2017 THREAD: Georges St. Pierre vs. Michael Bisping For MW Title Announced; Date TBA (Poll)

[Hfxtc]

All true, but he who has the gold makes the rules and nowhere is this more true than the fight business.

They can probably fill a stadium in the UK or Canada with that fight.

 

[BryanTheFighter]

Hendricks has a 69" reach, is a wrestler and lit GSP up... not sure where you're going with this.

How would you advice GSP to gameplan considering Bisping is tall with a difficult reach?

 

[HeDucking]

I guarantee if Yoel or Jacare were champion, he would not wanna fight for the title.

 

[MayhemMonkey]

ahahaha all the Romero fanboys can eat a dick

its the money fight next for Bisping

 

[Deleted member 220895]

Romero can sit this one out a little longer just like he does in between rounds.

 

[fandangler101]

The UFC's credibility just evaporated like the mist on a spring morning.

23 years and 4 billion dollars. And countless fans.

I'm done. The UFC doesn't deserve my support.

You will still tune into every event.

 

[The bad boy]

Yeah, he shouldve stuck around til he lost 5 straight and got busted for boner pills.

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

He thinks Bisping is a winnable fight. If he beats Bisping, he'd probably vacate the title so he wouldn't have to fight Jacare or Yoel. I hope this blows up in his face bigtime. Such a selfish move that is going to turn him into a heel to most fans that care about the sport.

I hope you are wrong, but your reasoning seems right.

 

[Ananth]

Facts. Not to mention all the excuses he gave in regards to the Anderson superfight while they were both on top. Laughable to think this guy is the GOAT.

Hes not going to fight again win or lose. What a fraud. Waited for the right match up in retirement.

 

[ineverpost]

Georges taking this fight because Bisping is pillowfisted. I expect Bisping to win, he is great at dealing with take downs. Won't fight Tyrone because he knows he will suffer brain damage.

 

[phunky]

He gets destroyed by all of them

 

[Fuzzybabyducks]

so his title defenses will be against an old man who was about to retire and a guy who has been retired for years..

 

[209 Life]

Bisping ducking yoel hard

 

[FlyingKimurabar]

If he wins he defends against Silva. UFC belts are a farce.

All those guys destroy GSP brutally. I'm guessing GSP would vacate the belt before fighting any of them honestly.

 

[HeDucking]

I hope you are wrong, but your reasoning seems right.

Anyone wanna bet GSP drops the belt if he wins?

 

[theskza]

All this because Luke Rockhold couldn't mop the floor like he was supposed to.

Fuck it, blame Weidman, too. Dude gets injured all the damn time.

 

[Davem10]

So, i read that GSP needs to go a minimum of 4 months of USADA testing so wouldnt be fighting until the back end of the year

So why on earth is Bisping allowed to sit on the belt all that time, make him fight Yoel

Its actually quite clear why. George would get destroyed by Yoel, but has a chance to beat Bisping and two division champion GSP would be unbelievably marketable

Its a shame this is the way the "sport" has gone

 

[PokerMage]

Meh i dont like this fight and im a GSP fan

Could he win yeah but ugly grinding affair and frankly Bisping doesnt get the respect he deserves and will by far larger then GSP with solid fundamentals and a better pair of wheels.

Im a GSP fan but realisticly unless GSP has turned himself into a Submission machine and can finish Micheal on the ground in the 1st/2nd round when gets him down then well i honestly dont think GSP can finish Bisping standing or win a decision.

Micheal is just to active and honestly his jab is almost as good as GSP's and he is just bigger and longer and hits harder. Hits harder then Serra ever could.

and if he isnt gonna defend the title i really dont like this fight. Anderson?!? is that what there hoping for?

i would have rather seen GSP go down to 155 and fight Conor.

fuck the mess it makes of the MW division also. thou have to say the Moose vs GSP would be a fun fight. Romero,Rockhold,Jacare thou i think could seriously fuck GSP up worse then he is willing to risk. Those fights i dont think ever get made i just dont see the money ever being high enough to make his sign those fights.

Ill be Cheering for GSP no doubt about it but atm im heavily leaning towards Bisping

 

[M Raid K]

Absolute fallacy. I have no interest in watching GSP get an undeserved title shot to further stall MW championship.

 

[tjumper78]

lol, i can see bisping dancing in joy somewhere.
