Why do people talk about GSP as GOAT when he tapped to strikes against a midget?

[ComfortablyNumb55]

I mean are you serious?

GSP is an all time great, but you can't tap to strikes against a midget and ever be considered as GOAT.

Imagine, as a MAN, you tap to strikes instead of fighting back? The fight only ended because he got scared of being hit. He could've possibly gotten up or reversed position at some point! You keep fighting and see if you can come back.

That is the single most embarrassing thing any top 10 fighter has ever done.

Good to see an original thread on teh dawg.

More embarassing than getting spanked in the octagon?

I'm no Jon Jones fan, but it's a bit harsh to say he's not a top ten fighter.

 

[koa pomaikai]

GSP is a great fighter but he lacks heart in the face of adversity. He didn’t just tap to Serra pounding him, he also ran when things got tough against Hendricks and took his ball home.

GSP doesn’t like challenges.

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

I've never tapped to strikes from a midget, therefore GSP < Me

But let the great GSP explain it to you. The great are great not because they are undefeated, but how they battle back from diversity and avenge their losses

Shogun tapped to strikes vs Jones and we never thought any less of him for it.

You sound about as secure as Strickland at the tail-end of a binger having a moment of clarity at 5am.

 

[Fact Checker]

I can’t believe people actually disrespect Jones by trying to pass him up for a guy with a 100% tap rate on his loss record… two title fight losses, cried uncle in both of them.


GSP can have his nice little WW GOAT title, but if we’re honest he’ll never stack up to Jon GOAT Jones.

 

[rear naked ankle pick]

Nobody sees him as GOAT unironically. Its just to troll people

That was one of the worst robberies that ever happened. GSP's face looked like it got ran over

As much hate as you see for Jones, you would think GSP/Silva/Fedor would be even easier targets. You can post gifs of them getting KO'd. I feel like their plenty of hate to go around, so glad GSP can get his share as well.

 

[Sean Chowdhury]

you have a point, tapping to strikes is crazy to me especially in a title fight and it's not like he was in a crucifix position or anything, he was just getting GNPed. Jones didn't tap to Vitor's armbar

 

[Seekerofhole]

He was distracted by The Terra's incredible sex appeal. It's actually perfectly understandable for anyone who isn't profoundly autistic and asexual.

GSP/Silva/Fedor never hit a pregnant woman with a car, got booked for beating their wife in front of their kids, nor have multiple mugshots of themselves on the internet from numerous arrests and benders.

Generally, overall good human beings don't get hated on as much as scummy people. Which is a good thing.

Why do you assume you know these people? GSP/Silva/Fedor could be far worse human being but nice around cameras. Personally I like all 4 GOAT candidates for their fighting only. I won't pretend I know any of them on a personal level. Not only that but I think you can do shitty things and be forgiven or grow to be a different person.

Since you're a "fact checker" how about you fact check the number of times each guy tested positive for banned substances. Or maybe we should look at eye pokes delivered? Times arrested? Pregnant women harmed?

Or maybe you'd prefer to go away since Zuck fired you anyway?

Conor is a good fighter but he lacks heart in the face of adversity. He didn’t just tap to Diaz pounding him, he also ran when things got tough against Khabib and took his ball home.

Conor doesn’t like challenges.

Fixed that for ya, lass
