GSP has more humility than probably anyone in mma.GSP doesn't even believe your own ranking : "In terms of accomplishments, it is different. I have done stuff that I believe he didn't do yet... But as painful as it could be for any athlete to admit it, the athletes of today are normally better than the athletes of yesterday. And as good as the athletes of today are, the athletes of tomorrow will be better. That's how it is. I don't think the guys are better, I think the technology is better..."
'The athletes of today are normally better than the athletes of yesterday' - Georges St-Pierre on Kamaru Usman's welterweight GOAT claim
MMA great Georges St-Pierre credits Kamaru Usman for raising the bar in the UFC's welterweight division.www.sportskeeda.com
Not to mention he's still doing damage control : he would be undersized for current WWs, no matter the so-called technology + he fought much weaker competition because MMA wasn't as widespread and developped as today.
Yes, Matt was very dominate in his time. I think his lack of striking would've hurt in today's times though. Still, he should be ahead of everyone except GSP imo. And fuck Dana calling Usman the ww goat, it's always the flavor of the month with that guy (thickens his pockets).Matt Hughes.

#FREE Stoned Lemur. WTF Mods?Can't have @StonedLemur but we have this fucking dude shitposting 24/7
His run will never be bested because the division will never be that weak. GSP left right on time. The game evolved. Hughes wouldn’t sniff top 10 with his skillset. Imagine Dan Hardy a top 10 fighter. Imagine how bad LW Penn would be battered? GSP literally beat not a single fighter that has a skill set comparable to modern mma. Condit was the closest thing and he won but it was nothing spectacularLove Usman, but he sure as shit ain't better than arguably the greatest martial artist of all time in GSP
Usman can be debated as #2 against Matt Hughes, but it's as far as it goes for him
GSP reign supreme at the top of the division and honestly, I don't see when his run will be bested
LMFAO, GSP is #1 dude. By far.Who do you rank as the 3rd best between Leon and Woodley.
Guys around Dan Hardy's level still break into the top 10. Heck, Jorge Masivdal broke into the top 5.His run will never be bested because the division will never be that weak. GSP left right on time. The game evolved. Hughes wouldn’t sniff top 10 with his skillset. Imagine Dan Hardy a top 10 fighter. Imagine how bad LW Penn would be battered?

Yup. Sort of like asking if you’re going to stop beating your wife tomorrow, it’s a question that’s intentionally loaded with a false statement such that there’s no good way to answer the question while refuting the inaccurate part.thinly veiled troll thread whose only real purpose is to sneak in the 'usman #1' thing, like it's some understood fact.
