UFC Primetime GSP vs Hardy

UFC and Spike TV brought back the popular UFC Primetime show for UFC 111 featuring George St. Pierre vs Dan Hardy. The show kicked off with a preview of both fighters and their training regime. My favourite part of the previous Primetime show was the inside look on how the top MMA fighters train. Seeing GSP doing explosive weight lifting techniques makes you realize just how athletic he truly is. If you happened to miss the episode the following clip shows just how explosive GSP can be.


The First episode was a quick look into the training facilities of the fighters and their trainers. GSP was shown training not just in Montreal but also in New York with Renzo Gracie and Dan Hardy was training at his UK Team Rough House gym and also arriving early in New Jersey to train with Matt Serra. Overall it was a good start and I can't wait for the next one. Be sure to check out parts 2 and 3 which will air on March 17 and March 24, respectively at 10 pm ET.

I would like to leave off with a clip from the show, with GSP talking about a bet he made on the Olympic Ice Hockey Gold Medal Game.

Who will win Ben Henderson vs Frankie Edgar 2?
