    GSP is one of the two fighters that got me into the sport a decade ago, so happy for him to make a winning comeback, always going to be my favourite fighter.

    All my poll picks have been wrong tonight, but I'm not disappointed. Love watching this due to its unpredictability, what a sport.

    That sub set up was poetry in motion. He completely set Bisping up.

    Card of the year. Nailed it!!

    Him and Anderson Silva for me. Think Silva has tarnished his legacy somewhat but GSP is one of the good ones.

    Thought all 3 title fights would be retention by decision. Shows what I know.

    Think Bisping's gotta retire now. He's had his moment, headlined a few big cards etc. He's not going to get his belt back, there's nothing left for him.

    Is he saying he will defend or not?

    So when Bisping has to defend his belt against someone under pension age he loses.

    I'm not surprised motherfluffers.

    Bisping is a warrior.

    GSP is the greatest by miles.

    Beast.

    In true Canadian fashion, GSP has already apologised three times in his interview. :pac:

    Whittaker or Woodley, those are two tough fights ahead for him. He’d be doing brilliantly to beat either of those.

    Rogan is right to be fair. Bisping was the perfect opponent for GSP at this stage of his career.
