He's the only Champion that I know of that stepped right out there and told the world that Silva was going down last night.
He must be feeling pretty good about himself this morning, but not as good as Chris.
Why do you think GSP stepped out there in the face of common theory? Does he not personally like Silva or was he hoping this could lead to his 'superfight'? Ponder
Trains with him and A LOT of fighters were calling for Weidman to win last night. This wasn't much of an upset, for people who knew.
GSP stepped up and stated that Weidman is going to shock the world.
Almost ALL THE UG came down on him hard. He is scared of Silva (LOL, LMAO). The rest like myself thought it was because Weidman was his friend. WRONG too.
GSP knew.
or rashad silvas my favorite fighter but ...... i dont know
Urijah Faber and Frankie Edgar (tag team champs) and the Chael Sonnen (intercontinental champion) also picked him.

I see what you did there.
GSP saw what you did there before you did.
I believe GSP came out first picking him (took massive heat) and as a champion it carries more weight.
It feels kind of cheap for people who picked Weidman, because the fight was so bizarre.

little known, but Faber/Edgar are the cruiserweight tag team champs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WCW_Cruiserweight_Tag_Team_Championship
Kazp306 - Wonder if it has anything to do with him being snatched by aliensHaha great cartoon

Umm. No offense, but pro predictions can look like garbage after a fight. Countless accounts of them being right or wrong, whether it's partial or 100%.

ummm look bro, here's the deal.
Your screen name is " The Spider" I hardly think that anything you say besides blabbing out another excuse for your playboy is impartial.
Exit stage left, you infiltrating bastard. How dare you enter the honorable 'appreciation thread' for your fallen heros demise.
dbl
fearthebeard - GSP also picked Sonnen to win
Yeah probably. I don't remember. I'm sure almost everyone picked GSP over Serra the first time, maybe Bones over The Hammer. Serra said even a few close friends/family picked GSP lol. Reem over Bigfoot, Cro Cop over Gonzaga, those were some of the more popular upsets.
Oh yeah, Florian picked Anderson on that fuel tv show, but as he walked to Anderson's face on the big screen, he ended up saying "weidman" lmao. That was almost as gold as the ufc fox intros messing up with that priceless look on Joe Rogan's face :)
Yeah but people say this shit all the time esp about their training partners
GSP not only said Weidman would win, but finish Silva in the second round and shock the world.
Nostradamus GSP.
