GSP dominates this one. Saku will come to fight, though.

Georges is simply more athletic and well rounded.

Saku is a tall guy for a WW and has great wrestling but I think GSP is too well rounded to lose this one.

Under Pride rules with no drug tests or UFC with drug test?

Well effort to finish the fight would definitely go to Saku under Pride rules.

Surprisingly, it does depend on the rules. Would likely go to decision.

UFC-GSP
PRIDE-Saku
