GSP vs. Thiago Alves: What is amazing to me is that Georges St. Pierre has stolen the spot of "Best Pound for Pound" fighter in the world from Anderson Silva without any kind of argument. In my mind, if "The Spider" can defeat Forrest Griffin next month in Philadelphia (I wish I could go) then there is no doubt in my mind that Silva IS the "Best Pound for Pound" fighter in the world. Thiago Alves is one tough son of a bitch. This guy took everything that GSP would give him, and he kept coming back. I believe that Alves has some great things in his future and may be able to carry the Welterweight strap someday...as long as someone gets it off of GSP!The Fight: GSP dominated this fight. It is as simple as that. He took down Alves with ease whenever he felt like it and controlled every second of every round. Post fight, however, it was confirmed that St. Pierre was hurt in the third round and was able to continually dominate Alves! Too bad Alves was unaware of this apparent injury. Will this injury slow down GSP long enough for someone to step up to the plate and defeat the dominate Welterweight Champion of the World? I honestly don't think so...but only time will tell what is next for the mega-popular GSP.
