    Georges St. Pierre vs. Conor McGregor?
    Georges just came out of retirement today. If CM/Mayweather doesn't happen, this fight would be a blockbuster. Would be the biggest PPV in history of the UFC. CM would probably be about +180

    No clue who I would root for. Two of the most overrated. GSP, probably. He isn't as overrated.

                GSP is 35 and hasn't fought in over 3 years. Not sure I would favor either of them.

                  McGregor would be favored for sure and he would probably win. Not sure how GSP has been training but in his prime, GSP would make Conor look like a schoolgirl.

                    Conor is too small to fight GSP. GSP is going after Thompson or Woodley or even
                    Bisping. If Conor wants to fight in Welterweight against a GSP who is back in the
                    ring with a couple wins, then he's done, because Conor is overrated. He beats up
                    skinny little twerps that weight 150 pounds.

                      GSP would dominate this one.

                        GSP would knock out Conor if he focused, i think this fight must happen it would be massive for mma.

                          nate diaz is bigger then GSP , mcgregor is basically the same size as GSP , george is just more muscular and defined if they stood next to eachother youd probably be surprised.... rumblings of GSP moving to lightweight have been going around for years
                          Hes basically a eddie alvarez size and we all seen what happened there

                          either way GSP would be a terrible matchup style of Mcgregor but we have to see what GSP looks like hes been off for 3 years and Mcgregor is the king of pissing people off and irritating them, GSP has an iron will but i think for sure Mcgregor would get under his skin , he only needs to land one clean shot and the fight changes he has a chance to beat anybody but i would slightly favor GSP even with his time off if hes anything like his prime self

                            definitely would not knock him out though its either GSP submission, decision ( most likely ) or Conor KO/TKO

                              Conor would have a puncher's chance. Sure if he lands that left it could spell trouble but GSP is the master of the blast double and ground control. GSP also fights at distance on the feet. he will wait and be patient and shoot when the time is right. One the fight is on the ground it will be 1 way traffic. GSP will wear on Conor and beat him down.

                              Fire... What does Nate being bigger than GSP have to do with anything? Nate has weak TD's and TD's are GSP's best asset. Those two facts are most important - not their size.

                                Doubt he will be GSP of 2013.

                                  Conor has also never faced a take down artist like GSP. Yeah Mends is good at it but he's a small compact FW. GSP is 2 weight classes above that. GSP is not dropping to 155. That ain't happening.

                                    Easily the biggest UFC ever with that as a headliner. I'm sure this is where they will try to head with things.

                                      Was responding to the guy above saying GSP is much bigger then mcgregor and mcgregor only fought small guys... check the quote he wrote and I quoted him on

                                      Nate Diaz and GSP are polar opposite style wise and fighting wise was just comparing size to his argument

                                        Love all the "Conner is overrated talk". Heard Alvarez an Aldo say something similar.

                                              Not for CFFC but I latched on with another promotion called Maverick MMA. 1st show is April 7th.

                                              CFF had a good show last night. Jens Pulver commentated the fights with my old partner!

                                                I'll take the "decision machine" by decision -140, or Conor by KO +130

                                                  speaking of nate diaz and GSP that would be a fun matchup to see

                                                  gonna be interesting to see where the UFC takes this with GSP , would be wild to see a catch fight with Anderson at 177 then a 160 catch weight with Mcgregor

                                                    He will probably fight Anderson Silva.

                                                    The fight that everybody wanted back in the day.

                                                      CFF had a good show last night. Jens Pulver commentated the fights with my old partner!
                                                      Patrick Sabatini fights this Friday night at the Trop. If u were doing the fights I was gonna stop by and say hello. Must be strange for your partner cause Pulver is about 5 ft 2 and u looked to be around 7 ft 7 when I saw you the first time.

                                                        Yeah I saw Sabatini is fighting at ROC tonight. I hope he does well - good kid.

                                                        I'm 6'1" and obviously taller with shoes and these smaller guys are barefoot so I do appear much taller! LOL

                                                          On Monday’s The MMA Hour podcast, legendary boxing coach Freddie Roach — who trained extensively with Georges St-Pierre during his time off — might have let slip GSP's first opponent for his UFC comeback.
