Are GSP fans justifying this rumoured Nate fight by saying that it is a test run at LW? and that an eventual LW title match will come?
I would assume so otherwise the Nate fight in itself could STRONGLY be considered a bitch move as Tyron is suggesting.. but if you are taking the fight on a path to eventually get 3 titles it has some merit I suppose.
+ It's funny how GSP didn't need a test run at MW.. I guess because the easiest guy was already holding the belt.
+ Do you really think GSP will continue to Khabib after Nate? He could go directly to Khabib if he wanted, Khabib even called him out after beating Al. I'm guessing GSP will fight Nate then reveal he has yet another ass disease which prevents him from competing against Khabib, or against anyone, ever again.. but thanks for the PPV buys.
+ Despite what you fanboys are claiming, GSP's real legacy is as a WELTERWEIGHT. Collecting these titles is neat, beating Bisping was 'cool'. But it in no way earns GSP the rank of top middleweight or even top 10. If he were to beat Khabib I suppose his legitimacy at LW would be stronger than MW given that Khabib is a much more respectable and worthy champion compared to Ping.
+ To really improve his legacy GSP should prove that the WW division hasn't passed him by and that he is truly an ALL-time great (as opposed to great in his era). After all he is and will always be remembered as a WW legend. Cherry picking fights and securing wins over easy opponents in different weight classes is cool, and it's fun to watch if you're a fan of GSP already, but legitimate legacy building has to occur in the weight class that brought you all your fame and success... prove that you're still the best! Then take some fun fights for your fans.. fight Woodley FFS.
+ Why use GSP's age as an excuse? He's 36? Romero is fighting for the title at 41... DC fighting for another belt at 39. What is GSP's real reason not avoiding Woodley? Amanda Nunes is by far one of the most unpopular and unrecognised champions and even Ronda fucking Rousey came back to fight her because she was holding 'her' belt... so don't use the excuse that Woodley doesn't deserve it. He happens to be holding the WW belt and GSP should fight him purely for that reason.
I hope for a reasonable response, not looking to flame. But wondering if you GSP fans h
Again, you're assuming it's GSP that wanted to fight Nate, it was Dana's fucking idea, if GSP had it his way he might very well take on Khabib immediately.
Sorry I couldn't bother reading the rest of your post, waste of my time
