Former UFC welterweight champion, Georges St Pierre returns to the Octagon after more than four years of retirement at UFC 217 on November 4th. The Canadian will try to capture the middleweight title in the main fight against Michael Bisping, who has been trying to provoke him since before the fight was officially announced. GSP, however, says he doesn't care about his rival's insults.

For St. Pierre, the current middleweight champion has serious problems dealing with some of his internal anger and this will make him make mistakes when the two finally meet in the Octagon.
“He is projecting his own image when he insults me. He wants to prove that he is more than an easy fight and he has a negative view of himself. He has many holes that he cannot fill in his life. Deep down, deep down, Bisping is a very angry person. And angry fighters make mistakes”, declared GSP, in an interview with the website of the North American magazine Sports Illustrated.
The duel between St. Pierre and Bisping was announced at the beginning of the year, first without a date to take place. After the Canadian suffered an injury and had to postpone his return, Dana White announced that the fight would no longer happen and that GSP would return to welterweight. The former champion, however, managed to convince Dana to put him back in a title fight against the Englishman.
