His technique + strategy though.

no fucking doubt

but i can't get over the fact that he hasn't faced any quality opposition in his division.

i don't like this best p4p of all time thing anyway.

mcgregor vs ferguson could be one of the best fights of the year, not much competition about that, but i really like that match up. wonder if ferguson will stand with him.

Agreed. From a pure grappling perspective, Borg was waaaay outclassed. DJ made Borg look like a white belt.

Borg was obviously athletic and had some good wrestling, but other than that, it was like watching a white belt going against a black belt.

I hope he doesn't. Maybe he knew that Lee was very stiff so he was able to be so relaxed and had his hands down, but if he does that to Conor I could see Conor blitzing him very fast.

u think joe rogan goes on about it?

fucking helwani is even worse

Both Joe and Helwani are really passionate about what they do, but sometimes they can be really cringy.

I still remember Joe Rogan saying he cried because Ronda won.

Rogan tends to say a lot of stupid shite for money these days.( can't blame him though)

If you wanna hear him talk about something that's not shite, listen to his podcast when he has interesting guests.

Seems like Conor - Ferguson will happen. I'm guessing it's the last PPV of the year.

--

Don't know wtf Nate Diaz is doing, is he just gonna sit on his ass until Conor is available? I want to see him fight ffs. :fp: Would love to see Nate vs Khabib :eek: daaaamn just thought about that match up right now.

That matchup can happen anytime, Conor has it in his backpocket, probably happen in a couple years.

Hopefully he takes on Tony though, Ferguson is awesome, but i reckon Conor would destroy him in stand up early on

i don't think it's that easy for conor to say that he want's Diaz.

Ferguson has an interim belt, UFC gave it to him just to stop Conor from the rubber match.

Diaz needs to build some momentum, I don't even like the nate conor fight as things look like right now.

I like both of them, so i will be rooting for The Count, simply because he is funnier :D

That being said, GSP has no way to win. He is a much smaller guy, Bisping is known to get up really fast after being taken down, and he doesn't posses a K.O threat to Bisping.

Larry going to beat up him proper in this one, GSP going to visit his alien buddies.

Bisping has been absolutely hilarious.

But I think GSP will take him down, and keep him down as well. But I also want Bisping to win.

I think bisping is going to win this one as well, but for me it's because GSP hasn't fought in 4 years.

He says he's been training though.

I know, just training not for any fights isn't the same but at least his skills should be still up to date.

I don't see size as a big difference as Bisping, the key to this fight for me is how well Bisping can stand up from GSP's take down. Overall, I would say GSP is a more well rounded fighter with extremely good wrestling. Honestly, many would be surprised that he picked up wrestling later on in life and he also puts it better than a pure wrestler like Yoel Romero for example. Even if the fight is standing up, I see GSP as better fighter whereas Bisping can make the fight a dog fight.

Overall, I rate GSP as a better fighter in terms of technique and strategy, but it will really be up to how well he can shake off the ring rust and not let Bisping in his head.
