How can tyron be GOAT Weltwerweight ?

in French> "Pour moi, c´est un MATCH NUL" = "For me, this is a DRAW / NC"

@ 9mn14:


Yeah great point, GSP is that type of nice guy to say something to make his opponent feel better.
 
Anderson went up 3X against Bonnar, Irvin and Forrest lol. Didn’t want to fight Shogun or Jones. That’s cherry picking.

GSP went up 1X against the MW champion who Anderson lost to and submitted him after knocking him down.
You suffer from massive hindsight bias.

42 years old Anderson lost a hometown decision to Bisping. Lets see GSP take on emerging WW contenders at that age ... we know this won't happen because he does not take risks
 
By being the best to ever fight at the division.

It's so simple.
 
He simply doesn't have the tenure and length as champ to challenge GSP in the near-future.

Passing Hughes is a more realistic goal. People forget just how prolific and dominant GSP really was.

That's not hindsight bias. He bashes Anderson as a way to artificially, in his mind, have GSP as "the GOAT"....which is just incorrect.

It's not even an issue with Anderson as about 10 other fighters have more impressive accomplishments than GSP. But he chooses to hate on Anderson, Jones and other fighters like that.
 
If he finishes Colby he can be number 2. Like a prince
 
How to turn a thread about Woodley and the WW division into an Anderson hate parade.....

LOL

The stuff people get away with
<{hughesimpress}>
 
he has to beat Conor, conor is really good against wrestle boxers and can catch tyron coming in with his quick left hand... if tyron can beat Conor he has to be considered the best WW

36 year old WW GSP who hadn’t fought in 4 years, 2 ACL injuries past his prime went up to MW and beat “the weakest champion in MW history”, you know the guy who Anderson couldn’t even beat?

Speaking of massive hindsight bias....
 
He is 36 with only 22 fights. Several horrible title defenses and a few losses that really he should have won.

At this point and given how reluctant he is to fight frequently, I'd say there is zero chance of him overtaking the current WW Goat's like GSP and Hughes.
 
Woodley has simply reached a level that was never practiced at WW. No WW in history could face current day, prime Woodley. In addition to his accomplishments, and a more competitive WW division (albeit, still the weakest link in the sport), Woodley is easily the WW GOAT.
 
The weekly 'shit on GSP' thread.
No knowledgable fight fans actually believe Woodley is close to GSP.
If they do, we are fools for debating it with them.
 
If you guys are going to bitch and moan at one another, dont be a twat and report the other.

So why didn't GSP fight Silva when he was in his "prime" ? Or even Weidman/Rockhold? Why did he duck Whittaker ? Lol

If you can't fathom that he cherry picked Bisping you suffer from massive cognitive dissonance

The same reason why Anderson never fought Jones, Shogun etc in his prime I guess lol.

He cherry picked Bisping like how Anderson cherry picked beasts like Forrest, Irvin and Bonnar which impresses you so much

Actually 4 LHWs refused to fight Anderson, as confirmed by James Irvin

So much for cherry picking lol

Also no one is saying Anderson would beat Jones. But then again that fight didn't even make sense at the time, whereas GSP v Silva did
