Gsp talks about wanting a fight that would be legacy defining fight, but who can he actually fight that doesn’t make him look bad? Let’s break down his list of opponents that would be a superfight.

Woodley - The words Woodley and superfight go together like peanut butter and elmer’s glue...

Conor McGregor - Canada vs Ireland would probably be the biggest PPV #’s possible out of anyone on the roster. Gsp said he’s not interested. What to make of this? Fans of GSP say its not a challange but then again they say he won vs Hendricks too. Gsp obviously does not feel like he can beat McGregor.

185 championship -Romero/Whittaker uhh yeah.. good luck lmaoo

Khabib - after he gets 26-0 khabib will be champ of 155. What could he more alluring than fighting an undefeated champion for your 3rd weight class belt? At this point does GSP have the cardio to fight a machine like Khabib? How many tds could he stuff? People might say Gsp keeps it standing and jabs khabib to death, but we don’t know what a 155 weight cut might do to him. I would favor Khabib 70/30 simply because Khabib outclasses GSP. This isnt your average single and double leg TDs we talking about.

He'd earn more respect getting smashed by Romero than by toying Conor McGregor.
 
Anyone who doesn't have a significant weight advantage on him. It's Georges St-Pierre we're talking about, ffs.
 
Basically you created a post to try and talk down GSP as you've basically given him no chance against anyone.

I'd favor GSP against Conor/Khabib/Woodley and Whittaker/Romero I would be 50/50.
 
GSP is bigger than Khabib and would likely be able to neutralize him.

Based on GSP's conditions, there's no one really for him to fight.

He's not going back to 185. He could probably defeat Woodley. A lightweight fight? Doesnt make sense.

Askren? Not a real chance.

I think Georges is retired.
 
He should fight Woodley. Woodley might no bring in the PPV buys, but GSP does, and a fight with those 2 would be a good seller. And if GSP won, it would leave the door open to fights with guys like Thompson or Dos Anjos, who GSP could probably still take down and beat.

Not sure whats that logic. "If you go in there and proceed to get smashed by a guy twice your size, only then you will get earn respect!" Like GSP cares about being respected by his haters. The simple fact that the only way he could earn your "respect" is to get smashed is pathetic.
 
Kenny here,

I think he is scared to fight conor. Lol. GSP is so much bigger than conor but is still afraid of getting knocked out. I think GSP is a great martial artist but everyone is so scared of conor. He is almost the perfect martial artist. Show of his skills is enough to avoid conflict.
 
Conor for sure, lightweight with shitty cardio and shitty ground game.

Nate, see Nick fight
 
GSP mauls Conor and beats Khabib in a competitive fight. I don't like his chances against T Wood and middleweights tho. Btw, 48-47 GSP against Hendricks.
 
Your right GSP the guy who beat every oponent he's ever fought. Who can he beat :D probably nobody all of mma makes him look bad.
Stupid title.

Actually, he is very unhappy with your behaviour on sherdog.

My thoughts are that this thread is terrible.

I try not to bitch about white belts, but this is a classic white belt thread. If you honestly think GSP "obviously does not feel like he can he beat McGregor" then you know absolutely nothing about GSP, or MMA.

Please refrain from starting threads about things you know nothing about. GSP would absolutely murder McGregor, and he knows it. Everyone knows it. McGregor knows it.
