Bisping vs GSP Height and Reach (stats inside)

i don't like this fight for GSP. in addition to the size disadvantage, bisping's TDD is good. and his striking style will give GSP trouble, the jab isn't going to get it done. don't really know how GSP wins this fight. he's better off coming back and taking on woodley / thompson winner.

Who really knows with the stats the UFC releases we all remember Shane Carwin's incredible height cutting. Wiki say's 6'1", Sherdog say's 6'2" a random sherdog thread claims he is 5'11" lol.

I'm 5'11" barefoot so I'd put Carwin at a legit 6'1".

better fighter overall. But he's also 3 years retired with a string of injuries.

yes it might not matter at all who is "better" overall. I mean,roy nelson koed nogueria and scuab koed mirko.

You are a pretty big and jacked 5'11, are you a HW or LHW?

Haha, yeah luckily I did not have to fight him cause that would NOT go well for me. I'd realistically have to fight at 185. I'm probably 205-210 in that pic.

Wow, you look bigger with your giant arms lol.
 
Bisping is 6'1 not 6'2.

3 inch height advantage is nonsense when it comes to fighting.

This is MMA,
Not NBA.
 
Size wont matter if St Pierre still has his riddum.

Bisping is closer to 6'1 IMO, he's more than an inch shorter than Luke and he's shorter than Andy there (exaggerated by angle probably, but still).

I think he's only 6'0 or 6'0.5. Anderson seems like a legit 6'2 and Luke is a legit 6'3.

Maybe you should watch a GSP fight before commenting.


Er, no. No it doesn't.


And Bisping is 38 (older than GSP), has had more fights in his career and more in the UFC, has lost more fights, has permanent eye damage...

I think I see the problem here. You're a GSP hater who would favor just about anyone on the roster over GSP since you're of the opinion that wanting something badly enough will make it happen. I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this, but that's not how the world works.

Betting odds are almost even. GSP is a very slight favorite.
 
Bisping will have a good 5 inch advantage on GSP but height does not always matter. bisping is a better boxer and has a significant advantage in striking. I dont see how GSP wins unless he takes him down and keeps him there but Bisping will be the biggest guy he has fought who happens to have the best striking too. Why bisping is so underappreciated is beyond me.
 
Gsp is, "well-built" indeed. Can you guess why??
 
Bisping is nowhere near 6'2. Look at him next to Luke.

I actually think GSP has the striking advantage but we will see. Bisping looked awful against Henderson. I thought he looked bad against Rockhold 2 but he knocked him out cold.

We will find out. How often are we correct when we speculate? Who called Bisping coming back from a knockout to beat Silva? Who said GSP would beat Koscheck standing up?
