Thats not very impressive for me. Now that Big Tim is set for life he doesn't really care all that much about the wins.

Anderson has fought constantly, took out Hendo, fought in a 2nd weight devision, and dealt with a guy who tucked his chin and just waited.

GSP and BJ Penn both have good arguments to be ahead of Fedor, and whomever wins their superfight should be.


HOWEVER..... A win over Andrei, (who has been on a winning streak).... Would in my mind push Fedor to a 1/2 spot untill his competition fights all year and he takes 2009 off

I'm sorry but bj who holds a 1-2 at WW and a 3- 0 at LW, should go ahead in the pound if he beats GSP??? Doesn't make sense to me, and Randy beat an injured Tim Sylvia and decisioned him, where fedor took on a 100% tim sylvia and didn't have to cut weight and destroyed him...
