish Kenny in 2 rounds.

i'd have to take GSP here but it would be a good ground fight. GSP beat KOS, kenflo lost to diego. kenflo switched classes...so who wins here? would kenflo return to WW or would GSP move down to LW? good match with sound fighters.

gsp couldn't move down to 155 unless he cut off his leg.
gsp would make florian look like a fool at 170 just because he has like 20-30 pounds on him and is faster, stronger, better at everything (except pure bjj) but no way in hell can florian sub gsp because he will be eating punches like nobodies business..
i like kenflo and at 155 he is a contender.. but at 170 he is undersized and doomed.. this fight is a huge mismatch.
