“I think Usman, at the moment, is the best pound-for-pound. In terms of performance, he is the best today, in addition to being a very active competitor. I also like watching Adesanya, Ngannou, Cyryl Gane, Alexander Volkanovsky and all the champions”, explained GSP.

Another UFC champion that Georges St-Pierre sees favorably is the flyweight (up to 56,7 kg) Brandon Moreno. The Canadian was very impressed with the Mexican's performance in the fight in which he won the belt, against the Brazilian Deiveson Figueiredo.

“If we are talking about who is the greatest, I think Moreno is also very impressive. The way he defeated (Deiveson) Figueiredo was incredible. It was a wonderful performance”, praised the former champion.

Georges St-Pierre hasn't seen action since winning the UFC middleweight belt by submitting Michael Bisping in the main fight of UFC 217, in November 2017. In a recent interview, however, the Canadian stated that he is not closing the door on a possible return to MMA.
