Prime GSP would be a 3 division champ right now

Maybe two at WW and LW but no way he goes up. Dude was petrified at the idea of squaring up with Anderson.
 
Takes Islam and Edwards to a decision and possibly finishes Pereira on the ground
Actually 4 division champ, including LHW

GSP is the GOAT, but 3 divisions? Not a chance.
 
Prime GSP never makes 155. He was lean at 190-195 (his walking around weight). All the "it would be easier for Georges to make LW than fight at MW" talk from Firas was a thinly veiled excuse to not fight Anderson. And I actually like GSP.

Yes, prime GSP would make Leon look like easy work. But Poatan is likely too big and would send GSP to the shadow realm. The problem is that GSP wasn't a great finisher, and with every round starting on the feet, that gives Poatan 5 opportunities to land the kill-shot. That's more than enough.

Silva at the time, was on a 18 fight win streak, and considered perhaps the greatest striker in MMA history. A little different than facing Peiriera, who would never stop GSP takedowns. Peireira is no joke though. He'd have a chance with his power, but he wouldn't be near as dangerous as Spider.
 
He'd never make 155 in a healthy fighting condition.
Could def see him with WW and MW straps if he theoretically played his cards correctly.
