    I'm never as excited/nervous for a fight as I am when GSP is fighting. By far my favourite.

    Otherwise I want to watch guys who are good workers and are multifaceted. Anderson Silva, Roger Huerta, Thiago Silva, Brandon Vera, Jeff Joslin, Fedor Emelianenko, Quentin Jackson, Andrei Arlovski, Gesias Calvancante, Nick Diaz, etc..

    I like guys who fight to win, not fight to not lose.
    AA used to fight to win, but now since he lost back to back fights with Sylvia and got KTFO'd in one, he fights not to lose which is a shame.

    The Prodigy BJ PENN. is by far my favorite fighter. Most complete fighter in all mix martial arts IMO. Fought in 3 weigh classes and performed well. Got to cheer for a fellow islander.

    I'd really like to see Anderson Silva fight up a weight class (WW) instead of just sitting pretty at middleweight where he is so comfortable.

    Other notables are Kenny Florian and Nate Diaz, both of whom are sponsored by SHOYOROLL a local brand from Guam where Im from!

    I also enjoy watching old tapes of Enson Inoue who frequents Guam quite often to train here and has the heart of a warrior.

    And who doesn't like Fedor? He's an amazing HEAVYWEIGHT.

    If he moves classes it will be up, not down. I don't think he can make 170 without taking out major organs or amputating limbs.

    And the guy has only had 6 fights in less than 2 years in the division. I admit he's pretty much cleaned it out, but I wouldn't say he's just sitting pretty. He's done his job...really well.

    Since the TS is just asking about ufc that is all I will discuss

    LW: BJ, Huerta
    WW: GSP, Fitch
    MW: Anderson
    LHW: Chuck, Rampage, Sok, Rua
    HW: Big nog, Vera, Kongo

    GSP baby, it's all about GSP.

    And I plan on being a Brock fan someday.

    I forgot to say ditto.

    I was nervous for the Frank Trigg fight, Sean Sherk fight and the Koscheck fight.
    of course I wasn't worried about the Matt Serra fight.. just like it looks like GSP wasn't either [​IMG]
