GSP got by BJ, he still has to fight Thaigo Alves before this could happen. Even if it does there are weight class for a reason. Anderson will beat him to death. Same way BJ should stay in his weight, GSP needs to stay at his. Problem for Dana is there is no pay-per0view at either weight class right now. He is running out of headline fighters

sorry guys, i just had a thought, why not go back too old style UFC. Dana i hate too say it but it would be the only way too see who would be the best pound for pound. And for all you panty wastes,get over it, when you fight you fight to win, we have all seen it before and we should be able too see it again.Don’t get me wrong, there are certain things you can’t do an the fighters know this,but DANA WHITE you know this would be the biggest money maker yet,anyway think about it ,lots of you will agree with me and lets see what happens,FID OUT…………………

I agree with mah mah. St.Pierre should dominate an take care of buisiness. But i have been wrong before, but who cares who wins this would be the fight of the decade, forget those other bums///// BJPenn ?too much hate,fights with his heart not his head, too bad though he is a really good fighter,either way both gsp@silva would destroy him.., FID OUT………..

Fights I would like to see people change weight class for in the UFC;
1) GSP vs Anderson Silva @185
2) BJ vs GSP @175
3) Lyoto vs Anderson Silva @185
4) Chuck vs Noguiera @205+
5) Kalib Starnes vs Brock Lesnar @300+

just to let you know GSP has fought BJ at welter wieght and won so whats the point of that now and anyways BJ is much better at 155 but Lyota vs anderson would be great.

I think there isnt that much of a size difference since GSP walks around about 190 and i dont know what Silva walks around at but hes fought at 170 bfore so it cant be to much higher than that

I like the catch weight idea since no belts are exchanged

GSP vs- Silva @ 195(GSP is 193-196lbs/spider is 208-214)

so its both good for the fans and as a 1 time superfight attraction it brings some nice publicity for the UFC and could probably sell out a large 40,000 +capacity stadium if complemented by a few solid big name matchups maybe include Chuck or Brock+ a few popular lightweights like BJ/ Tyson Griffin/Huerta/ and maybe 1 big LHW match like Thiago Silva v- Wanderlei/Jardine

maybe an August show or a late September show?

Silva is a horrible match-up for GSP because Silva is much too big for him. GSP is 5′9″ and Silva is 6′3.” If GSP was hit by Silva, he would feel like he was hit by a Mac Truck. Silva walked through Franklin and Dan Henderson – two very tough and very big fighters. No disrespect to GSP: pound for pound he is the best fighter in MMA today, but he should not go up in weight because his frame is too small. Silva at 205 is a bad idea for the same reason: his frame is too thin. Liddell’s wrists are the size of Silva’s thighs.

I don’t think Silva could fight at a lighter weight either. He looks like skin and bones as it is, with a pair of chicken legs that look like they can barely hold him up. If he loses 10 pounds, he will disappear. The fight is not a good idea. Let GSP be champion at 170 and Silva at 185. There should be plenty of competition at both weights to keep both fighters busy.
