It's hard to argue that Georges St-Pierre isn't the WW GOAT - he's a legend in the sport for a reason. But let's talk about the newer guys and who could potentially give GSP a run for his money.
I mean, Usman is good and all, but he's kinda robotic in his movements, and he ain't gonna out-wrestle GSP. Let's be real, GSP would just jab him all day long and take the decision without breaking a sweat. Maybe I'm sleeping on Usman cause he looked so slow against Leon last night.
Now, Woodley's a different story. Guy had some serious power back in his prime and could explode at any moment. I could see him hurting GSP at some point, but I still think GSP would tough it out and win by decision.
But you know who's really underrated in my opinion? Robbie Lawler. That dude just gets stronger and stronger the more you hit him. Remember how Rory MacDonald just couldn't put him away and it only made Robbie even more dangerous in the 4th and 5th rounds? I think those rounds would be a real problem for GSP because Robbie just keeps coming forward. I'd even go as far as saying Robbie would be the toughest fight for 2011-2014 GSP.
Anyway, that's just my two cents. I don't see anyone else giving GSP a hard time, to be honest.
