CPT wrote:Haven't seen the Varner/Cerrone fight since it happened, but if I remember correctly, Varner was clearly winning on the scorecards (I think Cerrone might have taken one round, making it 3-1), but Cerrone had some serious momentum and could have finished the fight if that knee was called legal (it certainly was when it was thrown...Varner dropped back down to make it illegal, or to prevent it from being thrown).
I would like to see them settle it, but I do think Varner is the better fighter.

Re: Perfect MMA Card?
I see alot of people jumped on board with my suggestion of having Hendo and GSP fight. IMO because of his wrestling and ability to step in the cage about 20 lbs bigger than weigh ins Hendo might have the best chance at beating GSP, any thoughts on how that fight might go?

I think Henderson is too big and too good a wrestler for GSP. IMO Hendo keeps the fight standing and knocks GSP out. Hendo is very possibly the worst matchup out there for GSP, style wise. A guy who is bigger, can neutralize his wrestling, and is a much better striker.

That's precisely why I would like to see GSP fight Hendo. Matchup wise its bad for GSP even if he gains 20lbs. Would be interesting to see how he can manage a victory over Dan with many things going against him. GSP/Silva is also compelling but I think GSP has a higher chance of victory with Silva than Hendo.
Edit. Not that im rooting against GSP, but i'd like to see him pushed to his limits which 170lbers cannot provide.

I think both Silva or Hendo would be great fights to watch. Though I would pick against GSP in both.

Re: Perfect MMA Card?
I wouldnt give GSP much of a chance against guys that are both physically stronger than him, and just as skilled as he is. No way do i see him beating Silva or Hendo. I dont really see him beating Marquadt either.
