- Thread starter The Infamous
- Start date
You canucks are the worst posters on this site. You see GSP face?
Aww...you upset breh?
did you think jones won his last fight? cuz its the same situation
you gotta beat a champ convincingly ..and this fight was too close for that...takedowns typically score more points then strikes and GSP took him down more so stop crying

Hendricks pulled the same shyt that Marquez did against Pacquiao, and what De La Hoya did against Trinidad. He got comfortable, coasted along, and it came back to bite him in the ass.
Disagree with the decision, but I'm not surprised. That's what happens when you leave it in the hands of the judges. To be the champ, you gotta beat the champ. You want that belt? TAKE IT FROM HIM. Hendricks took his foot off the pedal, and he's going to have to live with himself on that one.
As for GSP, I believe he handled this one way classier than Machida did against Shogun. He gave props to Hendricks, and wasn't too denying of the decision. We don't exactly know what's going on with him, so we just have to wait and see.
I would very much love to see a rematch, but if this is the end, then there is no better way for GSP to out than on top. That's my French-Canadian MMA WW GOAT.
And FYI, even though I'm a GSP mark, I scored it 48-47 Hendricks. Again, don't leave it in the hands of the judges.

fight went similar to jones last fight. ...you gotta win convincingly.
GSP had more takedowns...Hendricks appeared more active...and GSP had more physical damage...but GSP was outstriking a striker in 2 of the 5 rounds...you add GSP takedowns to the mix...and you have a "and....still" decision
These bums are basing it on how GSP's face looks....His face doesnt react well to punishment we have seen that but Hendricks didnt do shyt to him...
Took him down and let him up...I had it 2-2 going into round 5 and it was no question GSP won that round....He should have done more....The 5th was the tiebreaker and he didnt do a cot damn thing..go home and CRY johnny...
I just read on twitter that two judges gave GSP the 1st round. Thoughts?
Listen to this man here. Hendricks said himself all I have to do is touch him to knock him out, well he touched him quite a few times and failed to knock him out.Hendricks pulled the same shyt that Marquez did against Pacquiao, and what De La Hoya did against Trinidad. He got comfortable, coasted along, and it came back to bite him in the ass.

What damage did he really do ? A couple scratches on his face....GSP ate his best punches...
Hendricks had GSP on rollerskates in the second round, very unfortunate that there was the stoppage for the mouthpiece
Ok there needs to be some understanding of combat sports. Not every single thing has to be a clear cut KO for a win. If you watch the first two rounds Hendricks was cleary staggering GSP with power shots and got a few TD. GSP came back in the third with strikes but never had him hurt. Hendricks landed brutal GnP in the 4th which should have solidified a victory. GSP won the 5th with grappling and kicks but he still didn't hurt Hendricks. Like I said, Hendricks did damage. GSP even admitted it in his post fight. Awful judging like this makes me wish we go back to UFC 1 days were dudes fought to the death. This is two title fights now ruined by awful, robbery decisions
If its a close fight, judges are going to most likely give it to the champion. Hendricks won the FIGHT, but GSP won the CONTEST by winning more rounds imo if you go by the stats. But, anyways, who is going to file those papers on GSP? 
His explosiveness, speed, and power double is completely gone and he looks shot. He starting gassing after the 2nd round in this fight. He has been gassing since the Condit fight. He has looked mad since that Torn ACL he got. Smart for him to retire, he looks done imo, someone file those papers.
