I disagree. GSP has always had a ridiculous jab, and extremely great timing and range. While shorter, he still had range on Bisping. I’m not saying this is what you saw, but I’m assuming you saw Bisping “our move” GSP as they were feinting and taking shots. GSP notoriously fights efficiently, and that was the case here. His standup was near perfection against a bigger and more strike minded opponent

I thought Bisping was extremely tentative and respectful of the takedowns that GSP willingly does, which made him less aggressive. He definitely did more damage on his back then I thought he would have when GSP had him there.
