In a recent interview with Showdown Joe, GSP diverts some of the attention off of him and on to Anderson Silva. Anderson Silva is the widely considered to be the pound for pound MMA king, and the number one contender is Chris Weidman....
In the video below, GSP believes that Anderson's next fight with Chris Weidman is a bad match match for Anderson....
MMA Weekly covered this story and this is what they had to say...
"While the spotlight is currently focused on UFC welterweight championGeorges St-Pierre‘s every move – including his recentverbal warfare with UFC 158 opponent Nick Diaz – the champ is pretty good at deflecting that attention in other directions, notably towards his friend Chris Weidman."
St-Pierre, in a recent Sportsnet Canada, said, "not only does he think Weidman will defeat middleweight champion Anderson Silva at UFC 162, but that “it’s a bad match-up for Anderson Silva, very bad” and that Weidman will finish Silva.

Here's my two sense on the matter....Chris Weidman is a good wrestler, however he hasn't fought any top contenders....I think hyping this kid up is great PR, but do we think Chris is better than Chael Sonnen, Dan Henderson and other wrestlers that Anderson has faced.....I think its pretty premature to be calling Chris as the next big thing...
Many die hard MMA fight fans want to see Anderson Silva vs. GSP, and so does Anderson Silva...it will be interesting to see what happens when both GSP and Anderson Silva win in their upcoming title fights.
