There is a big UFC event at the end of the month 4.30.11. The main event will be GSP vs Shields and honestly this doesn’t look that competitive to me. I don’t think this will end in a knockout or even a submission based on both fighters’ previous performances. This is a big fight in Canada where they have not gone through the downturn like America, so this is sold out with over 55,000 people that will be attending the live event to watch and support their national hero win.
I do expect GSP to win by decision. Of course you never know, right? Matt Serra got the lucky one punch tko, but we know Shields doesn’t carry that type of punching power. This is a long shot for Shields but he has a long winning streak going back the last 6 years. I am expecting GSP to fight conservatively and to easily grind out a decision.
GSP’s last 3 fights:
Shield’s last 3 fights:
Personally, I thought Kampmann won that fight. Anyways, the common thread in these last 6 fights is that they all went to a decision. The difference is GSP never gassed out in any of those fights while Shields did in his fights.
