Did you not say that Penn losing to GSP mattered in the p4p rankings?
It's a fucking mega fight matchup.
What has he done better than Silva? He's beaten Fitch, and Hughes twice. He got KO'd in his own weightclass by a 9-6 fighter. He string together some more wins and I'll move him up.
GSP is a WW, always fights at WW, him going up for a special 1 fight deal shouldnt affect his p4p ranking that much, BJ bascially moved up and stayed there for a long time, big difference
GSP beat Hughes who is/was the best 170 fighter in MMA history, by TKO and Sub, beat Fitch and has revenged both his lossses brutally
Silva has lost to 2 b level fighters, his biggest wins is Dan who has under preformed at 185 IMO and many others, Franklin is a good fighter but got his rep beating so-so fighters
None of Silvas wins compare to the 2 Hughes wins and his 4 losses are worse than GSP's 2 which he has avenged, also SIlva has fought 3 straight fights against lower comp and GSP has to fight the number 1 contenders every fight besides Serra who won a game showLiquidrob's Top 10 Fighters Rankings

Being undefeated by getting a 'draw' in a fight he lost, beating Bisping, and beating a washed up chuck. His only win is over Forrest. His resume isn't up to par, by your own definition.So, metaphorically speaking, our physiology basically has the universe mapped out and you're thinking it needs to be taught addition & subtraction.

No, I posted GSP's record, BJ happens to be on it, you started saying the win didnt mean much and like I said before and my last post, the first win means somethingLiquidrob's Top 10 Fighters Rankings

No it wasnt, but being the champ of that division gives you a boost, I was also in the thought he would beat machida, that was my bad and I am taking my lumps for that, lolLiquidrob's Top 10 Fighters Rankings

To that point, Machida is high in the p4p rankings and he doesnt have the best resume
Biggest wins are Tito and Rashad and has more decisions than finishesLiquidrob's Top 10 Fighters Rankings

That's all there is for him at his weight because he's cleared it out. Now he's moving up to fight a top contender at the weight above him.So, metaphorically speaking, our physiology basically has the universe mapped out and you're thinking it needs to be taught addition & subtraction.

No, dipshit. You specifically singled out wins, and you put BJx2. Maybe you should keep track of your own bullshit.So, metaphorically speaking, our physiology basically has the universe mapped out and you're thinking it needs to be taught addition & subtraction.

He didn't fight 7 straight at ww. Some were at MW and LHW. He was never that big though. He was still a LW. He was still 20 pounds smaller than GSP.
The only difference is, GSP would still have to cut to make 185, while BJ had to gain to get close to 170. BJ is a much smaller fighter than GSP, while Anderson isn't much larger than GSP.
Yep, Hughes and Fitch. Just like I said.
He beat Dan, who is the only person to hold two Pride belts. Franklin is a good fighter, and he got absolutely destroyed. It's not like Silva just got by him, he beat him down, twice.
That's all there is for him at his weight because he's cleared it out. Now he's moving up to fight a top contender at the weight above him.
I just mentioned Hughes and Fitch because you dont think Kos, BJ, Trigg, etc...are good wins which they were at the time, unlike Irvin, Cote and Thales
Dans Pride MW is questionable, he had like a non-title loss or some shit, the MW belt in Pride wasnt worht much, they were always a HW and LW org, I never said Pride had great mid weight fighters, so his Pride MW or whatever they called it wasnt that prestigous, thats why he always had to go up to fight to get good comp
He didnt clear out MW, he just didnt fight the top MWs in his last 3 fights, Okami and Maia should have been fights for him or the UF could have actaully tried to get someone for him to fight outside of the orgLast edited by Liquidrob; 05-30-2009, 03:16 PM.Liquidrob's Top 10 Fighters Rankings

You clearly use both BJ fights as a reason that GSP is higher on the p4p ladder than Silva. Thanks for playing, dumbfuck.So, metaphorically speaking, our physiology basically has the universe mapped out and you're thinking it needs to be taught addition & subtraction.

also, you double got me in that post because I only mentioned 1 Hughes win! so that means I dont count the 2nd win, you got me again, woo!
you are clearly just reaching now and just posting to post, I have explained like 10 times that the first BJ win means something and the 2nd 1 not so much
I could even make a better arguement for Silva being higher ranked than GSP than you, but you harp on a win vs BJ and dont post anything releventLast edited by Liquidrob; 05-30-2009, 03:38 PM.Liquidrob's Top 10 Fighters Rankings

I'm not harping on anything. You brought BJ up, not me. You're the one who said that his wins over BJ are a reason that he's higher on the p4p ladder. And then said losing to Silva wouldn't matter. GSP and Silva are closer to the same size than BJ and GSP are.
You can't stop contradicting yourself.
BJ was the 170 champ, fought 7 straight fights over 170, when GSP beat BJ the first time BJ was a 170 and above fighter and fought another fight at 170 after the loss against Hughes
you still dont get it and never will, I already explained the difference between the first and 2nd fight and you are still harping on itLiquidrob's Top 10 Fighters Rankings
