Would GSP have fought Whittaker if he didn’t have colitis?

[Dozer .]

I vote no.

What’s the consensus?

 

[KingBeef]

Nope. He knew better.

 

[joeyjoejoe]

No money in getting your ass kicked by a young lion, I vote no lol.

 

[OmegaRugal]

Not a chance in hell.

 

[pride_is_back]

He does seem scared but i don't know.

All I know is that is something that Fedor will never do. He will fight anyone at any weight and at anytime. Now, that's a true legend right there.

 

[007]

Not a chance

Agreed
Fedor will fight anyone at any weight, no doubt about it

Fedor, all washed up and aged 41, just fought big ass Mitrione and is about to fight big ass Mir who both outweigh him by over 20 pounds lol

This thread again? Why not just bump one of the other dozen or so threads on this? Do you need to feel special little guy?

 

[pookiyama]

Someone's Canadian

Hell no he wouldn't. He wouldnt take the Anderson match when he and his coaches believed he had the style advantage.

No chance in hell he fights a fast heavy handed boxer with takedown defense.

 

[JackSchtotll]

nope....

There was a clause in his contract for a reason....

 

[Fatal Catro]

Hell no, giving him the title shot was a ridiculous move.

F*ck no. He’s not taking risks.

 

[BRaVo cHoKe]

Doubtful. GSP saw a good payday and he took it and ran.

 

[JayJayFrench]

I love GSP, but no.

 

[90 50]

Yes, he said numerous times his next fight was Whitaker when asked what’s next after bisping.

He said right now I’m focused on bisping but if I win I have to fight Whitaker next, and then after that we’ll see

GSP has always been an honorable person, to suggest he wouldn’t is completely out of character for him.

Who did he ever duck before in his weight class, belt or not? No one, ever.

 

[21 Savage]

Yes, Robert is similar in size.

 

[Treeloy]

People will say no but te reality is yes that was him and his coaches plan

Nobody plans for the ass aids.

It had been bothering him for a while I suspect. There are earlier pictures of him(like the pool side one) where he looks huge and cut, suspect he had started dropping weight unexplainably and started eating everything onnthe planet which made it worse.

We’ll see what size he is when he’s better, he might still try and fight Whitaker at 170 size and just only cut a few pounds.
