long felt that way about Anderson but in the Alves fight with i was scared for GSP But the way he dominated just left me in awe He's got it all :deal
GSP is definitely the man at his weight class. I would pay good money to see a fight with anderson. If anyone stands with silva its lights out. If i were in GSP shoes i'd go for that fight since there really nothing else for him at his weight level
I think Anderson's range and power would be too much for GSP. Even if GSP went for the takedown, I see him gettin mauled in the clinch. On the other hand is George does get the takedown...........
The only reason GSP in general in ranked below Silva is because of the KO loss to Serra which is fairly recent.
GSP, Anderson Silva, Fedor, and Miguel Torres are all in the top group of pound for pound fighters; seperating them is splitting hairs at best.
GSP is ahead of Anderson. Henderson showed weakness in Anderson, with a better gameplan I think Hendo could do better in the rematch. I'm of the small majority that think GSP is ahead of Fedor currently as well. GSP has NO HOLES in his game, he is the perfect fighter...COMPLETE! He is king of the toughest weight class in MMA (UFC's WW Division) and has cleaned it out. He hasn't even lost a frigg'n round to any of the top contenders!!! The only 30 seconds of any round is when he got clipped in the back of the head by Serra and KO'd as a result.
And BJ Penn is still top 5 P4P, I still have him in my top 4. GSP Fedor Silva Penn Machida Everyone has Machida up there but forget that the pudgy little lightweight hawaiin gave the Lt Heavyweight Champion his toughest fight to date.
Still I'm the only one loving Miguel Torress? On par with GSP, Fedor, and Anderson; better than BJ and Machida.
GSP needs to finish more fights, hes the king of positioning and gameplan I give him that but hes more of a grinder. Hes not as spectacular as Fedor or Silvia or Machida to an extend who can **** you up any given moment of the fight. In saying that he is a great fighter, I would like to see him with a standup fighter with a great TD defense..That guy will come
That guy was Thiago Alves. GSP finishes more fights than Fedor and Machida, and this new version of leg punching Anderson.
****in Anderson Hes really tarnishing his star lately. Alves has improve greatly with his TD defense but I still saw him much on his back a few fights ago, hes more of a guyt thats not hard to take down but hard to keep down due to his immense size at the weight
