Honestly in my opinion it's hard to judge due to how they gameplanned. GSP was a great all around fighter and would game plan to expose his opponent's weakness. So it's easier to show off striking technique and look good doing it strinking against a weak striker. Same thing as far as grappling a weak grappler. Jones dumb ass would go in and fight the fight his opponent was best at which didn't leave him as much room to show off his skills as much.

Georges was a more positional grappler, but Jones was tapping out black belts and resting in black belt guards like Shogun's like nothing. Results>>>>>> belts, hence why people give Georges so much praise as a wrestler despite no wrestling background.

Jones completely outwrestled Olympians (Cormier) and All Americans (Bader), and was only taken down once ever by Gustaffson in a fight he spent the majority of the preparation for geeked out and blackout drunk, so to give the edge to Georges for taking down Koscheck, a faded Hughes and going tit for tat with Johny Hendricks (only elite wrestlers he fought) doesn't really make sense. They're AT LEAST even in that department, Jones' specialty is clinch wrestling not outside blast doubles, and he's way better than GSP there.

Ima Jones fan but don't kid yourself please, he did not out wrestle DC in that fight he planned his take downs perfectly cuaght DC's leg during a kick and tripped him up held DC against the cage and took him down there and showed take down defense as DC only got Jones down one time but you make it seem as if Jones shot in to score take downs lol nah he picked the right times but he didn't out wrestle DC in that fight. Just proved DC couldn't take him down but at the same time wasn't stupid so didn't go for a take down in DC unless he was holding him agains the cage or DC tried to throw a kick and he got his leg.
