Another lie by you.
GSP was focused on his own division during his GOAT WW run as HE SHOULD BE. He was defending against the best of the best WW which HE SHOULD BE.
When Anderson was in that part of his MW run before he cleaned out the division he had no interest in fighting outside MW either. When fights with GSP were suggested Anderson had two standard replies, 'I am happy in my category" or 'that fight does not interest me'. Which was fine and what HE SHOULD BE doing as he was fighting the best MW and defending his belt.
Anderson only changed his tune once he was talking about retirement and had cleaned out MW and then and ONLY THEN did he start entertaining fights outside MW.
GSP being younger and in a deeper division did not get there at the exact same time Anderson did and yet guys like you act like the minute Anderson finally wanted the fight for his legacy GSP had some obligation to move up and fight him instead of Anderson moving down to WW and getting an immediate title shot as Dana said and GSP said he would accept.
Its BS, GSP always had a plan that he stated and that is he would only try himself at MW once he was done with defending at WW as he did not want to risk trying to go up and down in weight and negatively impacting his fights at WW.
So once GSP had retired from WW and the sport and decided to come back his willingness to try himself at MW and LW make perfect sense in that context. He has no obligation to take any more fights at any weight after. NO belts to defend so its the perfect time to experiment.
If Anderson had not lost to Weidman and instead retired with a win and then came back and said I am only interested in two fights, the WW title and the LHW title and I am willing to make weight in both divisions. You would have praised Anderson for being alpha as fuck and instead because its GSP and you cannot put aside your hate you act like this is a negative thing.
Sorry, but I started reading the first two sentences, and it was so full of lies, I just had to ignore the rest.
Both Silva and GSP cleaned up their divisions. The clamour for their fight was exactly because of that.
GSP said he was too small, then he said it would take a full year off just building muscles, then he just flat out dismissed it.
Heck, he even said he was so small, he should make LW instead of MW.
Then he retires.
Then Bisping gest the belt, he (all of a sudden) wants to fight at MW.
Then Dana (foreseeing the duck)
puts in his contract that he would have to defend the title, and so GSP signs it and fights Bisping.
Then he run.
Now, he is moving to LW ignoring and leapfrogging Woodley's division. Because he wants none of that.
I don't particularly mind this move, biut call it for what it is.
GSP only wants to "test" himself on fights that are no test at all.
