Looking forward to Hendricks v GSP, I think Hendricks style and superb wrestling will be a good matchup against GSP.
I'm calling Hendricks ftw
If you thought the fight was a bore, then you really have no idea what you were watching. Either that or some of the highest level grappling you are ever likely to see is just not your cup of tea. Personally, I thought the amount of effort GSP had to put into neutralizing Diaz and his BJJ, while still attempting to remain busy enough to avoid a "stand-up" was intriguing. There were a few times that Nick got enough space to work, and seeing GSP counter as quickly and thoroughly as he did was a treat.
Different strokes, I guess . . .
GTA Poker;349990 wroteDo you feel that Hendricks brings anything more than Koshchick did?
2 wrestlers usually = striking match...hopefully a good one. I assume (just by looking at them) that GSP has the reach advantage and his Karate will allow him to move in and out much better than Hendricks. GSP will probably jab the shit out of Hendricks akin to the Koshchick fight.
Hendricks wrestling pedigree is much more substantial than Koscheck's, so yes, he does bring more. I would not be surprised to see Hendricks actually take GSP down if he tries it. As for Georges jabbing the crap out of him, you do realize that the best counter to GSP's jab is a counter left hook, right? Just so happens that Hendricks counter left hook is a nuclear bomb just waiting to go off on his opponent's chin, so lets hope GSP has a better gameplan than that.
costanza;349998 wroteGSP fights are so boring
he cant strike/box with the best of them, so he has to take it to the ground where he has an edge
dana is gonna drop him soon enough imo, his fights are simply boring as helllllll and horrible for ppv
Actually made the exception of taking your post off ignore, just to see what idiocy you would post. You have, as always, no clue what you are talking about. But, just for fun, lets dissect your stupidity, shall we?
He cannot strike/box with the best of them . . . Nick Diaz is widely regarded as one of the best boxers in all of MMA. In the fight last night he was outstruck by GSP. The standard retort to this evidence would be that GSP has no power in his strikes, to which I reply with, "go look at pictures of Jon Fitch, Josh Koschek, or Carlos Condit, after they fought GSP." And then remember that all of Kos's damage was done by GSP's jab.
Dana is going to drop him soon enough . . . because Dana white and the Fertitta brothers hate money, right? Last night's card had gate receipts of over $13.5 million dollars. Yeah, firing your cash cow is real smart for business.
His fights are boring as hell and horrible for PPV . . . which is why GSP fights result in the highest PPV buy rates of any fighter currently under contract with the UFC. Higher even than Anderson Silva. the only fighter who has ever done a higher number than GSP is the retired Brock Lesnar. Dana has been on record for years stating that GSP is the #1 PPV star in the company. That is one of the reasons that Zuffa, and Silva, want the superfight to be between Silva and GSP, rather than Jones.
Your trolling would be so much more effective if you actually had a clue what you were talking about. But your crap is so ridiculously easy to disprove, it isn't even entertaining anymore. Just STFU . . .
