The only reason GSP hesitated in his goodbye speach after being gifted a win is because Rory lost that night, it's so painfully obvious!

Rory is gonna get a no.1 contender match vs somebody (maybe Nick? He's the only one that makes sense if he comes back if not then maybe Matt Brown but I don't think he desrves to jump ahead of 3-4 people)
Winner of that gets the winner of the NEXT title shot for the winner Condit/Woodley vs the champ

So I guess the Diaz brothers want to f--- Gil Melendez too, and team Alpha Male are all just a bunch of gay guys. Every training team would wish for their guy to get the next title shot. GSP does it and a bunch of slurs come out. I hope Junkie has some standards and gets rid of morons like this that just fell off the YouTube bus. ^^

Edit - last comment, WAY too distasteful and critical!
GSP is the welterweight GOAT and has adapted, probably better than any other fighter, to the ever evolving MMA culture and standards, with consideration to his longevity in the sport. His MMA IQ tops the charts. And his uncanny ability to discern his opponents weaknesses and adapt mid-fight is phenomenal.
Enjoy the fruits of your labor and live in the moment. We all want you to return and continue to push the bar to new heights!

Be interesting if Rory captured the belt in a year or twos time. Would probably force GSP to change weight classes if he decided to come back at that time.

Not that I think Nick is coming back, but how does a 2 fight losing streak place him 3anywhere near the title?

Such an interesting situation, lots of questions that UFC 171 will answer. It's Condit's shot to lose. Otherwise it's Rory's, unless Robbie wins. Then Rory doesn't deserve that quick of a rematch. So many weird situations, if Condit loses and Robbie wins, is it the winner of Lombard vs Shields?

I think the next contender depends, in large part, on who wins the belt. If Johny, then Rory is the likely contender. If Lawler, my guess would be Condit (if he wins).

I don't think Rory has looked too impressive in his last 3 fights. H lost to Lawler, he beat Maia but if Maia didn't gas I don't think he would've looked so great. I think who ever looks most impressive in their win at UFC 171 would get the shot. I think any of the 4 with an impressive win will be more deserving.

That's a silly way to look at it, Maia DID gas and Rory DID look good, so if's don't really matter.

I dont think Rory looked that good, he got dominated on the ground until Maia gassed and sure he then controlled Maia with his standup but it wasnt that effective and or exciting.
Rory has not looked good since the BJ fight and he is definitely not deserving of a title shot.

I don't think he got dominated, I thought Rory did great, stayed calm played it smart and got out of a TERRIBLE position
