lol @ bringing up the fitch fight i said "recent" not 3 years ago...



No one in that weight class will beat GSP it's patheitc that he's having to fight Kos again...I could see if he at least brought some competition in the last fight.

After this they need to seriously look at moving GSP up or having him fight Anderson Silva.

team koscheck was indeed an embarrassment.

Because I don't pay to watch a lay n pray or wall n stall match. People try to say that with he goes for sub attempts, but really he goes for like 10 the entire fight. He should be going for way more considering he spends 90% fight on the ground or at least be smashing their faces in. For example, look at Jon jones and what he does to people when he gets them down or someone like Joe Lauzon whos constantly looking submissions, going from position to position looking for ways to finish when he gets someone down.

3 out of GSP's last 4 fights went to decision. That 1 that wasn't was against BJ which was on pace to be a decision, but his corner threw in the towel.

although i kinda agree.... i dont think its boring... i think other fighters are stupid... if the guy is gonna take u down... pass... side control then kimura EVERY fight..... make a diff game plan lol.... GSP is smashing these guys with normal technique and strength... why dont his opponents focus on ground game and strength training? everyone wants to go in there and punch his head off but its kinda hard to do when hes drilling u in the ground everytime u throw a punch

I don't understand why more fighters don't put the pressure on him and try to take him down? I think fighters have already lost that aspect of the fight before they've even entered the fight. Everyone is so concerned with his shot, but why not make him worry about the take down?? And trust me, I know GSP's tdd is solid, but you need to put that thought in his mind to open up the striking. This is exactly what I hope Kos does tomorrow. Come out aggressive, mixing it up throwing his overhand right and shooting in.

Like I said 3 of his last 4 fights have gone to boring ass decisions and the only one that didn't was on it's way to being a decision. Everyone has highlights so posting gifs and highlight videos are not good ways to discredit my argument.


Just be real and admit he fights safe because he will be the first one to tell you he does.

I like fighters like Wand, Chuck, BJ, Cain, Nog bros, Shogun, etc. Fighters who go in the cage and leave it all in there.
