It's a shame we never got to see GSP vs Chael

[FrankDux]

It's Spring 2012. GSP never tears his ACL. Him and Chael decide to fight at 185. How do you see the fight taking place? Chael is on a 2 fight win streak with wins over Stann and Bisping. GSP is in the middle of his 9 fight win streak. What do you think would have happened?

 

[Versez]

Chael himself told at one of his podcasts that when he sparred with gsp he was very strong physically , I think gsp would had won a decision but it wouldn’t had been a fight based on wrestling.

Who put GSP on his back ?

 

[don't ask]

This isn't a fight I've ever considered and if it had been announced i would not have been enthused. I pick GSP just because he relentlessly pulls out the win and Chael would have triangled himself.

 

[JustBleed69]

GSP would have worked Chael

 

[RageQuitLord]

Chael is an awesome fighter but GSP is a bad matchup for him. GSP always put wrestlers on their back and took them out of their element. I think Chael would have been in a real bad position after he got taken down.

Chanel has told many stories about GSP’s greatness.

He don’t want no smoke with the GOAT.

Not my GOAT sir. Hendo is my GOAT

Chael has many times said that GSP got the better of him…

 

[HockeyBjj]

Why? GSP would jab the shit out of him and wouldn’t even get his face marked up by Chaels pillow fists.

I don’t think Chael could take him down, especially with GSP controlling the range with his jab, and I don’t think GSP would ever look for his own takedown due to success on the feet

 

[HHJ]

GSP is too beautiful and sexy to be defeated at this time.

 

[MMA_AZ]

Out of all the GSP woulda coulda fights this one is pure shit. Who the hell wanted to see this fight... DUMB

Spider... Woodley... Khabib.... Even fat boy Hendricks

 

[StoneColdSteveAustin]

Yeah literally no one was drooling for this fight back in 2012

 

[Grandwizard666]

It'd just be Jones vs Chael extended 5 rounds.
Zero takedowns for Chael but as many as gsp wants on Chael
Likely a jab fest and potential finish for gsp

Just because you have a thought doesn't mean you should start a thread.

You guys are really underestimating Chael and his wrestling. Not only that but Chael is quite a bit bigger than GSP and has probably the best power double in MW history. I'd favor the gangster.

You're oblivious to the fact that Chael regularly talked about GSP tooling him in training.

thats a compliment.. GSP is the better mixed martial artists... but I would be surprised if he doesn't take him down and grind him... I think it looks like Colby vs RDA... Chael would be much bigger and just as good of a wrestler than GSP.

you don't spend much time listening to what chael says if you believe what you just said... he constantly tells his viewers that he would never tell the truth about what happens in the training room because there is a code and that is "between those in the room"..

Who put GSP on his back ?

Everyone who beat him.
