History will not be kind to GSP

[Shadowthrone]

Cejudo's biggest thing in mma is a split decision against the guy that ktfo him and wants to duck a rubber match so stfu about shameful you pleb

 

[Morris88]

Oh look, another GSP hate thread with the same faulty arguments that others have said. No one should honestly bother with replying trying to educate him, like the others unbiased facts hurts their feelings.

Who's the girl?

 

[HwoarangStyle]

lmfao gsp is a boss. hes universally respected by 99.9% of professional mma fighters. hes a true martial artist through and through.

 

[AWilder]

Yeah....got about five sentences in and decided it was stupid and stopped reading

I should have stopped there too. I feel dumber having read the whole thing.

 

[IndyCovaHart]

The interest for gsp vs silva was not that big.

That would have easily been the biggest fight in MMA history, “Member since Friday.” lulz

 

[hansolo]

He won like 30 rounds in a row or something

Exactly... without a finish.

Been watching mma since 98 and been here since almost the same time so you are retarded

 

[Flokk]

TS is not wrong.

And even all of that would be forgiven if GSP had been an exciting fighter.

 

[Omega Man]

Time for your bottle and go night night

OP is a post Zuffa fan.

I dont mind him avoiding the WW division as he was already champ. But yes him avoiding Mr Anderson for so long was shameful. Id happily have him as GOAT if he fought Whittaker as he was contractually obliged to do and won or was even competitive. But yes him running was shameful

Prime Silva stiffens Georges. Fact

#freeDozer

Prime Silva couldn't stiffen himself without pills.

Why do people still call GSPs win over Hendricks a gift? Have you never watched the fight.

It was close as shit but GSP wasn't gifted the win. GSP won 1/3/5.

Most people watched it on TV with the benefit of replays and camera angles.

15 media analysts out of 15 including most fans thought Hendricks won.

 

[The Natural Born Runner]

Hes the greatest WW ever by 1000 fucking miles

Hes one of the GOATS

He was never busted for PEDS like many other GOATS

He only lost twice and BRUTALLY avenged BOTH of them

He won like 30 rounds in a row or something

Dual champion

Won a belt after 4 years of inactivity and multiple knee surgeries

Arguably the most complete fighter ever. Arguably the best jab in MMA. Arguably the best double leg in MMA






......basically you are wrong friend


It's funny you dont see what is unfolding at this very moment. GSP will 100% fight for the LW title within the next 2 years. Hes going to likely finish whoever it is he faces and be the first ever triple weight champion. Winning the belt at LW will just make his MW title win and WW run that much more impressive


EDIT: I should also add

WW has always been one of the deepest shark tank divisions there is

GSP always fought the next #1 contender. Never chose lower ranked opponents for title defences

Don't even try to say dual champion with a straight face.

Cherry pickers are bad for the sport...and he has a weak highlight reel

 

[ThunderStruck]

Moving up to fight a guy with a losing record against the top 10 is some fine gameplanning to rewrite his story, but at the same time the Bisping win is barely a footnote. His WW challengers had the longest win streaks of any division and WW was the top 1-2 div back then.

Why do peoples keep downplaying his win against Bisping? Bisping was the champ, KTFO'd Rockhold who was by far and away the number 1 MW at the time. He was on a 5 wins streak, the best of his career. He was regarded as having really good TDD, being very hard to hold down and having infinite cardio so it was a difficult stylistical matchup for GSP, unlike Silva's stint at LHW (NOW that's cherry picking lol).

He faced Steve Rogers. Thats a big step up in competition.

He was a journeyman champ. Him having a losing record vs the top 10 fighters he faced is a fact. GSP was an elite fighter coming back much like Sugar Ray after his 3-year layoff, but he did it against Hagler.

 

[ufcfan4]

one of the best welterweights?

That's like saying DJ is one of the best flyweights or that Anderson Silva was a solid 185er...
