You mean when Firas in 2011 said they wanted him to fight at 155 until Frankie got the belt?since it fit some random shertard's agenda.
That's not even true. Back in 2009 GSP was so small for WW he hired a new nutritionist team to bulk him up.Since weight cutting evolved (the most valid use of "evolution" among the MMA fanbase).
Everyone keeps saying he could make 155, himself included. Has GSP ever been a small Welterweight? He also wants to go up to 185 tonight bisping or maybe Anderson Silva. Wouldn't he give up a size advantage?.View attachment 202039 View attachment 202041
Yeah he was a big ww, if he's gonna change division it would be to go upEveryone keeps saying he could make 155, himself included. Has GSP ever been a small Welterweight?

Or When Stephen Thompson said GSP could make waves at 155 last year?
Don't post when you are ignorant.
So fighters who train with him are delusional and don't know him? His opponents being 10-15lbs bigger than him on fight night AFTER he bulked up makes GSP big?Insane, delusional people would say that, or never followed GSP's career.
GSP is a big welterweight. Oh, I think GSP might think he is a small welterweight though. I think he somehow want to think he's Fedor or something and fight bigger opponents
I never saw Edgar make 145 before he attempted it. Are you suggesting that is impossible .. even though it happened?Don't be ignorant and invest all your belief in third party commentary.
You ever see GSP make 155?
I didn't fucking think so.
GSP's reach is 4" longer than Jacares and 3' longer than Romero's. Just 1" shorter than Luke Rockhold's. If you believe the reach stats, that is. Which you're dumb if you do.GSP walked around at 185 to 190 when he was fighting. WW was comfortable. I think he is too short (5-9 or 5-10) to stay at 185 permanently. He would be giving up a lot of weight and reach to guys like Romero, Weidman, Rockhold, Souza, etc. It's one thing to take a one time payday against Bisping at 185, its a bad idea to stay permanently at 185 given the size/height/reach disadvantage. I don't think GSP could get to 155, but I think he could do a catch weight at 160 or 162 if Conor and GSP want to do a money fight.
Massive .. as in .. who did he fight where you can source a weight that is less than GSP's?He used to be massive WW. The biggest in the division.
Then guys started cutting even more weight than he did, and now he's a small WW.
You can't hit what you can't see.I never saw Edgar make 145 before he attempted it. Are you suggesting that is impossible .. even though it happened?
I mean this seems about right...but how the hell are you so precise when fight night weight never released? Nice story though.Since always. He was ~180lbs in 2009 when he beat BJ 2nd time. He was 185-187 after that minus the Shields fight where he got up to 194 and could not maintain it and was only 191 on fight night. He went back to 185 after that.
He was smaller than every single WW fighter he fought, every single one.
I'm not talking about Edgar, in case you missed that.I never saw Edgar make 145 before he attempted it. Are you suggesting that is impossible .. even though it happened?
