UFC Hughes vs. GSP
I got Hughes at -109. GSP is freakishly strong, but this is a matchup of strengths and I see Hughes having an advantage (albeit not a huge advantage) in wrestling and control. GSP certainly is the favorite if he can find a way to keep Hughes trading with him on the feet, but Hughes isn't dumb enough to trade with him. I'm not saying that Hughes will always win this fight, but if this fight is not stopped by GSP by the 2nd round, Hughes will almost certainly win by decision.
I would say that the line should be more around -180 for Hughes, but some people just do not like Hughes personally and the line has been moving in towards GSP probably due to personal distaste of how Hughes carries himself.
