I wouldn't qualify his performance as sensational... when is the last time he finished a fight? Where are his highlight reels??
The kid is very technical, and it's like he's putting a Jedi mind trick on his adversaries that make them choke, but it's nothing the fans are screaming to see again!!
His personality is so blend that people are comparing him to the American Psycho

Yeah - it's strange with Rory. Cats like myself wanna support the guy being a fellow westcoast Canadian and shit ... but yo ... he's about as interesting as a peanut butter sandwich. The monotone delivery ... the half- to one-sentence answers in interviews & whatnot (listened to a few of his spots on podcasts in recent weeks, and the shit was dull, as expected). The Canadian Psycho persona and "not wanting to be a superstar". Can't stand all the MMA journalists in Canada saying he's our "next GSP" over the years. Sure ... he's a major talent as we've seen over the past 4+ years ... but shit ... GSP was one of the P4P best the sport will ever see. A cat who changed the game with his dominance while he was at his best prior to the knee problems & the minor Serra KO hiccup. Rory's still young in the game ... but we need to see him stopping people like BJ Penn & T' Woodley when he's got their number from opening bell to the end of the 15 mins. It's one thing to stop people like Mike Guymon, Che Mills, and Mike Pyle ... but they're NOT on the same level as these upper-echelon guys. * Not just toying with them (Penn / Woodley). Finish them off. Stop playing with your food.

Fuck the BS, he dominated Maia after being grounded and pummeled. Then completely null on the feet in Woodley.
I agree but I give him way more credit than GSP when it comes to finishes. GSP pre-Serra was a monster--going all out. After he gained revenge via stoppage, he was happy to bring guys down and if the stoppage happened it happened. Rory brutalizes his opponents.
Case in point. Look at GSP's face after his "win" over Condit....and this was AFTER Condit spent most of his time on his back!!
Rory, I feel will beat Hendricks--a tough guy himself with KO power, though Condit is the man to beat. But first I want to see Condit-Woodley 2.
Yeah - like him or not (Macdonald) ... when he's on his game and picking his opponent apart he's a bad muthafucka. Very precise with his striking. MMA's so hard to predict. Hendricks went 15 mins with Condit / 25 with GSP / 25 with Lawler. Whereas he finished off Fitch (who went 25 mins with GSP) in 12 seconds, and Kampmann (who's always been a tough bastard) in some 46 seconds. As for Lawler ... he finished off Rory in 15 mins, and made quick work of other UFC opponents in his post-Strikeforce resurgence. As for Woodley ... shit ... made quick work of Hieron & Koscheck ... got blasted prior to that by Marquardt (of all people) ... didn't have too much trouble with Condit in less than 2 rounds, but got styled upon for 15 mins by Rory.

Yeah man. They won't be rushing back to Vancity anytime soon. Also, the UFC needs to address their over saturated roster, Tv contract commitment(s) and PPV schedule. Many cards don't feel special anymore, and several of the FOX cards have had better main cards than the actual PPVs. That's telling ...
