I agree he still has a ways to go before he matches Hughes accomplishments at WW i just think he deserves credit for the work he's already done. i mean he fights and beats the best at WW consistantly and decisively.

He is a 50/50 guy ... only stopping 50% of his opponents at this point in time .... he may occasionally explode and GnP, but for the most part he tends to grapple and work to just maintain a dominant position ... he is more of a LnPer than a GnPer today.

Yes, he should smash Hardy ... but if Hardy lands and touches GSP's glass chin, it could make for a huge upset.

Both were very dominate champions and both were mad talented fighters. |
I agree with this.
