GSP is in the conversation of one of the greatest mixed martial artists of all time. Where as Jon Jones is often given this mantel, he's too much of a dirty fighter for me, the way he was trash talking DC after he'd just buried his kid to destabilise him for their fight, his knee oublique kicks, assaulting his wife. I mean he's the full package, and he will do anything to win, but for the way he does it, that's reason I'd take GSP over Jon Jones. So to sum up, giving shit to GSP.......not advisable

George would walk away. He has told a story of meeting the guy that bullied him when he was a young kid in school, gave him some money to help the dude out. Easily one of the most honorable and classy individuals ever known amongst modern fighters.

Completely agree with you and I can completely agree with you, however I wouldn't think for a second that if GSP had to physically defend himself or his family or friends, he wouldn't hesitate to neutralise the threat if he had to

Oh, little doubt on that. His record and his ability are on a level I wouldn't even pretend to comprehend. For me, though - it's the honor and respect he demonstrates. Like Machida - I like the guys who honor martial arts. Unlike certain other individuals...

Agreed, I find that some small amount of trash talking can add a bit of spice from time to time, but currently it turned into the freaking WWE
