GSP regaining title.

[unfinishable]

True GOATs don't choose who they fight and who they don't.

So choosing to fight the Champ after a long layoff is not what a GOAT should do?
You people just can't be pleased

Georges isn't going to get the title. Too long out of the game. He relied on being the better athlete.

Oh so he wasn't one the highest skilled fighter in the game? It was all athletism? I guess that athletism is enough to beat the best BJJ practitionners and wrestlers.

 

[opponent]

He will

They definitely could. Just stylistically, Tyron is a faster version of prime Johny & GSP is older & potentially rusty now.

tyrone is nowhere near the level pre usada hendricks was imo

 

[fandangler101]

No question... Though he already is.

God damn that would be amazing if he came back & won it. Especially over a horrible match up for him in Woodley.

I don't think the matchup is bad for GSP. Yeah, Woodley is a savage in round 1. But he gets tired very quickly and I think GSP would wear him out to a 5 rd decision.

Look at the significant strikes he took his last three fights post ACL vs. earlier in his career. This isn't even controversial. Yeah, he's very skilled. So are a lot of 40 year olds who can't compete in the lower weight divisions any more.

Agreed. Hendricks was a savage back then, well rounded too and good cardio. Tyron has terrible cardio after R1.

Diaz was drugged

Was he champing at the bit to fight Lawler?

Can't fight a southpaw who nullifies his jab. It's his cryptonite. Same with Rory, to a lesser degree.

Why would he, he had a scheduled fight with Woodley
