You all watching this series. Actually the 1st episode was pretty cool.
Hardy is a likable sort of Villain if that makes any sense. He is arrogant but in an entertaining sort of way. I also liked last part of the show. Although I don't see how 3 weeks is going to help? GSP turning to olympic style lifting. I have always been a proponent of this. Lift heavy and explosive. You get your cardio from training in the sport. I can't stand that light lifting high rep BS |

I really like Hardy, but I don't give him more than a puncher's chance here, which is as much as I would give anyone else at 170. I predict this fight will look a lot like the Thiago Alves fight, although GSP might be able to finish it on the ground.

The only difference looks like Hardy has a longer reach and also he may actually be physically stronger than Alves. They said Hardy could deadlift 500lbs which is a lot for a fighter especially at 170. Theoretically he should be able to get back to his feet easier with that kind of strength. |

You think he's stronger than Alves? Alves is built like a brick shithouse.
I think GSP has a slight reach advantage over Hardy too, FWIW. |

Royce Gracie could deadlift 500 pounds. Didn't help him against Matt Hughes or Sakuraba.

If GSP doesn't stop Hardy I will be very dissapointed.
