if your talking about Pride they only had one OWGP cro-cop won. If your including any MMA tourney with no weight classes, I'd say Royce gracie was the lightest that I can think of.

Im just curious, at what point during the duration of the Hughes/GSP 2 fight was Hughes ever posing a threat to GSP?? Hughes was picked apart. I'm just as much a Hughes fan as I am a GSP fan by the way but it's kinda hard and farfetched to believe Hughes is going to win when they fight for the 3rd time after the last showing. I do expect to see a better fight though.

No part of that fight looked good for hughes he got beat pretty easily but alot of people think he is done because of the loss but i think it will make him better. I think GSP is the future of the WW's but I think Matt has what it takes to win this fight. He will come back more prepared than he has for any other fight. I am a fan of both also but i think the rubber match goes back to hughes

i am just as much of a hughes fan as i am a GSP fan but i think hughes can come back as prepared as he's ever been in his career and GSP will still win the rubber match. hughes got picked apart

I like Penn. Coming from hilo he's like a god. Thats so true about his down fall (cardio)....The Gsp fight was very tight it could of went either way. Bj was out of shape but he lost to a great figher in Gsp...In shape or not in shape it would be a war if the would scrap again..And as for excuses for bj common now fans will be fans. At least he's humble and not a loud mouth like frank shamrock...As for Gsp as top figher pound of pound.. He has all the tools..But its still early...If gsp goes up in wt classes like how bj did then he would be certainly at the top. But to compare him to Fedor...NO FIGHER IN HIS CLASS....He's in a class by himself...

Hopefully we will get a chance to see it. It seems like UFC is saving GSP for diego or kos which are not in the same league as GSP or hughes time will tell

Hughes was already guaranteed a rematch. It would be happening in April but GSP got injured so they had to push back the fight Serra was guaranteed after winning TUF4. So now after UFC 69 in April then GSP should be fighting Hughes probably at UFC 71 or 72 I'm guessing.

Hey, I said I was sorry before I said it. Everyone forgave Tito when he said sorry after flicking off Shamrock. And why do I get shit for bashing people who are claiming GSP will become the best P4P fighter in history? Its just a dumb statement at this stage. It will be the same people who will jump off his bandwagon as soon as he loses one convincingly. He is a great fighter and no one is denying it. But to say he will become the best p4p fighter in history? Still sounds retarded to me....

hey man you dont have to say sorry i agree with you
