Making an argument in another thread I decided that it was worth a new thread. Here is 2 truth about GSP that I hope will make some peoples think about it. Please let the trolling stuff at the door. Feel free to disagree but stay classy.
1- GSP HAS PASSED HIS PRIME. As simple as that. People must stop bitching after the way he fight. He is NOT ANYMORE the GSP he was 10 years ago. He continued to improve his game to become an amazing well rounded fighter and that is why he can stay on top of his sport and still outrageously dominant. Gracie teached us that a grappling game was a must in MMA, GSP showed the world that a well rounded game is what MMA is all about. So haters, please stop bitching about it and just be happy to witness the evolution of a fighter that has changed his sport and that will retire soon.
2- POST SERRA IS A MYTH. I have enough hearing people trying explaining truth #1 by saying it's a post-Serra trauma in the head of GSP. All GSP changed since the Serra fight, as he told himself, is that he will never take a opponent lightly anymore.
After his lost to Serra at UFC69 april 2007, GSP finished 3 out of 5 of his next opponents
UFC74 vs Koscheck: UD
UFC79 vs Hugues: R2 Submission
UFC83 vs Serra: R2 KO/TKO
UFC87 vs Fitch: UD
UFC94 vs Penn: R4 KO/TKO
He started his UD streak at UFC100 in July 2009, like 2 years after the Serra fight... so nothing is related
Again Post Serra never existed, GSP is just passing his prime.
