GSP via being a more technically sound wrestler than Sonnen. His fight IQ is high enough that he will actually pass Anderson's guard and then lay on him. 5 RD UD  50-45.

Anderson would dominate GSP. Chael is a way, way better wrestler than GSP. GSP may have better sub defense but he wouldn't be able to get the takedown, Anderson's range control is too damn good. Anderson wins this with the jab eventually setting up a 1 shot KO.

Yup. The only guys GSP has fought who are better strikers than him are Serra, who he got KO'd by once and dominated once, and Alves, who, like Serra, has no defense for GSP's wrestling. Anderson is a far better striker than GSP, and actually has a range on him and a great outside striking game. St. Pierre dropped two rounds to Jake Shields... don't see anyway Anderson doesn't win.

@Minotauro Well, Shields did poke him in the eye a kabillion times. 

@Kallous BW-LW and WW-MW. I assume LHW-HW is next, even though it makes no sense. 205 to 265 is just ******** to compare.

@Minotauro How is it you think Sonnen is a better wrestler than GSP? GSP has about a billion more passes than Chael, and roughly a 4/5 takedown percentage to Chael's (roughly) 2/3. Also, Chael's takedown defense isn't as good as GSP's either.

I dont like GSP at all! But seriously GSP would hold Anderson down and frustrate him if they fought. Sonnen isnt as good of a wrestler as GSP and look what he did to Silva.
