This officially ends the “Usman is better than GSP” argument

[Midget Boxer]

GSPs loss to Serra was his first title defense

Usman lost to Leon in his 6th

Yall idiots

 

[machidafan99]

GSP just had better competition...Penn, Hughes, Condit etc.........Georges was so well rounded with fantastic striking when needed.

Most of GSPs opponents were one dimensional

 

[pick999]

This was Usman first ufc loss and has some more to spare still

 

[Sparky]

the conversation is silly. Usman is a fine fighter but not the goat

 

[maximus__]

Usman might do the same to Leon.

 

[micentay666]

stopped listening after I saw your join date

explain to me how Khabib is even better than Aldo

Lol who cares about join dates when some of you "insightful mma critics" dedicate your whole lives to what other fighters do if I make maybe 1 or 2 posts how does that make you more credible? How does it feel to get a blue, purple, Brown, black belt up here but never in real life? Gtfoh

And I place Aldo ahead of both in terms of what I view as GOAT guys like him Anderson, Fedor and MM don't care about records but the warrior spirit of fighting and inspiring others who watch this sport. Khabib was a beast but the legacy he left still has question marks and his wins haven't aged well when Olivera is running through the same guys.

Nothing against Khabib but most of his wins you can't even search the guys. In reference to Khabib/GSP/Cejudo there should be another tier of ranking whose the greatest when these guys main focus was keeping their records in tact instead of taking fights anytime no matter the opponent I rank DC ahead of these guys as well

GSP lost to Serra then won the rematch, this will be Usmans Serra moment...with that said I happy as can be that Usman lost.

GSP lost Serra at the start of his kingship. It very different.

They were never in the talks.. The UFC is shameful for treating Georges like that.

 

[Candy Routure]

Usman might do the same to Leon.

You know how this is different.

 

[Natural Order]

GSP and Hughes still greater objectively.

Not to say Usman is done though, if he rebounds and dominates a second phase that would likely be a different story.

 

[jsbx45]

Pretty much.

 

[snugglecakes]

Ya cause Matt Serra is like …. Totally better than Leon huh?

 

[jjresq]

He hasn't had nearly as many title defense, though. GSP beat like six D-1 wrestlers among many others.

With no striking. GSP either fought a wrestler that cant strike or a striker that cant wrestle. The fighters today are more well rounded

 

[Literally Bricked]

leon > serra is all anyone needs to say to continue said argument.. also usman isn't finished yet. he can easily reclaim and hold the belt longer

And Hughes > some dude without a Wiki page.

Georges two division champ.

 

[macaronicaesar]

Prime gsp abuses snoozeman. It wouldn’t even be close.

 

[Haj01]

GSP was even a better wrestler despite no wrestling background.

 

[kenetics]

GSP is just levels above Usman.


The competition argument could be valid but I legitimately think GSP is the greatest Welterweight of all time and is one of my favourite fighters(so I guess I’m biased)

Levels above? No lol. Now that hyperbole.

 

[macaronicaesar]

Usman is better thsn GSP and I do t like Usman.

You don’t know what you’re watching so I don’t care if you don’t like Usman. You’re opinion is null and void for being so blatantly stupid.

 

[You Will Vote For Dreyga]

... The title says it all.

GSP lost to Serra

Usman lost to a TOP contender in a fight he was handily winning

He’s better

 

[You Will Vote For Dreyga]

GSP has never been knocked out sir. Only stopped by the ref and was tapping.... not a KO. Usman on the other hand.... well, has he woken up yet? lol

Tapping to strikes is even more disgraceful then getting KO’d
