The Power to Shock the World: Official UFC 167- GSP vs Hendricks Thread

[nineteeneightysix]

didnt see the post fight sppech but when i peeped this i felt dana was literally putting my thoughts to words until i heard george announced his retirement.Clearly most of the clearity he sees is driven by the $$ the rematch will bring..Speaking of which what does it say about george's legacy tthat he never finished a legit ww in their prime and the 1st legit contender beats him (in the octagon) and then he bolts. 5 hours in the octagon? really? and this dude is suppose to be the best that ever did it

Stop exaggerating...

Hendricks was not a clear winner in that fight...GSP landed more strikes, but Hendricks did more damage...The fight was similar to Bones vs Gus...It could have gone either way...

People are acting like if Hendricks mauled GSP...Hendricks could have won the fight, if he had been more aggressive instead of waiting for the counter punch...

lol, Dana being pissed off at GSP is fukked up and emblematic of the monopolistic nature of the UFC.

who cares if "it's not right" - he has the right to do it.

The bolded is completely false.

GSP's legacy is pretty much cemented. He's the GOAT WW and he's right behind Silva and Fedor in overall GOAT rankings.

the media are puppets and are always duped by joe rogan.

They sit 10 feet away at press row.

just caught the whole event and i never really felt woodley but since he came to ufc dude has turned to a ww rashad.I couldnt be more happier for what he did to halfbreed.Its like woodley summoned the anger of every brother in that punch for what kos did in tuf 12 and the daley/aj fight[s..I am flabbergasted over lawler i honestly thought his resurgence was fabricated by the ufc but he exposed the so called gsp heir apparent.The cerrone dunham fight should've ended sooner shame on cerrone for letting it last that long. As for the rashad/sonnen fight, went as expected, ufc can sell the wandi/chael fight as a grudge match all they want but its more irrelevant now than ever. That russian dude against elliot let the side down

Good show tho, ufc has really been on fire lately

The bolded is completely false.

what ww in their prime did gsp ever finish?

Look at what I bolded. Reading comprehension breh.

Going into the last round I told my homeboys Hendricks would lose if gsp got a takedown, johnny tried to coast and paid

Seems like Chael knew he was in trouble and gave up to preserve for the silva fight. Still props to rashad he looked much better

Glad Robbie got the W, I wanna see him and Carlos next


Tyron Woodley vs Hector needs to happen

i had gsp winning rounds 1,3 & 5 dont know what all the fuss is about gsp is one of the p4p greats of mma and i dont think hendricks did enough to take the belt from the undisputed champ.

If johnny would have kept pressuring in the last round he would've 3-2'd George on the judges scorecards, Johnny lost the fight himself

Tyron Woodley vs Hector needs to happen

why do 2 brothers (far removed from their origins/ title contendership) need to beat each other to get there?

 

[The Infamous]

who was his first legit contender

GSP consistently fights the best fighters in one of the most toughest and deepest divisions in MMA. As a result, he will generally fight 'legit contenders'.

What the hell does this have to do with anything. They're fighters they don't give a fukk

 

[semtex]

It doesn't seem like that many years have passed since GSP first got the belt where tf is my life goin brehs?

 

[The Infamous]

Lombard, Woodley and Lawler all train together. They might not be willing to fight each other.
