GSP has never evern fought outside of his weight class, and is crazy strong for 170 and people still have him higher than BJ....it's hurts my brain to try and comprehend how they can argue that. Hopefully your post wil help.
Hindsight is always 20/20, I bet you were on here last March asking who Machida even was. Hey, BJ moved up in weight and didn't get finished, does that mean he is top pound for pound in the world? No. It just means he fought someone bigger than him. Why does a loss make him the #1 pound for pound fighter? Honestly. How? I would love to hear you explain that. By that logic shouldn't Diego be the greatest of all time because he was undefeated at Middleweight before going down to Welterweight? If Kawajiri moved up and fought Denis Kang would that make him the #1 Pound for Pound fighter to you?
