Remember, GSP was the guy that was able to take down and control both Hughes and Koscheck the two best wrestlers in the WW division.
I defintely don't disagree with ya. He's certainly not ready for the likes of GSP, but his length and his strength combined with his wrestling background make him tough for anyone. I give him a pass on the Clementi fight, he took that on 10 days notice and had to cut a ton of weight, which he never did actually make. Kid has a ton of potential IMO, I can't wait to see him fight again.
