Not even that. Any knowledgable MMA fan can clearly see that GSP has shown better MMA wrestling than Hendricks.
u said gsps wrestling was better than hendricks. obviously it wasnt. so i dont care what gsp did to thiago alves/dan hardy etc....hendricks was the better fighter all around.

If you've followed both fighters, you would see that GSP has shown better MMA wrestling throughout his career.
has nothing to do with anything. cheap workaround - i said going into the fight hendricks was better in most areas, i was right.

What workaround? Going into that fight, GSP had shown better MMA wrestling (hence why I said his MMA wrestling is better). This is not even debatable.
You also said that most of GSP's opponents enter the fight as better fighters in most areas, which is completely false. And you talked about GSP's 'PED use' with 0 evidence.
after re-watching the fight...i can see why theres the outrage. but its not so much that hendricks won..because I beleive he lost.
its that joe rogan puts these thoughts in everyones head throught the fight. plus majority of the highlights they showed after each round was showing hendricks doing damage...they hardly showed when GSP was kicking him in the head and hitting him with hooks. this puts the idea in your mind that Hendricks won the round...but he didnt.
GSP actually dominated round 1 joe rogan and everyone was just suprised that GSP wasnt able to have his way with hendricks like he does everyone else...its seems more like a suprise more then anything...but doing better then anyone else against GSP doesnt mean you won the round
all it means is that you did better then everyone else.
GSP took hendricks down immediately and hendricks was in defense mode majority of the round..the elbows hendricks through was to try to get GSP off of him. it wasnt like he was controlling anything...he was trying to FIGHT OFF Gsp. then hendricks took him down...which even'd out the takedowns. but then GSP began the strikes via kicking and some punching...strikes and take downs was even on both sides for round 1. but GSP was the aggressor so in the judges mind he won that round. and I cant argue with that. its the hype that GSP wasnt able to easily have his way with hendricks thats making people think hendricks won that round. Go re-watch round 1
round 1 is the deciding factor

this is completely irrelevant since gsp definitely did not prove to be the better wrestler. once again, u can parade the opinion and coveted consensus of whatever your white trash buddies write up on mma sites - sure gsp looked ''great'' taking down the likes of hardy/alves/diaz/condit - but it counted for nothing when hendricks/gsps skills were pitted against each other. i'll gladly be on the ''wrong'' side of your ''non-debatable fact'' before the fight and on the right side afterward
notice most his arguments are appeals to authority and he speaks in absolutes like a child. i asked him why silva winning was so absolute and he admitted hes just talking out his ass. but he tells u to stop talking about mma?
cant take him serious. (side note - also notice his 
response to that list, hardly ''fighting the best'', much less ''consistently'' but again this is how arrogant children dress their words)

Are you slow? GSP did get out-wrestled by Hendricks (not by much though), but that still doesn't take away from the fact that going into yesterday's fight, GSP had shown better wrestling in his career. Go watch both fighters careers and you'll see who has the better wrestling. In his career, GSP has arguably shown the best wrestling of any MMA fighter right now.

You can say whatever you like, but the fact still remains that GSP has fought and beaten the best WWs in the world.
Top 5 and 10 ranked fighters are the elite of the division . Of GSP last 16 opponents, 14 of them have either been ranked in the top 5 or 10 in the WW division. So, he's consistently fighting the best.
Prove me wrong fakkit.

If GSP's resume is , then find me 10 fighters with a better resume. I'll be waiting.

child the insults spew forth.
obviously
since the close of 2010, he's fought 4 times. by definition, he hasn't consistently fought, period. proven wrong.
come off like an uneducated redneck before trying to insult someones intelligence, yall.
one poster noted the mass of people who are highly suspicious gsps using, i happen to be one of many. that comment was in reference to the article about gsps people calling whoever was going to test him and asking ''what are yall looking for on these tests?''
so get appalled () all u want with fantasies of a clean gsp, he clearly cheated against penn and the only thing he brings to a fight is an uncanny ability to keep his opponent pressed to the mat. youll have to live with the opinion, ''fakit''.

He had major ACL surgery, why the fukk would you consider that year? He's fought 3 times in the past year. You didn't prove anything. Try again.

Again, 0 evidence to prove he did PEDs. Being 'suspicious' is not evidence.
GSP is going down as a top 3 MMA fighter of all time. He must do a great job of 'pressing his opponent to the mat'.
