When GSP beat Hendricks :

Neither Belfort nor Henderson are close to be as complete as BJ Penn lol
And would Hughes really get drestroyed?
Usman and Khabib bread and butter is rushing people with their wrestling. This is Hughes whole thing.
Yes, the MMA evolved a lot, but I'd say that GSP's reign is the main reason why it evolved that much.
Fighter now try to be like him: Jack Of All Trades, Masters Of None.
Bj Penn was a LW. Even a FW in today's division. As for Usman, his striking is a lot better, he's more powerful and has insane cardio

BJ Penn was still a former WW champion, and motherfucker also fought Lyoto "Karate Kid" Machida at 185 lbs I think. And let's not play that game, because most current/former champions fought "bloated opponents".
Most of Silva's and Jones better wins fought at one point or another in a lighter weight class too.
 
This fight only comes down to the very close first round.

It wouldn't have been a robbery no matter which way it was scored.
 
Round 1 - Draw, Round 2 - Hendricks, Round 3 - Draw, Round 4 - Hendricks, Round 5 - GSP. It's pretty obvious whose side the judges were on.

He actually took that fight against Machida at hw. Bj weighed 185 I think but machida weighed in the 225 range iirc. This is why myself and many others love bj. Its not just the LW run and winning belts. Its because he took open weight fights. While Georges was cutting 30 pounds to fight the matt serras and Ivan menjivars of the world, bj was adding 30 pounds just to compete against machida.

GSP went UP and called out Bisping.
Anderoid Silva called GSP AND McGregor LOL
 
He was terrified to call out the real MWs, but once Bisping became champ he knew it was a winnable fight so cherrypicked it

Bisping is a former LHW with a victory over Silva, just saying.

Do you know who was terrified to call out the champion from the division above?

Anderson Silva.

Jon Jones was A-OK with fighting Silva, but Silva invented some sort of "friendship" that made it impossible to fight his good ol' buddy Jones lol

Silva was a former WW, was it all the steroids that made it impossible for him to go down again?

Calling out smaller fighter without going down yourself is kind of a pussy move btw. If you want the guy, go hunt him in his division.

And calling out McGregor was the cheapest and saddest move I've seen in my life I think.
 
Gsp was the one who fought midgets like Serra, Sherk and LWs like Bj Penn, Trigg etc...

He fought them at WW tho.

But if you want to take that road son, let's talk about Nate the Great, Okami, Maia, Henderson (some of Silva's best wins btw) and Cote who all fought a some point at WW?
