I don't care to see him leave, but I think there are others that need to be cut along with him. If GSP didn't have the belt and lost a few he would be in Fitch's shoes....just think about it.

No way, GSP sells way too many fights. GSP has the stand up skill to have exciting fights, but usually takes the safer route once he senses the slightest bit of trouble in a fight.

Indeed he does, but that is because he is champ and people remember the days leading up to the day he became champ. You take the belt away and and the fame that came with it he is in the same shoes as Fitch. I admit I still buy his fights, but I buy them to see him lose. He has become a decision machine. As GSP once said to a great fighter, " I am not impressed with your performance." To be honest I haven't been impressed with his in quite sometime. He fights not to lose, not to win. He doesn't want any of Johny Hendricks. That is who I have marked taking his title not Nick Diaz. Unless Nick can get passed his wanting to stand and box the whole time. GSP will run around like Condit did or lay on top of him to grind out a decision. Diaz has to instigate the fight and dictate each aspect. If not it's headed to a decision.
Think about this when was the last time GSP finished a fight?

But the difference with GSP is that he doesn't do that because he has to, he does it because he wants to. I don't doubt that he can win fights standing up, but when he senses he's in trouble he goes back to what he's best at. He's a smart fighter and he doesn't want to risk losing the belt.

Just giving you a hard time. His last fight with Condit was actually a really good fight. But he will not shake his current image until he ends another fight in an exciting fashion. Maybe him hating Diaz will make him throw with bad intentions again. Or work extra hard at getting a submission instead of safely grinding it out to a decision.

Oh trust me I was right there with you before his last 2-3 fights. I think GSP is taking this fight personal so I think he will work for a finish and get it.

I'm always on a media lockout because I don't watch the events until the day after. My wife usually works so we make it an event for Sunday.
