FITCH was right....GSP is afraid to stand

I think Fitch hit the nail on the head that GSP is now scared to stand, he is turning into a wrestler....he chose to bring a Black Belt Jitz guy to the ground, to his strength, instead of standing with him....although it worked out for him....it did show his lack of confidence in his stand up game...I cant wait till Fitch kicks his ass.

He wasn't scared, he just fought very smart and even though there was little stand up in the fight yesterday, GSP showed better of it if u watch it again.

As for Fitch, I can't WAIT til GSP shuts this fuckers mouth up! GSP by TKO

I don't think you throw a spinning back kick if you're scared to stand do you?

None the less.... GSP took Serra down to where Serra was supposed to be the most dangerous, and beat the piss out of him. That is how mma looks when it is done to perfection.


Fitch will get raped by GSP.

he's scared?

and what evidence do you have ?

taking someone down to win a fight is not evidence for your statement... thats called strategy to win the fight.

Fitch stands with noone, so his argument doesn't have a leg to stand on.

Fitch fans are getting more annoying then GSP and BJ nuthuggers. I can't wait until St. Pierre prison rapes him.

Lack of confidence in his stand up game?

Or confidence in his top game.. He did afterall take down a guy with a supposed advantage on the ground.
GSP was passing Serra's guard so easily too, I didn't expect that.

more like in the past year he's realized that he's seriously the best wrestler in mma. why wouldn't he play to his strengths?

wtf... john fitch?? you mean the world renouned striker john fitch?? ur right he def has the right to say anything about gsps standup... lol ridiculous. He offers nothing more than koscheck... and koscheck is probably a better wrestler.. gsp is guna toss him around like a small girl and beat him into submission. Why would you ever think anything other than that??

TS you my friend, are one of many OF THE millions idiots that do not understand mma. gsp is too well gamed/rounded to knock off his ability to fight in any aspects of mma. he is the WW of fedor. not great at 1 aspect of mma like the other 97% of mma fighters but GOOD at every aspects of mma. so knocking him on one aspect is just retarded and irrelevant because he'll have other tools to beat the shiet out of any fighters he faces.

the 3% of mma fighters that are well rounded are FEDOR, ANDERSON, GSP... 97% of mma fighters are GREAT at ONLY 1 thing and shiet about everthing else. being good at everything is very rare and for idiots knock someone for not doing one thing or another because they have varieties of tools to use is retarded.
