Extremely under and over-rated

Under-Rated
-Alessio Sakara(Needs to stop gnp from guard and STAND BACK UP!)
-Nate Marquardt(Needs 1 more win for a title shot)
-Karo Parysian(Diego will find out soon why)
-Jon Fitch(just wait til he gets a headline fight)


Over-Rated
-Diego Sanchez(no one thinks hes really gonna win do you?)
-Chris Leben(is he still looking for his chin?)
--Ken Shamrock(has this guy beat anyone good?)
-Brandon Vera (calling out Chuck Liddell?) LOL


In The Middle
I see Franklin and Hughes in the cross-fire. The are both awsome, and I understand why some would say they are over-rated, but now they will have a chance to prove who they are now that their divisions don't suck anymore. As for GSP, this man is far from over-rated. U would think hes the champ instead of Hughes with the opponents he has beated lately. Not to take anything from Hughes but, like i said, there is about 4-5 badass new fighters in that division and he gets a taste of the New talent instead of all these weak title defences that hes made. Good victories but crappy opponents.

i dont think gsp is overrated by the general fans, but the amount of people that think he is some mma god that will run through hughes easily astonishes me.

its going to be a great fight though

Brandon aint overrated; he looks decent.
Sakara; thats one overrated mother fucker; Captain Boxing; this is MMA

Your opinion sucks dick; but Ill fight to the death for your right to say it.

He's just not going to be able to beat karo, hughes, or gsp. Just like you can write english but you just aren't gonna be an english major anytime soon.
