Gsp arguably has the greatest boxing in MMA history

Sure but he won, I mean I scored it 3-2 GSP, the judges did a lot of people did. He easily could have lost the decision but I think the facial bruising and cuts is mostly what make people emotional about it. Every great had decisions people felt they lost regardless of where you fall on the spectrum. Khabib lost to Tibau. Jones to Gus, Reyes and Santos. Mighty Mouse lost to Miguel Torres. Floyd lost to Oscar and Castillo. Canelo lost to GGG and Lara etc etc. All popular opinions by a significant minority or even majority of fans, media and members of the sport.

Like some of the others said, the threat of the takedown amplified his boxing proficiency greatly. Remove that and his boxing would be much less effective.
