However, GSP shouldn't surpass Anderson as the p4p king especially because of the Serra loss.

What of ryo chonan?

GSP nor Cruz are finishing their fights. Meanwhile a good portion of Silva's fights have ended within two rounds and most in highlight reel fashion.

Not even Jon Jones has finished all his fights and his DQ didn't do him any favors on paper.

Yes, GSP is clearly the better PPV draw.... Does that make him better? Is he more exciting?

Dont know about that. If you see Dana after some of silva's fights(vitor, forrest, etc) he seems pumped and legitimately excited.... vs. how he seems after a GSP fight.

He also has to defend GSP constantly when people complain about his style.

Ill be the first to say that I didnt like the Maia fight....

But the funny thing is Anderson actually threw more power strikes against Maia than GSP did against Koscheck. If GSP gets a dominant decision, it is the normal and to be expected. If Anderson gets a dominate decision, it is a horrible performance....
