Considering Hendricks couldn't take him down and he got destroyed standing. I pretty much see the same thing happening with GSP. Unable to consistently TD Wonderboy and just being outclassed on the feet. Too accurate,Kicks that MMA fighters don't see that much, too long and hes got pretty good power. His timing man... that too.
 
I think you've been smoking too much.

GSP 50-45
 
great fight to make... id go with GSP though... too many tools.
 
Sound kinda gay there chief..
 
GSP in his prime? Like against Thiago Alves? He would have Thompson on the mat 5 seconds after the bell. Thompson has like a few seconds at the beginning of each round to KO GSP or nap on his back.
 
They are buddies and would never fight. GSP would probably fight Lawler, Hendricks, Woodley, Condit, Diaz or Maia at WW. Or super fights vs Conor, Bisping or Silva. Those are the only fights I see him taking.
 
I think GSP's perfectly timed TD's will win him the fight. 50-45 or GSP sub.
 
Yes. Not that hard to hit GSP these days, considering how bad he looked after his fights with Condit, Nick and Hendricks.
 
I think you smoke something else

And then you woke up, and realized GSP mixes it up way too well for Wonderboy. He actually has a striking background(unlike Hendricks), and wrestling on par, or better than Hendricks, with the ability to mix the two seamlessly. Wonderboy gets manhandled in a fight with GSP.
 
Yea... The Hendricks that fought GSP isn't the same guy that fought Thompson. Literally I don't think it was the same guy a stunt double of sorts perhaps, a slower deflated stunt double almost like something special was missing...
 
If sonnen is being honest when he said GSP got the better of him in wrestling then I have to favor GSP in a contest against Wonderboy despite his training with Weidman.

Fighters looking like shells of themselves post USADA ey?
 
Hendricks isn't very marketable anymore .. especially after USADA came in .. He didn't even look like he tried that hard ..

I personally think a lot of guys cash in on these type of things .. Once your on the downhill its all about making as much $$ as possible ..



Hendricks bet 300,000 on Thompson .. you tell me who really won on that one :rolleyes:
