However, ring rust + injury + age make him a prime target for a striker in his prime. Condit isn't just a guy with a heavy set of hands.... he is very slick and uses some excellent strategies to set up his strikes.

GSP isn't really old in fighting age. Fighters tend to peak a lot later then most sports.
He has experience but he hasn't taken too much damage in his career.
