A post like this shows you never saw Fedor in his prime and only started watching him post Pride, he was a strategic general in Pride and when he left Pride he started standing and banging, if you actually followed his career you would know that. You exposed yourself with that comment.
Jesus fukin Christ.....Yeah, I've never seen Fedor is his prime. Good catch.

LOL, again you are showing ignorance. In his Prime , in Pride, he had fights like that and also had high strategy IQ fights, point is he did it all.

Your boy SCADA @SCADA's post leaves that part out

Try again
GSP is 10000% more technical than Fedor....if you can't see that in the striking department alone, you're a fukin idiot.

"GSP has never been as sloppy as Fedor has in a fight. Fedor swings like it's his only chance to win a fight."



Those are your owns dummy, if you saw him in Pride you would know he had many fights wtih great strategy

Your own words make you look dumb

LOL the only one who is having an issue is you. I don't RaginCajun @RaginCajun or any poster having an issue, you are just a salty baby who thinks we all need to agree with you.

Why don't you go cry to a mod like you always do.
Not gonna go back and forth with you and have you shit up my thread.

But yes, if you continue to troll, I'll report the posts. Cheers.

Then if you saw him fight in Pride you would know he was not a stand and banger lol. You make no sense, as usual.
I'm probably older than your father...and have been watching shit way before you. Fedor in the last 10 years is a sloppy fuk...not in his prime.

GSP has never been sloppy. EVER.

This is exactly what I didn't want to get into. Rumours have been afoot forever about everyone within Pride juicing. I honestly don't know enough about it back then.

Don't say I was "argumentative". There wasn't one.
Just substitute the word argument for 'point'. I just wanted to understand the logic. It's not a rumor that people were juicing in Pride - it's a fact. They weren't testing for steroids, so it was a level playing field.

It's also not a rumor that pre-USADA that proper drug testing of any sort didn't exist in the UFC, that it wasn't a level-playing because some were allowed to juice and that as soon as USADA came in that people were getting popped left right and centre, and that GSP has only fought once in the USADA era.

Discounting someone for 'cheating' is relevant to Jones and Silva - I don't agree with that, it was just the premise of OP - but it has no relevancy if we make the argument about GSP vs Fedor.

This is true, and I didn't want to delve too deeply into the PED thing. It's true Pride fighters were allowed to juice, and it's true the pre-USADA UFC drug tests were probably easily cheated.

And while it's true that GSP only fought once in the USADA era, it's relevant to note that fight he came off a 4-year layoff to move up a division and beat the world champ there.

So if he could do that at this advanced stage of his career completely clean, it is likely that he could have achieved the rest of his resume clean IMO.

So I give both GSP and Fedor the benefit of the doubt.

Agreed. I think according to regular P4P criteria GSP is number one. And I actually used to post under the name 'Me and my black girlfriend invite GSP around for cuckhold sessions', but because the name was too long, my girlfriend wasn't black, and she didn't actually exist at all, I thought I'd change it.

GSP lost a fight and retired immediately IMO

Hendricks pieced him up

why knock a fighter down to boost another....I don't understand that phenomenon

all good though...enjoy
I rainbows you

For my own amusement

Fantasyland here in my head -as most of you know by now- but as long as the
mostly-pointless effort to find THE ONE GOAT is up, I might as well keep the
silliness silly. Complete fantasy , because it didn't happen, but it would've been
interesting IF Royce had only had to fight other ww's ?. How messed up is it by
modern standards that he had to fight guys 50-75 lbs. heavier? How WOULD
GSP do against Prime Fedor ?...or Dan Severn...or Kimo ? You know, if the whole
playing field were level , with everyone magically granted a bit more of a well-rounded
game, since that didn't exist in the early days? ;).

But back to the minor fantasy : who was more dominant, more scary , more
impressive in their wins (I don't arse myself with stats) ?

I vote Fedor
Only fiighter I've never wanted to go against is wanderlei.

And good points here as well. I have to be honest and was worried about GSPs comeback fight. Nobody who's taken a lengthy time off has come back to look like those old self, usually it's a very sad representation of who they were. But once GSP got on the scale it was obvious he was taking the MW title seriously, he look like a Greek sculpture! And after so many said IF he wins it would be a boring lay N pray he puts on a great performance and finishes Mike a excellent fashion.

GOAT status needs to include a fighters complete body of work for better or for worse. GSP has been consistent as it gets even late into his career fighting top guys every outing. You don't see any Jaideep types on George's resume. I love me some Fedor and he'll always be one of the best ever (especially looking only at HW) but George's has the better resume and acheivements as of now.
So,have them fight.

Yep

9-4 in last 10 years...and he is an older man

Even in the last 10 years he has been very dangerous and successful

before the last 10 years of his career he was 31-0

That is a bad mofo
