Rory Macdonald is better then GSP.

Your nickname suggests you are a phony,
Your posting proves it.
 
Give him a chance to prove it over his next 5 fights
 
You can say you think that he has the package deal to surpasse GSP's accomplishment one day... which is a BOLD statement... but not that he already is better...

that is not funny how people confound their intuitions with actual facts
 
We will see saturday night the probable future WW title holder perform at his best. He has already surpassed GSP in terms of skill. Re-watch the condit fight and tell me who did better.

Rory has as good if not better takedowns (I'd say it's equal) but the thing is, Rory is the bigger stronger guy. He will surpass GSP within the next year if he already hasn't. Look for him to have the best year for 2013.

hahaha... did better than GSP troll? who got their hand raised.. in other news..

In a really odd way....I actually agree.

It's very difficult to explain, because it's mainly subtle and suggestive elements that lead me to agree with you.

Rory / GSP had a similar gameplan against Condit, and GSP just proved to have far better ground control / defense. Outside of that I think Rory showed us a lot in that fight as a young, green athlete. The kid is a beast.

I bet you 100$ that GSP would agree with the TS.
 
Uhm... besides all the above, I'd be curious to know how hard for Rory is the cut at 170.
Now he is 23, but how much longer will he be able to pull it off?
For a long time or he'll go soon at 185?
 
Rory isn't on par with GSP in terms of striking, footwork, controlling distance. I would question his wrestling as well. He hasn't faced the kind of elite wrestlers GSP has.
 
obvious troll is obvious...still gonna bump this thread after rory gets destroyed by BJ
