Yeah Saunders could put Fitch's lights smooth out, but more likely he's just going to get taken down and Fitched.

Probably so, but I don't feel confident enough to drop money on Fitch at ~350. Killa B's kind of a wildcard right now. I think it's hard to predict how he's going to do in his next few fights. He's in that period of his career where he appears to have a lot of potential and he's about to either prove it, or settle into being a B level fighter.

I noticed that. I also saw that Carwin is up to +140 on Bodog.

Ive been watching all the countdown shows, reading inverviews and what not, and Im curious.

When did Dan Hardy become Mike Tyson with his punching power all the sudden?

He couldnt KO Gono, Swick, or Marcus Davis, so why all the sudden to people think if he can land one shot on GSP, he could win?

I dont think it will matter even if he "catches" GSP with a couple big punches. GSP via whatever.

Obviously the Serra fight is, and will always be, in everyone's mind.

Beyond that, he does have 3 KOs on his record as well as a number of TKOs.

I think Hardy has as good a chance of knocking GSP out as anyone else in the division, excluding Daley.

I think zY said it best. That Serra fight created a fuckin monster.

My guy is being a pussy, so Im probably gonna lay -600 on GSP.

side note: I read that Lesnar will be cageside for the Murr/Carwin fight. That shit has WWE promo written all over it if Murr wins.

Monster up in this motherfucker!

Everyone keeps saying that, and I'm sure it helped him rededicate himself to training, but the fact of the matter is that the Serra fight proved that GSP is anatomically of the sort to where if he takes a hard shot then he can at least be TKOd. Maybe not go all the way out. But be dazed enough to not be able to defend himself properly.

You can't fix that. It's like Keith Jardine his apparently tendency to go to sleep after getting hit just right. It's just the way your body reacts.

Good luck. I'm still thinking of working him into a parlay somehow.

I know I don't want $20 bad enough to risk $120 to get it, though.

Cmon, stop it. "Anatomically of the sort where if he takes a hard shot he can be TKOd" What, you mean he's a human being?

EVERYONE can be knocked out. If anything that fight proves it. It doesn't prove that he has a "weak chin" or any other Sherdog myths. Just because you've never seen Anderson Silva get hurt with a punch doesn't mean it's impossible. GSP got hit behind the ear in the perfect spot and lost his equilibrium. It's not like that's the only power shot he's ever taken. He's taken plenty and and generally shrugs them right off, and from guys with supposedly "heavy hands". (BJ, Alves) Serra also hit him on the chin about 50 thousand more times and he never went out.

Keith Jardine gets slept frequently because of technical deficiencies and leaving his chin up in the air with his hands down. I wouldn't say he really has that poor of a chin. It's his defense that's godawful. He took huge bombs from Rampage and never went out.

So could Hardy hurt him with a punch, swarm on him, and win?

Of course. He's got enough power to hurt anyone. Is it likely? Extremely unlikely.

You know as well as I do that there are fighters out there who just don't go out. Does that mean that they couldn't be knocked out by a cinderblock? No. But you know what I mean.

As for GSP getting hit with hard shots, I really don't feel like he has been hit that much. I can't remember ever seeing him take a shot where I was like, "OHHHH!!! FUCK!!!!!!! I can't believe he's still conscious after that!"
