And I don't think going to decision should be a knock against a fighter. GSP and Anderson are different fighters. GSP's domination of Fitch was equally impressive as Anderson's KO's or TKO's over the various fighters he has fought in the UFC.
I gotta disagree again and say dominating John Fitch and knocking out Rich Franklin or subbing Hendo are not even in the same ballpark much less equal.

And you are correct Silva looked bad against Chonan with that whole flying sizzer heel bullshit but, over the same time period it's my opinion that Silva has won his fights against top level competition in more impressive fashion.
