UFC 94 Georges St-Pierre Vs. BJ Penn your thoughts?

[Heavy D]

True about the takedown D, but I wouldn't quite call him skilled in Greco-Roman wrestling...I don't recall any instances where he ever did ANYTHING with the clinch, etc. His takedown D was stellar, but that's about all I ever saw from him wrestling wise.

And I also realize I'm in the big time minority in this issue. Like I said earlier, I equate him to Mike Tyson. Tyson had a tight guard and some of the most explosive fists the sport has seen in quite some time, but to me, he was never a truly great boxer. And while I understand the whole D'Amato thing, once Tyson was "found out," people ate him alive. Same thing with Chuck. He did great and beat many people, but people can now see Chuck's pony doing its one trick from a mile away.

And yeah, I realize I'm essentially just brewing a shit storm, but I just never really saw how people couldn't pick his stand up apart.
