Lord, the fact that you've put Nog ahead of Fedor in ya list, when Fed defeated him twice when he was in his prime just goes to show how much you hate Fedor. Pathetic!!!

And GSP is scared to go up 1 weight class to fight Anderson. And Benson isn't scared at all to go up and fight GSP. Odd, isn't it?

I honestly don't think it is him being scared I think he sees the Silva fight as the ending of his career fight like the final blast. If he goes to fight anderson silva there is nothing left for him.
Why does GSP going up have any bearing on his domination of the most talented weight class in the history of the UFC? How many times has Fedor went up a weight class....oh wait, nope, he just fought guys that were down one or two weight classes and a bit heavier than him. My bad. Yeah he's so much better than GSP because of that.

I think you are right to some degree, Timing could be the biggest reason the fight never happens. Don't forget, GSP really thinks Weidman will win on July 6. Imagine if the 1st SF involving GSP is actually against Benson??? I'd laugh my a$$ Off !!

I agree. DW said that GSP was on board to fight Silva until he got injured. Since then I think he's been readjusting to the cage and hard training. Now he's resting. He's been either rehabbing or training for a fight for the last 2 years. Anything could happen in the next year.

I think that Hendricks is the last true contender at WW before someone has to fire off 3 wins in a row to re-enter title contention. I hope your mentality is correct; GSP is quickly heading down the same boring road Silva has been walking on for the last few years. All WW lacks is someone entitled with a mouth like Sonnen's to make the picture compete.

I think your way off in your' assessment of the potential in arguably deepest division in the UFC. GSP could easily finish his career staying put and never leaving WW

He's beaten everyone there is to beat in the division aside from Hendricks, possibly Ellenberger depending on how you see him. Again, barring a shining new star or an old contender getting hot, GSP will lack an attractive opponent outside of Hendricks.
Don't get me wrong, I think WW has a lot of talent but GSP has largely run through them all.
