GSP trains with the best BJJ team in the world. Khabib won't be ready for his ground game

[HHJ]

It is no excuse to say GSP is 40 years old.. He will be 40 by the Spring..

And all athletes think they got 1 more.

He wouldn't do it if he didnt have it. Gsp ain't stupid. We all know this.

Define "It"

He ain't 28 anymore.. He could think he has "Enough"

They all do.. Ali was getting his head beat in by Holmes at nearly 40..

Gsp ain't ali. Hes been very cold and calculated up til now

Wasn't Dan stuck in an armbar that GSP just wasn't willing to snap off and take home with him?

GSP had an armbar but couldn't finish it because he made a technical mistake, not because he was merciful

 

[Aegon Spengler]

Gsp is no fool. He would not come back if he ain't got it.

Heh you’re gonna be in all these threads aint chya

The athlete is always the last one to know. He’s basically been retired for six years at this stage. He’s no longer in his physical prime, hell he was fighting more with his brain than his great athletic ability six years ago.

GSP took down Bisping and got sliced the fuck up.

Tell your boy to stop running from Gordon, the dude got his leg snapped by Tex Johnson (lol) last year and has been ducking ever since

Felipe Pena = Dennis Hallman of BJJ

gotta be honest your losing lol

When did BJJ ever nullify a strong wrestling game?

And don't come up with Ben Askren please....

randleman and coleman lol

That has mostly to due with wrestlers avoiding the ground and using their superior striking since they seem to learn striking skills quicker on average.

Tired Cain shooting in for a lazy double leg after getting punched in the face for 3 rounds? ok...

Why didn't he use his wrestling earlier to drain and neutralize Werdum then? There's a reason why no one wants to go to the ground with Werdum, it's suicide.

A guy I train with went to New York last year and watched Jake Shields grapple Gordon Ryan

He said it was like watching a black belt vs a guy that had never trained before

Tapped him like 8 times in a 7 minute round

Danaher Death Squad is sick AF.

Yeah, yeah, it ain’t MMA but shite, if people like Ryan Hall’s ground game, DDS is a whole different animal.

* Which means GSP knowns enough to not be compromised in the grappling. But personally, I think his knees are shot and his wrestling is gone, because of age and injuries.

Recent cards, post coronavirus:
Billy Quarantillo def. Spike Carlyle (unanimous decision, 29-28 on all scorecards)
Brandon Royval def. Tim Elliott (arm-triangle choke)
Paul Craig def. Gadzhimurad Antigulov (triangle choke)
Liana Jojua def. Diana Belbiţă (armbar)

Personally , I consider wrestling and grappling two separate skill sets

grappling is a broader term. wrestling is a subset of grappling. unless by grappling you really mean submission grappling, which is a specific sport or ruleset

As much as I hate this fight, I'd still favor Gsp on this one.

 

[herra]

GSP always does half his fight camp in New York with monsters like Garry Tonon, Gordon Ryan, and Nick Rodriguez. All three would have Khabib tapping for his life in 30 seconds

Gordon Ryan said on his Instagram a few months ago that GSP would easily sweep or submit Khabib off his back too, let alone on top.

The GOATs of their respective sports training together is otherworldly

Dana needs to hurry up and book GSP vs Khabib for 155 title so he can take a third belt with ease

...but GSP couldn't even tap out Dan Hardy

 

[YusifAli]

My money on Gsp, for this fight

 

[Gosu]

Even if GSP trains with the GOAT Chimaev, he won't be ready for Khabib

GSP is not the typical retired fighter. He still trains everyday and the guys around him say he’s in the best shape of his life. GSP would never jeopardize his legacy if he wasn’t fully confident of victory. You’re just terrified that khabib will maul him. Iz ok bruddah GSP is big boy
