I never desputed that winning can make you a draw...but simply being a draw because you win is very dangerous...you wont always win. Sooner or later we'll find that out with GSP also...unless he quits whilst ahead...but alot of these fighters who cherish winning, and live to train....they probably cant stop or quit, or retire early...which would be the one way to solve this conundrum.

Thats what Winning is all about, to make oneself successful. but if you dont have something other then winning...how do you remain successful when you looose? Thats what its got to do with winning. Have you never heard of a Pyric victory? Have you never heard the phrase about winning the battle but looosing the war? If your pleased to live in the moment...fine...but if you have a family to support, thats irresponsible. I like to see fighters successful, more then winning...and wholistically across the career rather then a single match.

Pyrrhus was a brave King who decided to take on The Roman Empire. He actually managed to defeat the Roman Legions in Battle....but the cost to his own self was so great, it made the victory pretty pointless...and actually made him closer to defeat across the war.
Clay Guida wants to win the Championship belt...he fights against Anthony Pettis, and he won. But what price did his victory cost him? The method of victory he chose means he'll likely have to fight and win more battles before contending...Anthony Pettis yet has time to get the shot BEFORE he does despite this loss. So what favours did he do himself in winning...and is he further away from his goal in victory, then he would have been if he had...for example, stood toe-to-toe with Pettis, gone down in a blaze of glory...to win one more match and challenge Pettis for the title in a grudge and revenge match...? Incase your wondering...Pyrrhus beat the Romans in Battle Twice. Ultimately He lost the War

In that fight Clay seemed very aggressive and busy to me! Looked to me like he was constantly throwing punches and trying to improve and finish. Petties done a good job of defending so he did not get finished!
