Your comment never pissed me off.
I did, however, find your tone disrespectful and uncalled for.

. I may have said something that was stupid in your eyes but all you provided was a one liner ending in a bunch of ? marks where I at least tried to explain myself and keep the discussion going - until I was attacked anyway.

I think you need to go back and read your first comment...

Yeah! Because James Irvine is a more impressive win then BJ Penn. What the fuck kind of comment is this?

Selective memory, sir?

It is also incredibly arrogant to anoint yourself the winner of a discussion as its going on inside that thread and having a friend back you up with the same garbage

My arrogance knows no bounds, but it was TBear who anointed me the winner. I simply stated that I dominated you.
Further, it is still my contention that GSP has NEVER stepped up a weight class to fight let alone a former champion in that weight class. He has fought 2 former champions from the weight class below him.
Now, quality of opponents:
Anderson Silva: 2 HOF'ers (Henderson, Franklin ), 3 former champions (Henderson, Griffin, and Franklin *A little known fact here is that James Irvin is also a former HW champion in WEC but I will overlook that as the WEC HW Championship is not highly regarded and rightfully so), 1 Olympic Wrestler, 1 National champion wrestler, and an ADCC champion. Anderson has faced 4 legitimate BJJ Black Belts (Maia, Leites, Marquardt, and Lutter)
GSP: 2 HOF'ers (Penn, Hughes), 4 Former champions (Hughes, Penn, Sherk, and Serra), 1 D1 National Champion Wrestler, 1 D2 National Champion Wrestler, and a world JJ Champion (Penn). GSP has faced 3 legitimate BJJ Black Belts (Penn, Serra, and Fitch- Mayhem did not have his yet)
I won't debate that Georges has faced the stiffer comp but it's hardly a landslide.
