It's funny how Silva call GSP a duck even though he did it more than GSP

[Fesaine]

Gsp has only "ducked" 2 fights in his whole career(by his haters logic) one is Anderson and the other one is Whittaker.
Now let's look at anderson "view"

He faced 3 LHWs on short notice, there's that, one of them is the HW champion by the way.

And he is taking the scariest guy atm

pretty sure if gsp was 1-4-1 with multiple drugs fails under his belt and trying hard af to stay relevant at the age of 43 he'd be taking any fight he could to get an instant title shot.

there's a slight difference between being a winner and a multiple ped fail loser.

Its not about salt mate.

GSP prior to his retirement never once showed any interest in going to 185. Keep in mind GSP was the UFC champ before Silva even joined the UFC.

No one was clamoring for him to fight Franklin for the MW strap.

The interest in a superfight was created by Dana White and GSP basically said no at every opportunity. The lead in to UFC 112, GSP finally seemed to have been pressured by Dana to show some interest and he was ringside in Abu Dabi with the intent to step into the ring and challenge Silva.

And then Silva went full retard against Maia and White lost his shit in the post fight conference.

Then Silva damn near lost his belt after getting pummelled by Sonnen for almost 5 rounds.

Meanwhile GSP fought Koschek, Shields, Condit, Diaz and Hendricks during the following span. He fought 5 top 5 prime WW and beat all of them before retiring due to his issues with drug testing.

When he started talking about his comeback (he entered the USADA testing pool in August of 2016). Bisping had just beaten Anderson Silva and Luke Rockhold but no one thought he had a chance against any other legitimate 185 contenders.

The consensus was he would get destroyed by Whittaker, Jacare, Weidman, Rockhold (in a rematch), and of course Romero. Instead he fought once in almost a year and a half against a retiring 47 year old Hendo and should have lost that fight.

Bisping shouldn't have been champ by the time GSP was eligible in the USADA testing pool but his vast ducking skills kept him in place (that and the crappy british judges). By all rights we should have seen GSP take on Hendo if he didn't retire or one of the killers.

No, but he tried his best. Then got whooped on by a one eyed Bisping and had to pull a Mayweather to land a cheap-shot. Except unlike Floyd he still couldn't finish, and also unlike Floyd was losing every minute before said cheap shot and went on to lose practically every minute afterwards. Then Goat St-Pierre comes along and dispatches Bisping before championship rounds <Lmaoo>

 

[suffersystem]

If either guy really wanted that fight, it would ahve happened. Far as I know neither guy actually signed a fight contract to face the other. Most of this has been jabs and talk from teams, UFC itself and both fighters dancing around the final answer. Yes even Silva would jump back in forth depending ont he day and interview.

Whooped by Bisping BTW

 

[mmmjojo]

GSP wanted no part of Silva, Hendricks rematch, Lawler, or Woodley. Glass jaw mid tier MWs and grappling challenged LWs are his preferences now.

 

[Phisher]

1. There was no real prospect of a Shogun fight.

2. There was a real prospect of a Jones/Silva superfight, but Jones didn't want to fight Silva either.

3. That last article is ridiculous. Silva didn't duck Weidman. He was posturing for the GSP fight when he was injured after the Bonnar fight, but he agreed to fight Weidman as soon as he was healthy.

Careful with hypertension, you have a diet high in sodium my friend.


Gsp isn't making goat moves, he needs to challenge himself more.

 

[Sansnom]

Calls out Conor and GSP to fight. Accuses GSP of picking easy fights.

Find the logic.

GSP went up and beat the guy Silva lost to. If that is the easy fight he is refering to, than why did he lose? Lol

Great "sources"

Whooped by Bisping BTW

All the result of aforementioned cheap shot. Bisping beat that ass, get over it. Andy had one moment of significant success over 25 minutes, get over it. And had to exhibit poor sportsmanship in order to achieve that fleeting success.

I don't care for calling any fighters duckers, but pointing to Bonnar and Irvin when he fought them and even Cormier at that stage of his career is not a fair comparison to GSP not fighting Whittaker.
Jon Jones said it best when people can't bringing up superfights to him, they are all trying to protect their reputation at the end of the day.

Bisping spiting out his mouth piece while Silva was pouring it on was the dirty move

It's not Bisping's or Anderson's job to pause the fight

Protect yourself at all times

Im over it, my guy
You brought up the Ping fight
