my man gsp
nice bruno
wow he almost finished him like 4 times in that fight.
GSP my man whos next?
two warriors, best fight i have seen in a while. gsp, best sportsmanship of any fighter anywhere.
I live 40min south of the south shore of Montreal, George is the man, makes me proud to be from this area.
jon fitch is a monster.. he got pretty good jaw.. lookin forward to see GSP vs BJP
Penn entering the octagon post fight was no class….GSP had no mic time to thank his trainers and coaches etc.
GSP replied by saying he would fight anyone that deserved it….USA fans booood Penn…
Thanks for this site!!!
BJ Penn is the next logical opponent for GSP, however, BJ should not look past Kenny Florian as Dana White has stated before that the winner of the Huerta-Florian bout will have the next shot for the lightweight title. After BJ beats Florian he’ll have no one else to fight but GSP. My money is on BJ to hold both belts.
Completely agree with tone.
It’s rare for me to thoroughly enjoy a fight that goes to the decision, but this was one hell of an exception. Possibly my favourite fight since Coutre vs Silvia.
Damn is Fitch one tough mofo!
It’s amazing how GSP dominates all of these world class wrestlers on the ground. I think when they feel his strength & can’t handle his athleticism they are just broken down mentally. To beat GSP, you have to back him up with hard jabs & punches like Serra did. If GSP comes forward, he will win.
i loved this fight, im happy they both got fight of the night bonuses especially fitch who fought his heart out. im sure a lot of other WWs would have quit after being knocked down like 4 times and having that much punishment put on them. gsp just seemed way too fast, his attack way to diverse for fitch; he really lived up to the label of “the complete fighter”
I miss pride!! If the ufc allowed soccer kicks fitch would have been tko d in the 1st if not second round. Lots of heart though, who thought he would go all 5?
Blame Canada.!!
way classy
way good
best fight i seen in awhile
the respect and class these fights show is amazing
too notch
I still hate BJ PENN…..lol but GSP is my dude you can’t hate on him at all….Fitch is a brawler wrestler and GSP is all of the above….BJ Penn is fat and old and he’ll need more than good flexibility to get at GSP…
just my two cents
Man, I thought that fitch would break gsp’s glass jaw, but wow, gsp’s incredible. I take back what I said and jump on the bandwagon too! lol “lets do it!” Bj looks pudgy, he’s probably went back to his old training regiment of eating surfing and drinking beer. That’s going to be a banger too, but lets hope bj comes in good shape, because this went the distance. Either way fitch could take a beating, I’ve never seen someone get rocked that many times and still fight He has heart, good fight and thanks admin for the vid.
yeah your right the best sportmanship ever and dont forget Angerson Silva and Fedor to!!!!GSP #1
You’re the man Bruno. This fight was awesome, Fitch if tough as nails. Great performance by GSP, tho I don’t care for how he chose to end the last rough. Safe, but boring. Fitch’s panic attack would have been scary.
Fadadg, soccer kicks are banned due to their high potential to cause career ending injuries. And if a fighter like GSP were to soccer kick Fitch we would be without one less great fighter. I didn’t doubt that it went 5, if someone can do against GSP it would be him. He did go through hell to do it though. GSP slugged him enough times to knock out 5 fighters. Oh yeah, you’re an idiot.
St.pierre is a credit to this sport. He makes a great ambassador for mma.He is gracious in winning and he is gracious in losing.He shows great respect for his opponents.And he is only 27 yrs old.His maturity showed at the end of the fight,unlike the ending to the Herring Lesnar fight.
did anyone notice the lack of afflictions shirts?? did dana ban the fighters from wearing them?
this is one hell of a fight… gsp was dominating him but fitch wont just go down… Despite all those beating he took .. he could still get up .. props to those 2!!
Awesome fight. You can see why Jon Fitch is rated no.2. What a tough dude!
I agree with the other fans that a rematch against BJ Penn would be great. BJ busted George up pretty badly in their last fight. No one has ever done that, even if he was outclassed overall. Anderson Silver has all of GSP’s skills and hits just as hard.
Two great fights and thanks MMA TKO and Daily Motion.
gsp:
great sportsmanship
great athlete
great complete mma fighter
It would be nice to see Peen and GSP defend their titles on the same night, since Penn vs Kflo won’t can’t be a headliner for obvious reason.
It would be awesome to see Penn/Florian and GSP/ Alves on the same night, and if they both defend, we all know what will lay ahead!
I agree with pretty much everything you guys have said so far. GSP is phenomenal, he appears to be getting better every time he fights which is amazing.
Kudos to Fitch, he is a freaking warrior but this fight basically went exactly as I expected (except for it going the distance).
Now to be nit picky here, how in the world did two judges manage to give Fitch a a single round in this fight? GSP dominated beginning to end taking it easy in the second round. But in that round he stuck a stiff jab into Fitch’s face non stop and Fitch managed nothing.
Either way BJ Penn is going to lose to GSP again, I don’t care what kind of shape he shows up in. Penn is a monster no doubt, but GSP is his kryptonite and he will destroy him.
gsp is my fave welterweight, glad he won. but watching fitch lasting til the end. shows he got one of the biggest heart in ufc. he may not left the champion. but he left with a heart of a champion. horrible how they didn’t let gsp have his final words. the guy give a lot to the sport and he deserves more respect
is it just me or does Joe Rogan seem to be pissed off GSP won ?
i know this may never happen, but imagine have anderson silva vs gsp. that fight would make me soil myself. i would imagine anderson silva winning by tko though, i think hes too strong and too technically advanced for gsp’s wrestling and speed.
bad idea for penn hes gonna get pounded on
My heart was racing this entire fight, WOW. I think GSP should fight the winner of Sanchez, Alves, and BJ should fight Florian. If both GSP and BJ can win then they should fight each other. Just my thoughts anyway.
GSP staked his claim to the #1 spot last night … if he’s not the best pound for pound he’s very , very close and at 27 the sky is the limit. I don’t know if it’s all the weed I smoked as a teen but don’t I remember GSP lifting BJ across the octagon and slamming him on his ass … St. Pierre beats Penn in any rematch. He’s improved alot since that fight and he continues to get better. The most well rounded fighter in the sport.
I was hoping GSP would call out Anderson Silva after the match but then Penn stepped into the ring and ruined everything.
GSP is one in a million.
Love how Fitch escapes the mount end of first round.
Great fight, thx MMATKO!
BJ Penn came in the ring and spoke aggressively… Is he jealous or a little bit scared?
Penn needs a voice transplant, GSP will smash him for good this time.
Yea, I like BJ Penn, but that was a classless move at the end there. He should have let the champ give his shout outs and stayed the F out of the ring… but apparently, Dana White WANTED him to be there, otherwise, how did BJ get in the ring and onto the mic?
At either rate, its going to be a good fight… and I fully expect Rush to beat him….AGAIN.
I can’t wait for a GSP vs Penn II. This is a hard fight to pick, you cannot count out either fighters. The way both fighters have improved from their first match up, their second fight should go down in history as one of the best fights in MMA history. This fight will be a war for sure, it will not be a one sided victory, that’s for sure.
I just don’t like the fact that he is a FRENCH Canadian,LOL.
Am I the only one thinking this? We already saw Penn/GSP!!! I want GSP/Silva!!!
GSP is huge, he can easily fight at 185…make it HAPPEN!!!!!
That if it happened would be the biggest PPV ever, not even close.
I wanna see it.
PS: Fitch u get a ton of respect. 9 out 10 guys were getting TKO’d about 5 different times
Give GSP a f*cking chance to thank his team, trainers, camp, and give his shots out! WTF was that? Total disrespect of the champ that just gave MMA fans 25 minutes of world class fighting. Sad.
Awesome showing by my man GSP what a sick spinning back fist in rd 5
penn florian and GSP thiago needs to happen first!
i want gsp
Niv — your math is off — 50 points means he won every round. All 3 judges gave all 5 rounds to GSP. One of them apparently gave two 10-8 rounds to GSP, and the others gave him one 10-8 round, with the rest being 10-9.
awsome fight jon fitch is a super tough dude but GSP is too much of a beast this has made fitch a much better fighter cant wait too see GSP dominate BJP
JAZACKED, you know the UFC brass sets up the entering the octagon to hype the fight, right? It’s called busine$$

Exactly…GSP is a class act, not like big-mouth-attention-whore BJ, and his pimp Dana…c’mon! No body wants to see WWF bullshit like that…
Damn Great fight.
Fitch was a good #1 competitor
But damn GSP is a monster from the looks of this fight, he can go 10 rounds ith top guys if need be lol. But seriously the man’s conditioning is out of this world.
GSP representing the 514 baby! Tristar gym in the house, Zahabi, the Crow, Greg “Yoda” Jackson and Kru Phil Nurse!
YESSSSSS GSP IS THE KING
he should have been able to finish him a couple of times but couldn’t. i don’t think that he will be able to finish BJ Penn. if he gets a win against BJ it will be by decsion. but i think that BJ can win by tKO or submission.as good as Fitch was he is not as good as BJ Penn at striking or submission skills.
Even in their first fight George was able to control Penn on the ground, and since then George has improved tremendously. The only thing that Penn has done is stepped up his cardio fought smaller, and less skilled fighters since he lost to George. BJ looked like a tubby bitch in the ring. If you think BJ has a chance pull your head out of your ass seriously. BJ is going to get is ass kicked. GSP vs Silva would be a good fight. If GSP can take down Silva I think he will win. Silva has shown that he can be taken down(Lutter and Henerson) and GSP can take everyone down.
Yea i know its been but said SO WHAT this is for GSP
Seriously guys (especially you Dana White) what the hell is wrong with you, this was GSP’s Night and a great one at that after an awesome fight GIVE HIM THE F’n Mic. I wouldn’t have cared if he would have talked for 20 minutes i wouldnt have changed the channel till he finished. Of course some ppl blame BJ Penn but we all (should) know its not his fault he was just going with the crowed and would’ve have looked like a pussy if he didnt show some backbone. All in all great fight… Bad post fight… Bad ref-(because he was picking on GSP just because he wasnt the home local) if you dont believe me rewatch the fight and listen for the stupid calls he was giving him 1- he got pissed every time he touched the cage when Fitch was on top and 2- he told him to watch the head one too many times (I think GSP knows the rules Poser) damn im just pissed cause he deserves better
GSP will pulverize Penn again. Read what the guy above me said, he summed it up pretty well.
Fitch’s chin and heart are unbelievable. I can’t wait to see BJ and GSP throw down again. The first time they fought BJ was cutting GSP up at first, but as was typical of him at the time he gassed. GSP ran away with it after that. He didn’t really damage BJ all that much, just out worked him. The thing to keep in mind is it’s a whole new BJ Penn he will be fighting this time. His strength and coditioning are were they should be now. GSP has improved quite a bit since then himself, but will it be enough?
I personally think this fight should have been stopped earlier. I thought it was great, and I thought Fitch was amazingly tough, but there were a few times where he could not fully defend himself intelligently. He would get dropped and just get whaled on. It is a good thing he is so tough, but that does not mean this fight should have gone the distance. Other fights would have been called if that much punishment had been doled out. Great fight. And Brock-that charge across the octagon after dropping Herring was amazing-good thing Herring ducked or we could have saw TKO by spear! LOL!
It was BJ Penn that tatooed GSP in 2006! The only pound for pound that matters is the pounding GSP will receive by BJ this year!
Calling out someone in the Octagon is what UFC wants! It is called MARKETING for you Dimwits that don’t know this. This was staged! Dummies!
Tito O, Frank Shamrock, KENFLO,Chuck Lismell (I mean Lidell) all did this for UFC MARKETING. They got paid for being there. Fools too stupid to know the game should know that GSP was Scared!
cjdselling,
if the ref actually listened to you EVERYONE would be pissed! INCLUDING JON FITCH!!!
it’s a FIGHT dammit! not fricken table tennis. we dont need another Miragliotta BS stoppage!
MMAFAN no way will Bj beat george st pierre .. i believe the fight will be similar to their first fight … lots of take down defense on BJ’s part, and a lot of striking on GSPs .. it would be interesting fight however i believe george would take it 30-27 .. pure striking, maybe a little jui jitsu but no way BJ beat him now .. GSP is to confident, and all around crazy .. no disrespect to BJ hes a great fighter but he should concentrate on defending the lightweight title … watch out for danzig!
big mango ur a fucking idiot .. how is GSP scared? he’s already beaten BJ Penn not to mention beat the shit out of matt hughes who by the way knocked BJ out last time i checked
Hey Do Do nipple,
If you check out when BJ came into the Octagon, you will see that GSPee took 2 or three steps backwards. GSPee was scared, he was so scared thinking about Dec 27, he had to take sips from his water bottle. By the way, I think that bottle has steroids in it. He will get busted like all the rest! Peace Out DOO
Hey do do hairy guy,
One more thing. No, two more things:
1) stop using swear words
2) You better start mowing lawns to save up for the PPV in Dec. 27 2008 (don’t know if you can afford it).
One more thing I forgot, GSP ended up in the hospital for his injuries by BJ. Did you forget?! It is going to be a great fight!
On December 27, According to Hawaiian Legend, The Hawaiian Gods of the Sea, Air, Mountain and Volcano will converge on this evening. King Kamehameha the first used this particular evening to defeat all the Kings in the Hawaiian Islands. This day, chosen by our Hawaiian Native BJ Penn is the day GSP and Canada will be defeated. Yes, Yes, Yes
GSP is the best fighter in the world. Pound 4 Pound he’s on another level. The complete package. If BJ Penn ,who by the way never had St. Pierre in any danger a couple years ago, is gonna match up against that Mack Truck that just ran through Jon Fitch last weekend he’s gonna need those Hawaiian gods and the United States Military from over there too … If and When they fight I know GSP will be in shape to go 5 hard rounds but will BJ Penn ? Hellllll no he was winning the first fight for a round then he gassed out and just got took down at will for 2 more rounds. He’s in for a beating.
For those that talk about how impressive he’s been over the last few years. Yes he’s been very impressive against 155 lb guys like Joe Stevenson and Sean Sherk. St. Pierre is dominating guys in the bigger better weight class.
Nobody can question either of these two fighters talent but what I can’t question is that St. Pierre is the bigger fighter and the better athlete. I also have never seen him out of shape or unprepared physically for a fight … BJ Penn has all the natural talent in the world. But he shouldn’t be given the benefit of the doubt now for a fight that he lost and that he wan unprepared for … He gassed period point blank. If he was in shape would he have won ? You’ll never know. You wanna big up BJ thats your man … Do You. But give GSP his props because he’s a true champion and has fought the who’s who of the MMA welterweights from Parysian to Sherk, Trigg, Penn, Hughes (twice), Koscheck, Serra and Fitch. He’s also one of the true gentleman of the sport.
I suspect GSP is on somekind of performance enhancer. It is inhuman to go that pace for that many rounds. I think the Canadians are somehow getting around the Doping methods.
It is obvious he is on somekind of enhancement.
He reminds me of Stephan Bonner. What do you think? Test him up, down and sideways.
Wow! What a fight! GSP is unbelievable! He’s way better since the last time I seen him fight! Fair-play to Jon Fitch though he’s one tough tough mofo!! I can’t wait to see Bj Penn vs GSP that’s gonna be savage, I thought before that BJ would flog GSP in a rematch but after seeing that I think it could go either way… Great fight and great sportsmanship!
Great fight, but I have got to say that was disrespectful of BJ and that was BS that they didn’t let him get to do his shout outs!
Also BJ does NOT deserve it yet. They should defend their titles 2-3 more times before having to dot his fight.
First, GSP is not on any performance enhancer. He trains like a maniac and the specific plyometrics that he does require his complete mental capacity. Steroids turn you into a brainless idiot because it raises your testosterone levels and you are unable to think properly (example: Phil Baroni).
Second, GSP should fight Anderson Silva as soon as possible! That would be the biggest matchup in the history of the sport, even bigger than if Couture and Fedor were to face off. Along with Silva, Penn is ine of the most naturally talented fighters of all time, but unlike Silva, he relies on his natural ability too much and doesn’t worry about his cardio or his strength conditioning. If Penn trained as hard as GSP I think he could beat him, but I doubt that will happen, so let’s see a fight that showcases two fighters with the same work ethic.
GSP vs. Silva = MMA History!
hulagirl & pink, your both on hawian ice..GSP is gonna lite this kat up, this where hawian punch will derive from.. GSP is just unstoppable right now..
BJ lost alot of his class, to me..
GSP is a true champion. John fitch is one tough dude. and both are totally awesome athletes who deserve the respect they command. What an amazing fight. Both of you guys deserve to be champions.
It would not be a contest if GSP fought Silva.
That would be ridiculous! Silva will pummel GSP into a TKO easily. This is my analysis:
1) GSP goes for the shoot, Anderson Smashes his knee into GSP’s Canadian forehead. GSP is done like the sun! Waste $50.00 on PPV!
Come on, how many fighters come out of Canada?
Right! Now, why is it that GSP spots a tan all the time? He spends half the time in a Tanning Salon for sure.
The only flaw in GSP is that he needs to learn how to finish, its not that he sucks its just that he can still improve it, i counted like 6 times whee he could have finished the fight
I am new to MMA. I think GSP is soooo HOT! I know he can model after he retires.
Does anyone know how I can get in touch with him? Is he married? does he have a Girlfriend?
GSP will crush Penn today. Penn is just a naturally gifted arrogant dipshit. Fortunately for us all GSP is more naturally gifted and much more well-rounded.
Penn has no class whatsoever. Which is why will never be as mainstream as GSP
TO Jaks Emel, I heard that BJ Penn just hired a
computer Forensics expert to track you down!
You better watch out when he comes knocking at your door and put you in a rear naked choke. The truth is man, he won’t let you tap out!!
In my opinion, if the door bell rings, you better run and hide. You can’t hide behind your
cheap computer monitor! Are you ready? Lets….
get it on!!
i agree with all those who said penn should defend his title at least 2 more times. as far as im concern, he didnt even defend it once. not sure if that was an interim fight or whatever.. anyways. you cant just drop weight cuz u cant beat the 2 best guys and get the title of the lighter weight class as a shortcut to fight the champion in the higher weightclass. its like gsp wanting to fight silva right now. and silva wanting to fight big nog. just shouldnt happen. but whatever, dont matter. gsp fight stronger guys, while penn fight weaker guys. penn will lose
That was a great fight. Granted GSP put on a clinic, but Jon Fitch spiked at moments and also gave a good show by hanging in there. As far as the BJ Penn issue is concerned I’m disgusted. I’m such a fan of his ability, but how dare you do that to a champion as honorable as GSP after his first title defense (during this reign of course).
He just wanted to thank his trainers and sponsers and didn’t get the chance to, as a fellow UFC fighter BJ should know how important that is. GSP was clearly disrespected and still remained humble. I want to see his reign as champion last forever. It’s rare you see that kind of class in any sport. He’s a genuine martial artist…
Oh I forgot to say. I hope he destroys BJ Penn. I never thought I’d say that about BJ, but he deserves it.
The one thing that impressed me the most is GSP went for that heelhook probly in homeage to Ximu machado. He only had a couple of weeks to learn it in brazil from a real leglock master but he felt confident enough in his learning ability to test it out. He is always evolving.
Nobody was rooting for fitch… People were either screaming GSP or USA… Sucks for him…
nice work GSP
George would like nothing better than to crack it off with BJ Penn. He has beaten him once already, even after he took an unintentional thumb to the eye, which the referee missed. I think to St.Pierre, BJ ranks right up along side Matt Hughes when it comes down to being a disrespectful little narcissist. GSP will SMASH Penn.
