You want people to boo or cheer you, if they don't do either then you're in trouble.

Since when are finishes in combat sports not relevant?


since the beginning of time

all that matters is wins

this is why gsp is widely considered one of the best to ever exist, by everyone except new fans like you

I remember a time when many people of this forum told this one person the same thing over and over... He refused to believe it until a time came when he had no choice to believe

...........

That user is banned now...

But Anderson silva is considered the best ever by most. Why? Did he beat better people than GSP? No, not even close.. But he had spectacular finishes.

There's something to be said for making your opponent unconscious versus winning a decision. Beating 5 people by submission and TKO is not the same as beating them by decision. The fighter with the TKOs and submissions clearly was more dominant than the fighter that got decisions.

Idk who you're talking about, but I'm assuming you're talking about me saying the same thing over and over? If conor loses I'm really gonna look like an idiot lol. But whatever I have my opinions and I'm sticking by them until the fight.





Edit:

I think his antics keep people from looking at him objectively. In MY opinion, he might be the best striker in the division and probably is. People wanna say he's a karate guy or taek guy, but he's not... He's a national champion boxer... All that flashy shit he does is just to set his hands up... I think he's the most unpredictable and creative striker in that division for sure, and this is why I bet $$$ on him...... So I'm not just talking, I actually put my hard earned cash on the leprechaun.

Agreed that his antics blind people on actually looking at him for what he is

his striking is on another level, who he has fought doesn't take that fact away

there were as many people that considered gsp better than anderson on the p4p list

not just a few MANY


he isn't nowhere near the best striker in the division, hell, even i could go to a preschool and spinning back a toddler

the quality of opponent matters

it's really not anything special, who he has fought does take that away


even you, a beginner, against the right person, can look as good as connor looks, it's about the opposition

if you fight a bunch of cans with no striking defense, you're going to look like an amazing striker


look at frank mir for fuck's sake, he knocked out bigfoot and everyone is toting him as a knockout artist now and how his striking is so underrated and this and that
