BJ vs GSP NOT confirmed for the NYE show!

Dana's exact quote from MMA Live Episode 14:

"I think the fight has to be made..."

Apparently you haven't wandered into the "BJ vs GSP confirmed for the NYE show" thread.

Everyone realizes how huge this fight would be but you want to keep GSP happy too. People forget how active he's been lately. He stated plainly that he wanted a nice break after he beat Serra but there he was last weekend defending his title.

I want this fight to happen as much as anyone else but GSP made it real clear he needs a break. Psychologically he needs to recharge. Said it himself. Mentally he's spent. I'd much rather wait and see this fight when both fighters are guaranteed to be at 100%.

exactly GSP has been more activie than any of their champs. Dana can fuck himself, and so can BJ Penn.
