Man when they stood next to eachother Brock dwafted him.. But i guess brock was wearing shoes and suit..But **** he looked heaps bigger. But hey it all comes down to who lands the lethal punch/gnp in my opinion. Both have crazy power.
I agree with you, Stoo, big Dan was crap. He broke them up, on more than one occasion, when both were active (FFS Dan, the guys aren't lightweights) and he was late with his final intervention. When it is a guy like Carwin hitting a defenceless fighter, the ref should be straight in there!! x2!!
This is just being a hater; considering GSP only fights #1 contenders, he obviously isn't going to destroy everybody in quick finishes. The only fights that have even resembled Lay and Pray were the first BJ fight where he was injured in the first round and a little afraid of BJ, and the Koscheck fight which was right after he got KO'd. He had the gameplan to outwrestle Koscheck, and to do that he had to be pretty cautious or else he would end up on his back. In his decisions against Alves and Fitch he put on two absolutely clinical beatings, anything but LnP. It is just an excuse by people like Serra and Hardy who's only chance to beat GSP is for him to willingly stand in front of them so they can throw haymakers.
Man some tense moments for Hardy.Though he is doing better then i expected to survive the 1st round.. **** HE ESCAPED THE ARM BAR.
I hate to say this but GSP is quite possibly the most boring champion to watch ever. Hes great and all but this aint my cup of tea.
Complete clinic. As expected. Anyone else think that GSP didn't torque on the armbar? Kinda let it a bit loose and not wanted to break it? Keep the position, but not pull it 100%?
Hardy....it's unfathomable that he'd be able to escape the arm bar and the Kamura. Anybody here believe that?
Congrats to GSP on another dominant win. The man controlled the fight and was never in trouble. It looked like man against boy for most of the fight. Saying that though, as a brit i am proud of Dan Hardy, the man did all he could, and how the **** he didn't tap only he knows. Even GSP was thinking what the **** do i have to do to put this guy away. When he went to Hardy and pointed at his arm at the end as if to say what the **** man and hardy just muttured something about it all being mental it put a smile on my face. Congrats again to both guys, it wasn't the best fight from a fans point if view but hardy has earned a shitload of respect tonight.
Hard to believe, it kind of makes GSP look bad, borderline between a guy who would refuse to tap, and a guy who is good at escapes.. I think Hardy, just lives up to his name.. Guy is tough as hell, all credit to him. Credit to GSP as well, the guy is incredibly dominant, and was actively seeking submissions, seemed dominant in every aspect of the fight.. That was a clinic. At least, we can stop talking about Mir vs. Fedor, how Mir is a world class striker and the best BJJ guy in the world etc..
Yes, GSP is boring if you dislike non stop action and relentless domination. He's become so good that he has to apologize at the end of a fight that he won every single second of.
