10-20 years from now, people aren't going to remember all those "awesome" decisions he won, or all those lightweights he beat up on. He'll remembered, for what he is, a boring, safe, technical elite MMA fighter.
Contrary to popular belief, he will not go down as a goat, neither will anderson. They'll go down as a great fighter of their time but 10-20 years from now the sport will be so evolved, we'll look back and be like how the fuck were we entertained by this sloppy crap?
15 years from now, jon jones wouldn't crack the top 10. So for all of you that see GSP as a god, he is not.
So what are you saying, that 10-20 years from now there will be new fighters with equally or more impressive careers?
You sir are a modern day Nostradamus.
GSP is an exceptional talent. He will be one of the GOAT at that point still.
You, sir, are full of shit

This thread is for the delusional who label todays fighters all time greats, when the sport is what 20 years old? Lol enough time to give someone a label of all time great? lol

This is awesome 
Thiaguy - Stupid thread
All time great boxers from the past like Duran and Leonard would beat the shit out of today's "evolved" boxers ect
A prime Fedor beats every current top HW today except for maybe Cain, Santos, and Overeem
Yeah but the sport of boxing at the point was only what? over 100 years old? You must ride the short bus.

Fuck me a bet he thinks no one remembers pele or mardonna. Mean thats been 30+ years pele & 20years for mardonna since they ruled football or even Ali & tyson & suger ray who are they its been 20 + years too. No one forgets fighters if you lived through there era and watched them or even if you didnt they live through video footage and peoples words . You fucking dummy. GSP may not be the greatest but he sure will be remembered as one of the greats. Just like andy & fedor. Now fuck off back too wwe 
Did you really just call GSP and Anderson Silva "sloppy crap"?
Leave. Leave now and never come back.

soccer was 70 years old when pele showed up.....and the sport has evolved so much since then.

My god these fucking n00bs lmfao, you don't think we were talking about pankration 10 years ago on this site? Amazes me how these fucking trend following n00bs think they have all the insight.
Sports evolve through the passing of knowledge and technique. Pankration was not passed down through the ages.
And gladiatorly days wtf? Pankration was greek, not roman you idiot, now go back to sherdog/or whatever lame mma site you get your info from.

The art of mixed martial arts ( pankration) has been around sine the Gladiatorly days
Great talents come and go. I don't think it has anything to do with humans "evolving" lol ect
In fact, one of boxing's earliest known fighters (Rocky Marciano) had more pound for pound KO power then any current "evolved" boxer of today
And that was at a time when there were no roids or high level training ect
Rocky was all natural. He was born with freakish power that no current"evolved" boxer of toady can even touch while being on roids ect
Put Rocky Marciano on roids or put him in a modern day gym, and there's no doubt in my mind he would be able to kill an opponent with one punch ect
The only thing that increases over time, is knowelge, and training ect
Fighters of today aren't more "evolved" then the fighters of yesterday ect
Maybe more prepared, more efficient, more technical minded ect
But more evolved?
LOL it is bullshit, and was started by Zuffa as a marketing ploy
I bet you believe everything Zuffa tells you.
Earliest known fighters? Rocky marciano? LOL my god just stop please stop, ever heard of jack johnson?
Jesus christ, they should really have some sort of test before you can create a membership on this website.
The loons are out of the asylum.
"The birth hour of boxing as a sport may be its acceptance by the ancient Greeks as an Olympic game as early as 688 BC"
"Pankration (play /pæn.?kre?ti.?n/ or /pæ??kre???n/) was a martial art introduced into the Greek Olympic Games in 648 BC"
Which is older friend? Lol
Also my point is the infancy of MODERN MMA, which is 20 years old, compare that to boxing under the Marquess of Queensberry rules, which was implenmented in 1867.
so compare boxers of today or shit even the 50's with boxers from 1887.
This shit was all recorded faggot, or you think humans didn't record history until vhs or dvd's?
Dude you got owned in every point you brought up, pankration older than boxing lol, you have to develop a martial art before you can MIXED MARTIAL ARTS them fucking idiot lmfao.

First you state 15 to 20 in your post "op" now you going back 100 years in football Are you fucking dumb of coarse things evolve just like everything. We just dont forget there greatness and what they have done. Like gracie or bruce lee sukubra. Ken shamrock. Matt hughes. your stating we will just forget them or think they were shit.. Which is balls cock.. Just like the of "bobby lennox" jinky jonstone" "bobby moore" jack charlton " & george best. GSP Record speaks for its self. Which is a pretty fucking amazing record for mma standards. Now am away because am not talking to a shit head that calls "football" .. "soccer". Means you know fuck all about my other sport. & the only way you would is by looking up "david beckham" on wikepedia To even go in a discussion about it. Means you think rugby should be played with helmets and shoulder pads . And be called "American football".

Are you fucking stupid? I'm talking about MMA being in its infancy, soccer was not in its infancy when pele showed up you idiot.
If I called it football, on an AMERICAN WEBSITE, people might be confused as to what sport I'm talking about. If I was on an english website, i'd call it football, or a brazilian website I'd call it futebol

Your calling people noobs but you sound like you just crawled out of kindergarten, when did you make the transition from WWE to Mma son?
Mixed Martial arts is in its peak . This is of hundreds of years of contact sports got to there peaks now evloving into one "kid". That includes boxing . Which means. The history of this sport is bigger & longer than what you think.."kid" "Bruce lee" say no more. and he died before UFC 1 ever happend. Is he shit..? "kid" UFC wasnt the start of mma. Nore was "bruce lee". You have only seen it since it was televised..
Thiaguy - Boxing was really about 30 years of footage old at the moment the all time century greats from the 50's came along ect
It's the same with MMA now.
MMA WAS AROUND in the 80's you know!
I'm pretty sure there were recorded matches before that too
So the greats like GSP, Fedor, Anderson, Shogun etc are doing their things at a time when MMA has been around for about that long too (30 years)
The Fedor's, GSP's, Shogun's, Anderson's ect
WILL BE the Hagler's, Hearn's, Durran's, and Leonard's of the Mixed martial arts world,
And they WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN
I'm pretty sure they will remain better then a majority of top fighters that come afterwards too like with what was the case in boxing ect
Without google you couldn't tell me how, and in what round were won between duran, haggler, hearns, and leonard.
MMA has been around since the 80's? MMA or vale tudo? are they the same? Tell me more o wise twelver.
What many MIXED disciplines were these fighters trained in.
