UFC 79, who will win?

Well for all you UFC fans, the final event of the year is almost upon us, and opinion is divided on the 2 main fights.

Will Georges St Pierre repeat his battering of former champ Matt Hughes, or will Hughes' strength and experience take him to an upset win and interim welterweight title?

In the battle of the big hitters on a losing streak, can Chuck Liddell rediscover his previous form and KO his nemesis, or will Wanderlei Silva sink the final nail in Chuck's coffin?

Vote above...

(PS, yes I was a little bored when I made this poll, but who cares...)

PPS, this thread is not particularly for general UFC discussion, as that can be found here,

Re: UFC 79, who will win?

GSP and Silva for me - GSP is better than Hughes in every way except maybe wrestling but that has improved as well as we saw against Koscheck so maybe now it really is every dept.I just hope Hughes tries to stand and trade with GSP again and gets his ass handed to him once again.I also hate Hughes,the one dimensional,bible bashing,jock farmboy ****** ,no offence to any farmboys out there

Lidell has looked nowhere near his best for some time now, even against average opposition and I think Silva is going to come out like a man posessed,trust me dont let that malarkey with the rules of no elbows in pride be an issue,using elbows wont be a problem for this guy,he is an animal
Chuck is a nice guy and was always in decent scraps but I think his time has passed

Re: UFC 79, who will win?

I'm going with GSP and Silva. I don't doubt Liddell's and Hughes' ability or desire to win I just think, in the case of GSP he has more ability and in the case of Silva he has more desire. Have you seen the build-up programme with footage of Hughes laughing his ass off when GSP got knocked out, I think that little bit of footage may have been a bit of a motivational tool for GSP.

I'm concerned for Silva though because he may be affected by the curse of All Access.

Re: UFC 79, who will win?

Well, only 1 person got it right, and I have a sneaking suspicion that "guess" came in after Saturday night...
