How does GSP have a better resume than Anderson Silva?

[redblue**]

What is GSp's best win? Matt Hughes, Fitch? that it?

Then he's faced a bunch of 155'ers in Penn, Sherk, Serra(got ko'd by one)..

One dimensional fighters with no TDD like Alves, Hardy, COndit or bad striking like Koschek and Shields..

I'm sorry, but those guys are not better than any of Silva's opponents.

I'm really glad someone is finally addressing this issue.

It's hard to compare resumes of fighters in two different divisions unless there's mutual opponents.

That's why I am baffled when GSP fans claim GSP has a definitively better resume than Anderson

 

[SerrabyTKO]

Don't you know!?! He be JOSH KOSCHECK.

TWICE.

and JOHN FITCH.

Those guys are WORLD BEATERS.


Seriously though. GSP and Anderson's Resumes are pretty even at the top, but GSP's worst opponents are better than Anderson's worst opponents.

Did you invent a position/argument, then argue against it?

 

[m0353]

Their resumes are not that different

Silva got beat too by a smaller fighter... In fact I think it was even of the Flying type..... Lets try to discredit all fighters for there losses and wins.... Ya fight who is put in front of you, clown. These guys did not pick who they fought.

I do know this his resume is a whole hell of a lot better than Silva was at his age; but will it be better in the end? Who knows.

While what you say is true that doesn't mean that one hasn't had tougher fights than the other.

I don't appreciate you discrediting condit like that. Not cool bro..

how many times did he get beat in the ufc? just curious...

They have both had hard fights and some easy ones and even some they both should have won... Why do we always have to check and see who's nuts are bigger.... Lets play who has the biggest dong next....

He doesn't have a lot of inconsistencies outside fighting, No offense to Andy but there's a time when he lost his mind and clown his opponent in fights and weigh-ins, and on the other side you see him in tears and get emotional when a friend/teamate(Big Nog) won a fight. That made fans wonder what's wrong with him. You won't see that kind of stuff in GSP's resume

Ok.... So losing to a worse fighter in another org is somehow different? Was UFC the top dog at that time world wide? No! What point are you trying to make?

yeah, gsp on the other hand is a stone cold LIAR

supposedly he was mocing up to 185lbs at one point, but he didn't

he says anderson weighs 234lbs which is flat out lie

and even if he did, gsp knows that number is irrelevant when it comes to fight time weight, but he keeps spreading misinformation on purpose to make his nuthuggers think anserson does in fact weigh 234lbs when he fights (which sadly is working)

how long ago was that? why don't you start bringing up fighter's amateur records too while you're at it? since they are losing to a worse fighter in another org, douche.

anderson beat chael twice and chael would wrestle gsp to death. the spiders had much harder competion franklin, forrest, chael, okami, , vitor, hendo. nate the great. PLEASE

 

[SuperNerd]

GSP by elbow drop

 

[GrindingANARCHY]

Gsp - Penn 2x, Hughes 2x, Fitch, Condit & Shields.

Anderson - Hendo, Belfort, Franklin 2x, Griffin & Sonnen 2x

Anderson's resume is better in my opinion.

Beating Penn at ww is not that impressive considering the fact that he had at least a 15lbs advantage and BJ's record at ww is not very good.

Says a lot about the weakness of the WW division when a guy from a weight class below is able to beat the champion of the division above.

HW was also a weak division and that's how couture was able to become HW champ.
