Cain Velasquez, Jon Jones, Anderson Silva, Benson Henderson and Jose Aldo. All the other champions stay looking good while winning. Well I guess Velasquez just got back on board, but still. He's left a trail of dead bodies before losing to JDS and has since evened it up.
He was really trying to finish Dan Hardy too, I remember him being really upset that Hardy was able to escape that armbar.
Because he never seems to work towards it and GSP isn't a reckless talker. It's a sham, just say you are going to dominate and leave it at that.
A win is a win, good for him. Personally I cant rate a guy that dominates opponents but doesn't finish as the top P4P.
Jones has become just as methodical and finishes so it can be done without being reckless.

hardy didnt escape,hardy just refused to tap out. gsp isnt the type to break someones arm so he let go. if memory serves,it happened a couple times.

these cats are a trip foreal @phillycavsfan that look on their faces is the realization that under unified rules u dont necessarily need martial arts if you are a freak athlete with ridiculous strength.Of course that would be demoralizing but thats not the same as a dude psychologically clowning u using "martial arts"
who said he did? the argument was what gsp does is just the same as anderson which is a ridiculous statement. Aesthetically what gsp does is ugly, he doesnt intend to finish so his whole approach is different.And is predictably guaranteed to go 5 rounds.In the annals of time you will only be able to point to the first 2 matt hughes (and serra) fights.Because he is just forgettable the fact that hes a ppv king is beside the point because we know thats entirely gays/women/whites with an inferiority complex in sports living vicariously.Cant say the same for anderson

exactly, what gsp does to his opponents cannot be compared to what anderson does to them. with anderson, its more than just knocking dudes out, its pure psychological warfare. he toys with professional fighters, humiliates them, shows them they dont belong in the same octagon as him, then puts them out of their misery. ive never seen a fighter put themselves in more risk than anderson. he really is the anti-GSP in this regard. he likes to beat his opponents where they are best at. using his last fight against bonnar as an example, bonnar's gameplan was to hold him up against the fence, use dirty boxing, make it ugly, and take him down if it gets too crazy (a la randy couture). anderson nullified all of that, and showed him he couldn't do ANYTHING to him. to me this is far more demoralizing than being held down for 25 minutes
^drops his hands and clowns him, because he can
^anderson goes back to where bonnar wanted him, because he can
^anderson finishes the fight because he proved his point and he's bored of him

That's a terrible, misleading example of Silva's talent. You realize that Stephan Bonnar is a bonafide scrub right? Bonnar was basically a .500 fighter in the UFC. That was a squash match that had to be set up under short notice. It was like the Undertaker fighting the Brooklyn Brawler. You think Silva's pulling off shyt like that against Chael Sonnen, Demian Maia, or Chris Weidman? Please.
I'm not saying what Silva did wasn't impressive, but it's akin to Jon Jones fighting a guy like Kyle Kingsbury, or GSP fighting Roger Bowling. Champion vs a UFC replacement-level fighter.

Dan Hardy had beaten Mike Swick (pre-injury) in a #1 contender fight and he was on a 7 fight win streak before fighting GSP. And at least Hardy has knockout power. Hardy wasn't great but he wasn't a scrub either.
Bonnar's best win is Keith Jardine. 7 years ago.
Didn't Silva just clown Sonnen with a knee to the chest to finish him for the second time.
Didn't Silva clown on Belfort, who almost broke Jon Bones arms, which he probably could have did, if he didn't let go
come on man Silva is clearly the most talented fighter to ever do MMA
