I'm Not A GSP Fan

I admit it...

I'm not a GSP fan. 

He's just not one of my favorite fighters. However:

I do totally respect the man's talent, athletic condition, and overall fighting abilities.

His humility after winning over Condit last week blew me away. Georges St. Pierre seems like a genuinely nice guy, doesn't he?

This is one of the main reasons I don't look forward to watching Anderson Silva pummel him in their upcoming and much-hyped "Superfight". I just don't see how GSP is going to step his game up enough to really push Silva, nor do I expect the welterweight champ to weather the storm of punches and knees "The Spider" will surely unleash against him.

I could be wrong. It's always cool to watch the smaller man overcome his larger opponent.

I'll have more to say once I've given it some real thought. For now, check out my first article on the subject:

GSP vs. Anderson Silva Could Happen May 2013

Once I have an in-depth review and/or a couple of videos I'll add the links to this blog.

MMA BLog - Take One

Every blog, book, article, etc begins with a quick session at the keyboard, and this post marks the start of what I hope will be a fun and productive stretch of blogging and writing about a sport I love. I'm not going to try to compete with any other MMA blog or news site - it's never a good idea to go for a "me too" approach on the Web; instead,, I'm just going to be myself and blog about the aspects of the game I feel like touching on.

Personal commentary on past or upcoming fights, maybe a joke or two, and where possible some links to interviews I conduct with fighters and trainers active in the sport are examples of what will likely end up on this Web log. I'll also be running a more robust MMA Blog on my own hosting account, plus putting up You Tube videos from time to time.

Onward and upward, and thanks for visiting. ;o)
