    Wink George st pierre having a hard time with smaller opponants

    I am not taking nothing away from Matt Serra or BJ Penn but GSP got some serious beating from both theses guys.

    Seems like he is having trouble getting close to smaller opponants.

    When i saw the GSP vs Penn ppv GSP lost the first round and he got bloodied up and bang real hard.

    Matt Serra fight he also had a hard time getting close to Matt to hit him.

    Matt leg kicks where mental.

    i dont think it was so much a problem of getting close as it was a problem of not throwing any significant combinations. he was just throwing single strikes that didnt appear to be very heavy. also, not to take anything from matt serra, but, i still beleive he kinda got lucky. nine times outta ten gsp wins this fight and id bet on that.

    I dont' think serra threw much before GSP slipped. When he tried he ate counter punch.

    GSP didn't seem to have much of a problem with Trigg, Sherk, or Hughes.

    GSP got beat, end of story. Height played no part, it is the aggressivness of his opponents that he has a problem with.

    i gotta agree with tml4l here. the slip was a result of the looping punch that he receive in the backside of the head while trying to duck underneath. or like tml4l said "he got rocked and lossed his balance"

    i was shocked what was happening.
    good for serra though.
    i dont think gsp has difficulties with smaller opponents.
    just serra took his chances.

    GSP lost the fight fare and square. Even if he did slip so what, serra saw it and reacted on it and won the fight.
