Now let me make this clear i respect gsp but i dont respect his "fight safe" style. I know gsp gets a lot of heat for not finishing but i finally found out he is just a point fighter the gifs below will back my statement. First,
Gsp breaks koscheck's orbital bone with the 1st punch and instead of swarming hes fine jus jabbin for the rest of the fight.
Then he drops jake shields with a HK and instead of pouncing for a TKO asks the ref to stand him back up
And finally hear he could have broke hardy's arm but felt bad abd just decided to let go and win a boring UD
Thoughts.???

Isn't this the exact same thread you did like 2 minutes ago about GSP being the most overrated strike ever?
yet another reason to have an " Official Anti-GSP thread."

Obvious point fighter is obvious.

Why don't you give credit to Hardy for an incredible pain threshold and a great submission escape (you may not see it through your hate, but Hardy does very well & GSP doesn't have the right grip, Hardy turns his arm which stops GSP breaking it).
I'm not a fan of GSP, but your hate in unbelievable.

Also, why the hell would he go to the ground with Shields when he was beating him standing? He hurts Shields but he doesn't seem to bad, he goes for a leg and if GSP follows him down, he's just going to get tied up.

Well didn't you mean "did" and "against Georgez"?
And I think Hardy did well the whole fight, he just got subdued, not a scratch on his face. If there was 5 rounds in Hardy/Johnson, Hardy woulda got stopped in the 4th.

That's what I said. Don't take part of my post, and edit it to make it seem like I'm saying something else. Hardy done well in the submission escape, he turned his arm and was able to stop GSP breaking it.

What is your point buddy? Who cares what GSP does to win? You will continue to watch his boring fights and no matter how many theoretical posts with pretty pictures you make telling us a story about how GSP this and GSP that you will continue to watch this phenom. Now stop these silly posts.

Georges St. Pierre even said in subsequent interviews that he let go of the armbar that he had on Dan Hardy, because he didn't want to break his arm, so yeah Hardy "escaped", but he only "escaped" because Georges St. Pierre allowed him to by loosening the armlock. It only looks like Hardy escaped because St. Pierre covered up the fact that he let it go very well. I mean he couldn't just let everyone see that he let go of the armbar right during the fight, the backlash would have been epic. St. Pierre is actually pretty intelligent in the fact that he waited until after the fight was finished to tell everyone that he let it go, that way he could make it seem he did Hardy a favor by not breaking his arm, thus, setting up everyone to love him once again.

Read that article, and then watch that video. The Gracie video is nice and all, but it isn't going too far to think that St. Pierre didn't want to break his arm as well. But, we could go back and forth on this subject for decades. The result will always be even though Hardy escaped or either was let escape by St. Pierre, St. Pierre still dominated the fight which is something we can both agree on.

No doubt GSP didn't want to break his arm, however I don't think Hardy gave him the option to. I just don't like people taking credit away from Hardy in what was great submission defense.

I thought this had already been established. Anyone who disagrees is just afraid of the truth.

I'm not huge GSP fan, and I do think that he doesn't look for finishes, but those GIFs in your original post contribute nothing to that argument. He didn't exactly drop Shields, it was more that Shields was a little rattled by the head kick and dove for GSP's leg. GSP was right to keep it standing rather than just dive on top of Shields because he wasn't hurt to bad. That Koscheck GIF just shows GSP some pretty powerful shots actually. And the Hardy GIF really came down to GSP not being able to break Hary's arm.
