Here's the thing.
If you complain about GSP not fighting Anderson but are OK with Anderson not fighting Jones, you have MUCH more respect for GSP than for Anderson. You actually think GSP would have had a shot against Anderson, although you'll never, ever admit it.
Anderson wouldn't have been competitive against Jones. He would have been killed. That's why Anderson fans never pushed for that fight.
Anderson would be a favorite against GSP but GSP would definitely have had a shot.
You really hate GSP, and it blinds you. It's a shame, because he's one of the best fighters we have ever seen. Applying a different standard regarding fighting up the P4P chain is the height of hypocrisy, though, and you know it. Remember, when Shogun said he'd be willing to fight Anderson, Anderson said sure, but it had to be at MW.
