Bill: I agree with JAB. BJ definitely lost that first fight with GSP. He beat the hell out of GSP in the first round but as usual (until his new conditioning coach) he ran out of steam and GSP came on to edge out the second round and clearly take the third for the decision. If you watch a replay of the fight, hopefully you will agree.
You're confused I think. BJ & GSP only fought twice. You're thinking of the BJ vs Hughes fight where he separated his rib while trying to take Matt's back. He lost due to hurting his rib AND running out of steam.
I think BJ has finally got the conditioning thing down and I predict he will beat Sanchez with superior hands and jiu-jitsu on his side, similar to his fight with Florian though he might end it earlier. Sanchez's size won't even be a factor as BJ has fought Machida (current UFC light-heavy champ) in the past to a decision loss but never took any real damage.
