I don't think Fitch is as skilled as GSP but he definitely has the heart to stay in there. It will most likely be a battle to remember
You have seen that "motivational" poster for BJJ...that says something like "BJJ, it's only gay if you make eye contact"
style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #2f2f2f"
style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #2f2f2f"i'll try to find the poster, stand by

I was glad that GSP won that fight, But Joe Rogan kept saying how tough GSP was and how he was dominating Fitch. I was thinking the whole time that if he was so dominant, why was the fight going to go to a decision? Isnt Finishing a fight, the biggest indicator of domination?

GSP did dominate Fitch but did not finish Fitch. I think there is a difference. I think GSP sometimes doesn't finish people quickly on purpose for some reason. This is just my opinion but it looks like he could have ended the fight multiple times but chose not to. Maybe it's just a testiment to how tough Fitch is.
I think his last Hughes fight he also had the opportunity to finish it before he did but chose to drag it on to either beat up Hughes more or make it more interesting to the fans.
This may sound ridiculous but I think GSP is that good.

I have no doubt that GSP is good. I just dont agree that you are dominating when you cannot finish. At any rate, he is exactly where he deserves to be. AT THE TOP. I wonder if he were bigger if he could beat Fedor????

He can't get that big. Maybe 185 to fight Silva...but that would still be a mis match I think.

It would be something to see though. I think he has the skills, but the size difference would not be easy to overcome. Do you think that mentally he could handle some one like fedor?
