eljamaiquino - He is dominating, but a p4p#1 should be finishing opponents IMO. If you go by decisions, then Jake Shields should be up there too...
Shields' best wins at 170 are barely in top 10 (Daley/Kampmann). GSP has cleaned out the division. THe Kampmann fight was a joke, SHields barely beat him, and Kampmann didnt even try to win that fight
and lol @ the tool on this thread criticizing GSP for a 'jabathon'. He fought a smart and effective fight. He wins fights in different ways. He stopped a Division 1 NCAA wrestling stud from taking him down and scored a few for himself in the process. You have no idea what youre talking about.

True, but Shields also beat a Pride 185 and 205 champ in Dan Henderson, and beat Yushin Okami. When a guy who fights at 170 beats a 205 champ, that has to put some cred on his p4p standing...
Everyone has an opinion I think GSP is #1 but I know a lot think silva is too. Aldo is up there too just not enough recognition yet. I hopr to ser silva vs GSP and then it can be answered
GSP is #1, fitch has pretty much cleaned up the ww division and there is such a huge gap between GSP and Fitch, in no other division is there a bigger gap between #1 and #2...

It wont be answered. GSP will dominate Silva then people will say Aldo is p4p #1 because he finishes. Fuck finishing if you're competing against top level guys and are making them look like they haven't fought before. And to the guy that said Shields should be ranked p4p, I agree. So should Fitch. Here is my list.
GSP fighting anderson would nto end the P4P debate. If anderson wins, which in all likelihood he would, it means he was able to beat a guy much smaller than him. P4P is about whos fighting style is the best, anderson got exposed big time by Chael as having a very incomplete game, thus hes not p4p the best.
