GSP. Thiago is not going to beat hughes so i doubt this match will happen anytime soon

Very possible that Alves could take out Hughes, Hughes is a veteran... he's crafty, intelligent, and still a game fighter in my opinion...

But I think Gsp would be able to beat Alves. I can see him lining up a submission or finishing him with ground and pound...

GSP wins.

But if GSP just wants to stand and strike he loses.

Thiago is very young and going to be a very good fighter for years to come.

Agreed on all points. GSP is just too big, I think he'll have more success keeping it on the ground where Alves could just stand against Alves, particularly if they fight sooner, rather than later. But if GSP wants to keep it standing, he's going to sleep.
