Of course; however, apples to oranges is actually a useful and reasonable comparison. |

I think a better comparison would be Crosby vs GSP |
Crosby ain't exactly Gretzky.
Your comparison is now Crosby vs. Patrick Cote. I think we all know who wins that one. |

I can almost guarantee that if GSP was where he is now when you were in Russia, you'd know of him too..
UFC is huge over there isn't it?? |
after footbol, hockey is the most popular sport there and we did follow nhl as well. UFC may be popular but not as popular as ice hockey |

| think about non european countries now...non hockey playing countries...which i think greatly outnumber hockey playing countries, take for example all of ASIA. MMA is huuuuuuuuuge over there...ask someone there if they know who wayne gretzkey is and i doubt u'll get a response. But they all know GSP. |

I think it's Dana White being a bit clever. Stirring up a bit of controversy so that Canadians who don't follow MMA look up GSP's name
there is no such thing as bad publicity? |

If GSP had've been peaking during Gretsky's time, I think they would've been equal in different places....
I'm pretty sure Tyson was just as big as Gretzky was in that era no?? |
yes. but st. pierre is also not tyson, FFS. |

Exactly, there is always a small chance Kos hits him just right but chances are he wont get a chance. GSPs wrestling is light year a head, if he gets into any trouble look for him to take it to the ground.

OK? Kos has great wrestling too, I would say GSP has the advantage Boxing and BJJ. |
