I'm a big supporter of the UFC (and train Gracie JiuJitsu & at UFC Gym) and especially the USA, but I have to say George St.Pierre is an MMA wizard!
Don't tell me Leilani posted this...
Cameron, GSP is also my #1 favorite fighter...and believe me, it's a hard decision to make! It used to be Anderson Silva, until his embarassing performance in the octagon with Demian Maia two fights ago. I'll actually be cheering for Vitor Belfort when he fights Silva next month. :)

P.S. Of course I posted this! Bob hasn't written a single blog post here...but he is also an MMA fan! ;)
