Comparing GSP and Usman's welterweight win streaks.

[GOATtalks]

Also I forgot Hendricks was on steroids so kinda hard to mimic him under USADA

That’s even worse for your argument. Hendricks is mediocre fighter without roids as his postUSADA record has shown. He was only good on roids, not great

Mmath in all of it's glory!
We need a GSP vs Rose Namajunas comparison. I bet she fought even better opponents!

here is my podcast comparing the two

Yes young evolved new generation talents like....Jorge Masvidal, a guy that was losing to Paul Daley in Shark Fights during GSPs reign.

Masvidal also spent most of his career at Lightweight, much like RDA and Burns, but GSP's haters don't refer to them as bloated up LW's the same way when describing Penn and Serra.

In conclusion, Usman streak is more impressive.

Burns, Rda, Young Edward, Colby, Woodley, Masvidal, Maia >>Hughes, Shield, Koscheck, Condit, and Diaz.

See join date - Prime Hughes and Shields are massively underrated around here.

Except he didn’t. Even if we look at pre USADA Hendricks only 40% of his fights ended by him winning by KO and that only worked against mid level competition and bad strikers like Fitch. He didn’t KO anyone in his 3 title fights and he didn’t KO Condit, Koscheck, Story, Grant etc. So you’re saying he would have a punchers chance, which I can’t deny

Martin Kampamann was a good striker that he destroyed.....Just strange watching tough dudes drop on short punches that don’t look like he has much on them ..... Roided Hendricks would likely be a top 5 ww right now ..... Colby / Usman are terrible matches for him ..... I feel he’d be 50/50 against Burns and have a good chance against Edwards/ Masvidal

I feel the Hendricks that fought Fitch , Kampman , Condit and Gsp was pretty great ....But he didn’t have the discipline to be great over the long haul

I like how this has Leon Edwards as 68 and Matt Serra as 1. Just lol. Another reach from the most sensitive fan base in the sport.



(Matt Serra isn’t even in the UFC if he didn’t win a reality show and brutally finish GSP)

Agreed

Serra got that rank because he'd defeated GSP, who was the champion, what's so difficult about that to understand?

Another reach from the most sensitive fan base in the sport.

I'm not actually a fan of GSP, I just think it's funny how anytime someone says anything remotely positive about him that his haters (or the fans of other fighters who feel threatened by GSP's legacy) immediately get triggered and flood threads like this with the same talking points that have been brought up over the last decade on Sherdog <Lmaoo>.

 

[alex21cms]

Smart move by Georges, by allowing Serra to become champion, he count as a win over a #1 instead of being an unranked W on his resume.

you just roasted the entirety of the gsp fandom

 

[KantoTerror]

The guys that Usman beat...I think they all fall vs. Prime GSP too...can we stop with this? GSP era is done...it's Usman era now...Just like Anderson's era is done and it's Izzy era now at MW...BJ Penn's Era is done and Khabib era just came into an end...we are talking about dominant champions with multiple title defenses here...no need to compare...they all gave us some good fights...

Gilbert Burns beats just about everyone GSP beat
