New York City’s Radio City Music Hall will hold a closed-circuit screening of UFC 111 on Saturday, March 27, featuring appearances by UFC fighters Chuck Liddell, Matt Serra Stephan Bonnar. The event will be broadcast in High-Definition on Radio City Music Hall’s 70’ x 35’ screen -- the largest screen to broadcast a UFC event in history.

Just a Thought
Hardy is training with Matt Serra for this fight. GSP is training his bjj with Renzo, who gave Serra his blackbelt. Just a thought.

I think
it’s something to do with striking rather than grappling. Gsp has some funny old holes in his striking. The way he drops his right when he jabs is really risky, watch him fight and/or train, he always does it. Also he over commits and leans forward when he strikes, cause he’s usually leaning for a take down. Hardy probably wants to go over counter striking possibilities, he’s got a wicked counter left hook which may be just the ticket to be honest.

-Forrest Griffin
"My weight is not enough and strength is not enough either, so I have to take the fight by mastery."
-Fedor Emelianenko
Hardy's got some wicked hooks indeed
GSP seems to get in and out real quick, I’m not sure if he over-commits. Regardless, it’s still Hardy’s best chance of winning. Hardy’s got some nice short-range power in his hands if they clinch.
