    Check out the records of fighters they lost to - Serra and Chonan.

    Serra has ko'd 2 out of 18 fights, GSP is one of those.

    Chonan has subbed 2 out of 30 fights, Silva is one of those.

    Pretty much, they were both embarassed by fighters who are **** at how they finished them.

    ***** on paper at least

    * Chonan other sub was via punches

    Plus, if GSP had been in the game, I have no doubt he would've survived that beating by Serra. He didn't even look that hurt, just defeated. And Anderson was caught by a freak heelhook. Chonan knew how to do it, that's all that matters. It's not like he's gonna rack up a number of submissions with a heelhook like that which comes out of nowhere.

    People need to keep in mind that GSP has defeated every fighter he's ever fought.

    Anderson silva had an injured foot and was hit by a freak submission on said injury very different to getting beaten by matt serra. Not taking anything away from Matt hes a good fighter and he beat a legend but hes not on their level.
