How the **** is gsp fourth.Look how flawless his six victories since the serra(1) fight have been all against top opposition.
Since Serra one he has dominated Koscheck, Fitch and Hughes (welterweights) and Serra and Penn (Lightweights). Also Penn and Silva have proved they can win above their weightclass. GSP hasn't, I don't know why you have to get upset I am a HUGE GSP fan, but Penns and Andersons victories have at their weightclass have been just as dominant as GSP's but they have finished everyone. GSP finished Hughes, but couldn't finish Alves, Fitch or Kos.
Stevenson sanchez and florian are not on the same level as Penn Alves and Fitch pound for pound.Silva didn't finish cote and lettuce
Now you're telling me Florian, Sherk, Sanchez and Stevenson aren't on the same level as Kos, Alves and Fitch Ok man, whatever. No but Anderson did stop Henderson/Nate/Franklin/Forrest.
Look man we are arguing over something that can really go either way. IMO Penn/A.S. deserve the 2 and 3 spots for their domination in their weightclass and their wins above it. GSP is amazing, but he has fought 2 lightweights (Serra and Penn), and the top 3 WW's he fought he failed to finish (Hughes doesn't count).
There is a clear group of 4 that are all pretty much equal in Fedor, Anderson, GSP, and BJ (in order of weight) that picking between is really just splitting hairs. If they were all to fight in a world where size was irrelevant I think they would be about equal.
1. Fedor Emelianenko 2. Anderson Silva 3. Georges St. Pierre 4. BJ Penn 5. Gegard Mousasi 6. Jose Aldo 7. Mauricio Rua 8. Lyoto Machida 9. Shinya Aoki 10. Kenny Florian Off the top of the head.
In all honesty GSP A.Silva and Fedor are all interchangeable with BJ in 4th and than there's the rest. I'll give Fedor an edge with clean record.
