Again, this is not 3 years ago.
GSP is probably not the GSP you remember.
Also his last couple of wins weren't as dominant as before.
He was on the decline when he retired... imagine the shit state he's in right now.
I agree he probably isn't that great anymore and likely gets starched by Woodley and maybe even Wonderboy but his TDD is still gonna be great and his grappling is really good, he's just a terrible match up for Maia
@TheGrouch is confused because "lucked out" means something good happened to you, you got lucky. GSP coming back is the definition of bad luck for Maia. I think you had the meaning of lucked out confused.Yep, worried and upset because there is a high chance GSP will be the next one for the title shot and Demian ain't getting any younger. Demian was the next one in line. Who knows what will happen. What if Wonderboy wins? Do they do the 3rd fight? Or is it GSP? then what if GSP wins, do they do a 2nd fight? So many possibilities in the mix.
They mean that GSP would get a titleshot while Maia would stand in line getting old... duhPfffff are you insane ?
Maia would fuck GSP up big time.
Maia is game at the moment, old yes, but sharp as fuk.
GSP on the other hand hasn't fought in ages.
GSP would get choked the fuck out easily.
This is not 3 years ago.
For sure. His win streak is overrated as fuck. He has 2 finishes in his last 10 fights and loses the majority of the big fights he's in.
The fact is if he doesn't win a fight quickly , he's boring as shit to watch. Plus he legitimately might have the worst boxing/kickboxing skills in that entire division. I definitely wouldn't mind if he gets passed up.
lol last time Maia faced anyone with even remotely good TDD he got schooled, twice.
If you like sport BJJ.Jacare might as well fight Demian. Battle of the the ignored title challengers.
khabib ferg holloway are LWs and a FW, your argument is invalidHis streak is nowhere near as good as people like Khabib/Ferg/Max were before they got their title shots.
He should fight Lawler.
I pretty much guarentee his non drawing ass ain't getting the next title shot.
what is this crap that you're talking aboutlol last time Maia faced anyone with even remotely good TDD he got schooled, twice.
what is this crap that you're talking about
against rory he badly gassed for some odd reason, and when he wasn't gassed, in the first he COMPLETELY DOMINATED rory
what you're talking about twice? certainly not shields, since the fight was basically on the ground. that only leaves weidman and anderson, and they're fucking MW, for fuck sake (and hundreds of years ago, too)
you said TDD, not grapplingWell he badly gassed because he kept shooting awful takedowns and getting stuffed. The last 2 rounds of that fight were embarrassing by him.
Shields fight was super close but still, those two are the last guys hes faced with good grappling.
Ofcourse it matters whether you're a boring or exciting fighter. That's why the hell he hasn't got the shot yet.
I'm not debating whether it's right or wrong because it clearly isn't right.
So you saying it's all about winning and him being a boring fighter doesn't matter, you're wrong. Being a fun fighter to watch would clearly help his situation.
