I don't see anything GSP did that I can't do. It's not like watching the NBA and the guys are all 6'10. I'm healthy, I'm around the same height..

His 'incredible athleticism'? Pfft, if I trained really hard, I could match his strength and speed.

I've neared his vertical (much easier when you're short like me or GSP than when you're carrying an extra 60 lbs at 6'4" just from bone and organ mass), which is supposedly the hardest thing he has to match. And I'm considered a nerd. His athletic stuff numbers are good but any one of them are achievable for any of us.

But he's way better than I, or you, or anyone reading this, will ever be. He's 5'10, a bit muscular, and can jump pretty high. That's not out of this world.

What separates GSP from other people?
 
PEDS or fight fixing its true it doesn't make any sense.
 
One thing i Respect about Canadians is their humility
 
Skill, attitude. One of the few quintessential warriors. Seems like a nice guy too.
 
Good guy, but to answer your question more specifically when inside the octagon - ability to consistently lay and pray without himself falling asleep
 
Not on the level of Silva/ Fedor/ Jones, but he's a hard worker and a good athlete.
 
A neurotic drive to be better than he was the day before. He was fixated to the point that he'd have nightmares if he failed to hit a goal.

The difference is that you spend your time writing click-bait posts like this whilst GSP trains like a machine, out in the real world.

Straight from his bio: "I've trained myself to fight an army, so one guy will not defeat me."

you should ask bisping
 
grease
riddum
full sized midget friends
Giant musclehead friends
begging for title shots
excellent at imitating kermit the frog

...
 
Fight IQ and work ethic...unlike most, GSP sacrificed almost everything to always be one step ahead of competition.
Always came with perfect gameplan and stuck to it.

Then do it.

Protip: You couldn't. This post is the epitome of keyboard warrior. If "anyone" could do it, as you claim, then why don't the vast majority of WW's have anywhere near GSP's athleticism? After all, they train really fucking hard, have professionals helping them with their diet/training program, etc.
 
Discipline, respect and humility.
Beat everyone he has ever faced. His reign as champion, and a belt in a higher weight class. (Yes, I know, Bisping sucks)
 
Holy shit, this is some extra special, mentally challenged shit right here...
