I could care less where it is, I'm just glad it's not in December

I bet Diaz is a slight crowd favorite when the bell rings in Vegas though

Yup, could care less where it is. I just hope Diaz brings out the fight in GSP... but really, it's likely a 5 round grapplefest...

Sure you do, otherwise you would not have mentioned it. You want it to be in Canada.

Huh, what are you even talking about? Mention what? I could care less if it's in Montreal, Toronto or Vancouver or Vegas, I'm not going to be able to attend the event either way.

GSP has fought tougher opponents I expect him to dominate Diaz for 5 rounds

^ What's that face for?

Fitch, Alves, Shields, Koscheck are all better than Diaz.

Diaz is going to spend 80% of this fight on his back, probably lose like a 50-44 decision, and then say GSP didn't fight him.

I love watching Diaz fight, but he's going to get exposed here.

For the "I expect GSP to dominate him for 5 rds." More like lay and pray for 5 rds.

Potato, potahto.

If GSP is able to do what he wants to do for 5 rounds and stop Diaz from doing what he wants to do, I'd call that domination.

That's not the point I'm making. But it's okay because you are in Canada, and GSP is a god and if we say different we all go to hell.
