“According to what we talked about, he will not fight for the belt again. He will come back for that unique fight that might interest him. That's if GSP comes back... I don't know if he'll do it, but what I know is that, if he does, it will be because he's more interested in super fights”, said the Canadian, during a question and answer session with fans at UFC Dublin, last weekend.
At 34, Georges St Pierre has a professional record of 25 wins and two losses. “Rush”, as he is known, was a two-time UFC welterweight champion and staged one of the organization's biggest upsets in history when he was defeated by Matt Serra, who returned to the event through TUF 4 after being fired in 2007. GPS, however, turned things around, regained the title and kept the belt until the end of 2013, when he retired from MMA.
