Anything can happen, but if Daley couldn't do it, I'm not sure GSP can. We'll see.
Countdown show is tonight on Fuel TV.

I'm finding it hard to get excited for this fight, all i see is GSP grapple f ucking Diaz for 5 rounds. GSP will have no problem getting takedowns.
Diaz has done his best with trying to get GSP that angry, that he actually might come to stand and trade but i can't see it working. GSP has become a winning machine who dosen't care about finishing fights, all that matters to him is winning and that is why i see him playing it safe vs Diaz which would result to a boring fight.
I hope Diaz catches him with a submission but my prediction is 50-45 GSP.

My prediction is Diaz by TKO or KO. I have nothing against GSP nor do I think he can't win, I'm just thinking what a perfect ending for Diaz.

Diaz no-showed the open workout. Go figure.

Supposedly he got to Montreal late. Eh, oh well. Never saw the point of open workouts. MMA or boxing.

Pretty epic press conference. They showed it on Sportsnet here, which they usually do for GSP fights. Didn't even know Marquardt/Ellenberger were there until the staredown, lol.

At the presser, did Nick Diaz say he did a 'little more' marijuana this time than he did in his last fight, or did he mean he took a 'little more' precaution this time around?

Meaning he still smoked, but I'm sure took something to clean it out of his system.

Georges St-Pierre (c) Vs Nick Diaz - Unanimous Decision
Carlos Condit Vs Johnny Hendricks - Second Round TKO
Jake Ellenberger Vs Nate Marquardt - Unanimous Decision
Nick Ring Vs Chris Camozzi - First Round KO
Mike Ricci Vs Colin Fletcher - Unanimous Decision
I doubt GSP loses his cool and gives Diaz the fight he wants, but Georges is seriously gotten too. Hopefully the fight delivers.

During the weigh-in broadcast on Sportsnet here in Canada, Showdown Joe & Mark Hominick noted a surprising number of boo's for GSP and cheers for Nick Diaz. Thought that was kind of interesting.

I'm getting really pumped-up for this. ;D
For the good of the division, I hope:
- Hendricks scores an impressive (preferably KO) win over Condit
- there's a clear-cut winner between GSP and Diaz (I'm dreading another controversial Condit/Diaz type decision...)

Dana just said Ronda Rousey and the winner of some other woman fight will be captains of the next Ultimate Fighter.

Hendricks is a legit threat to GSP? Good showing here.

Condit won on the feet, Hendricks kept taking him down, but he didn't do anything with his position. I'm tempted to give to it Condit even though Hendricks controlled where the fight went, he just did more. And he had Hendricks back peddling more and more as the fight went on.
I can see a case for either winning, but I'd give it to Condit.
