Yes, there is a difference! It is... a shame!!
Not at all, he was done and unable to defend himself so he tapped out

I like GSP a lot and respect him and he is undoubtedly one of the greats of the sport.
He is also not the GOAT like some argue. The GOAT doesn't get KO'd by Matt fuckin' Serra.

Jeez are you one of these generation z guys who can't read more than 6 pages straight?Are you implying that GSP was natty when he was fighting??!!!!
Are you kid or something?
He's just as natty as Yoel, Jon Jones and rest of the various cheaters.
Part of the allure he maintained especially for those of us who found him boring was the potential of that super fight. Him not just saying no kept hope alive. That troll job in particular I would give it a pass but everything else I stated along with that troll job... I cant get jiggy wit that shitEven though he never came out and said it, it was pretty clear he never had any intention of fighting Silva, which is fine. It's not on him to ever leave his weightclass. As it stands, he defended his belt at all comers, took time off and came back to defeat the mw champ
All of the GOAT candidates have arguments against them. Some have been ko’d/subbed, some have been finished many times, some have been outright flatlined and some have multiple failed PED tests. Guess it depends on what your personal disqualification criteria is?I like GSP a lot and respect him and he is undoubtedly one of the greats of the sport.

The guy in your avi lost to one eyed Bisping, and so did Silva. Yet, GSP put that very same time frame Bisping, to sleep.

There's no shame in that
The guy in your avatar would call you a dumb ass for your opinion.I never claimed the guy in my avi or Bisping is the GOAT lol
I understand what you’re trying to say. But if you’re in the GOAT conversation shouldn’t you be the favorite in every fight? The Serra fight was a huge misstep for GSP, thankfully he avenged that loss.Agreed but, in my opinion, when choosing the best fighter of all time, you don't pick a guy who got KO'd by someone he clearly should have beaten.

I think just about every fighter has a misstep somewhere along the way. Whether it’s a loss that should have never happened or well...
I think it’s did that fighter learn from it and become better afterwards? Just my opinion.
probably because GSP fanboys are still desperately trying to claim him to be GOAT.Silva, Jones, Conor, Diaz and Khabib fans need to learn to respect the achievements of one of the best fighters ever.
Every poster here sounds like a butthurt Koscheck when they mention GSP.
Cant omit the Silva scared to death of Jones part too. It's precisely why he made up the story that he and Jon, someone he can't even have a conversation with were friends.
Aldo scared of LW. Fedor scared of UFC. MM scared of BW.
All ducks. All the alleged GOATs are ducks
I beg to differ. He was caught blatantly cheating vs BJ Penn, but instead of getting punished they let him off the hook and changed the rules so that others couldn't do it afterwards. Come to think of it, they did the same for Jones lol.
I can respect your opinion. I totally get the argument for Jones, I personally can’t get past the is what we are seeing real part. Or did PEDs heavily influence his results in that cage?Of course and I respect GSP and I know he is definitely in the conversation. I'm not shitting on him for losing to Serra - Serra is a professional fighter who trained for that - and GSP did avenge it like you said. IMO the GOAT doesn't lose a fight like that.
In my opinion, Jon Jones is the GOAT performance wise - and I know people don't want to include him in the conversation due to his out-of-the-cage issues/PEDs, etc.
As you said, the entire GOAT conversation is based on personal perspective and opinion.
