Don't underestimate GSP's new direction and focus he is getting from training with Jackson. We've only seen 1 fight since that change, and what I saw, I was very impressed with. He came in and took care of business very effectively. He had a great game plan, and he executed it extremely well.
Also, GSP is a very big WW - I think he would fill out at 185 rather well, and would be bigger and much stronger than Silva. I'd even say that at 185, GSP would be bigger and stronger than Franklin, yet GSP is much more skilled.

Are you saying GSP is bigger an stronger then Franklin, if you are that is very laughable. Seeing Rich cuts from about 220-230. Franklin is bigger, taller, and Stronger.
GSP said he cuts from about 190, Anderson cuts from over 200lbs.
Franklin is a huge MW and was man handled.
Never mind i forgot who's post i was reading for a minute.
Anything you say about GSP vs another fighter does not count.
Anderson is by far the SUPERIOR striker.
GSP is in the same boat as Franklin good at alot of things but not great at anything.
And yes i think Franklin would knock out GSP too.
outside of Anderson, Franklin, GSP would fair well well maybe Nate M too.
GSP wouldn't even strike with Kos in that fight, go back an watch that 3rd round, i believe Kos blasted GSP one good time an it looked like it rocked him.
Like someone else said GSP has little to no head movement and would get lit up faster then a joint at a doobie brothers concert.
