Why GSP is still the undisputed GOAT

[Necrotic]

You nailed it.

"Your GOAT."

There is no GOAT. All personal preference.

But GSP still cherry-picked Bisping then ran for the hills.

Everyone knows why.

He was better off just staying retired.

Yes, of course GOAT is subjective. I'm just trying to provide actual data to back up my opinion. Where is yours? Doesn't matter if he cherry-picked Bisping if the Jones nut-huggers say PEDs don't matter, the Khabib nut-huggers say his padded record doesn't matter, etc.

Great post. I’m a fan of Jones. I’m a mega fan of GSP

GSP when it comes to everything that you take into account. The fighting resume, outside the octagon, just a representative of the sport. He’s always going to rank incredibly high on any list. And rightfully so.

 

[Necrotic]

Kinda hard to call him the goat when he has 2 losses he avenged when they're are a few guys that have never legitimately lost

I see your point, but I raise you my other 9 I made in the thread. GOAT isn't about one aspect (MMA record), but should be an all-encompassing title. Just my opinion there, of course.

So you don't hold yourself to a higher standard than the Jones/Khabib nut-huggers?

True sack-lover confirmed.

 

[Necrotic]

The Goat just doesn’t tap to strikes from a bloated lightweight.

Mistakes were made, the loss avenged, and a comeback story is great for a GOAT. Next.

 

[Necrotic]

GSP was excellent but he tapped to strikes to a lightweight. No GOAT does that regardless of what happens later.

Even after he destroys a middleweight? Ok dude.

 

[manc***]

Khabib > GSP.

Khabib didn't lose to Matt Serra, a guido can.

 

[Post 2 Decision]

GSP
Jones*
Fedor

The 3 GOATs

Jones fucked himself with PEDs though so I don't count him, but if we want to say everyone is on roids or pretend Jon never tested positive he needs to be on the list and maybe #1 over GSP

The first thing I said in the post was that I was a GSP nut-hugger, did you not read? And so far I've also provided more objective data than you as far as why I think GSP is the GOAT. Still haven't heard your actual opinion.

 

[Dana's Moonface]

Not natty

TAPPED to strikes vs blown up fw/lw

Cheated to beat lw bj

Decision making machine, couldn't finish his dinner let alone an opponent

Lost against hendricks, but got lucky with decision. Tucked tail and ran away from mma

Would only come back to fight one eyed, tailor made champion in bisping

Ran away from defending belt

Afraid to fight khabib when it comes down to it

Oh, notice he would never dare try usman at ww, wants smaller prey

No goat

Silva or Jones goat and khabib is tbe

Guess neither one of us read very well because I gave my opinion in the first reply.

Also he got his ass beat by Captain America and ran like a bitch.

Khabib > GSP.

Khabib didn't lose to Matt Serra, a guido can.

A loss that was brutually avenged afterward? Ok homie.

 

[AmericanUppercut]

Agree GSP=GOAT
Easy.
Forget jones, too much crap to know if he was legit.

Also we will all miss Khabib.
Khabib was amazing grappler:
He won the title from Al Iaquinta...
and then submitted
3 great strikers in a row.
Thanks for showing the strikers who is boss.
I am glad Khabib can enjoy a great moment of joy in his life and can be happy.

 

[Dana's Moonface]

GSP is a slick fighter no doubt

Spoiler

Dirty steroid using grease ball

 

[Barteh]

There is no "undisputed" in this discussion. Also your arguments are absolutely terrible.

 

[TheMessiah]

Tapped to strikes against 5'2 Journeyman Serra, used Vaseline to cheat, ran from the sport after Hendricks re-arranged his face and had 1 fight post usada

 

[Necrotic]

Khabib's also lucky to be in a division full of strikers, have him fight someone he can't takedown (LW versions of prime Hendricks / Kos), see how dominant he looks then. Everytime he's forced to stand with someone he looks average compared to the other GOATs.

Very true. #11 for GSP.

Are you saying that Georges isn't a Pimp?

 

[Necrotic]

3 wins against Hughes and Serra who he got finished by. So five of his 28 total fights against those guys.

Meanwhile Fedor went 31-0 against roided heavyweights. Once again, am I taking crazy pills? Please someone explain this!

Fedor will always be #3 in my heart, followed closely by DJ at #4. Khabib #2.

GSP was excellent but he tapped to strikes to a lightweight. No GOAT does that regardless of what happens later.

If you think Matt Serra then or now could have made 155 you are a fool. He was a WW when he fought George and a WW for his previous 4 wins and WW for his later fights.

GSP tapped to strikes against a professional fighter after being stunned twice on the feet successively and ground and pounded in mount...big deal. If anything it makes him smart, and his earlier and later performances proved he is not a pussy.

Your argument is dead.
