Its why GSP has to close distance without striking and just shoot, and maybe the first 2 get stuffed, but eventually I think GSP should be able to get him down, now while doing that, he need to avoid counters and knees.

But the point is that Anderson has proven he does not care one way or the other. He will happily dance for five rounds to pick up the victory.
So you are suggesting that GSP should just shoot well if Anderson doesn't respect GSPs hands at all it makes stuffing a shot easier also you are suggesting that GSP should shoot from distance which brings in Anderson kneeing his face off.
GSP needs to set his takedowns with strikes. That is the way he fights. I think his hands are tidy enough to be able to do it but it means getting within striking distance of one of the best strikers in MMA history.
