The former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) welterweight champ Georges St-Pierre told the world he was coming back to the UFC… After 3 years of layoff, GSP’s return has been long awaited by fans…
It didn’ t exactly take very long to reach the ears of the MMA community…
That’s when the fantasy / dream fights started…
Conor McGregor’s name got tossed around a lot, maybe the most out of all the possible “debut” fights for St-Pierre…
As if he didn’t have enough options, St-Pierre made the possibility of his dropping down to lightweight even more possible…
So yay! We could actually get a Conor McGregor VS Georges St-Pierre, right?
NOPE…
“(We were) not even close (to making a fight between McGregor and St-Pierre),” White said (via MMA Junkie). “Georges said he could make 155 pounds. But let’s be honest here – everyone wants to take a shot at Michael Bisping. They think he’s beatable, and obviously Georges St-Pierre is no different. So he’s going to step up and try to take his 185-pound title.”
So…
GSP…
Is still fighting Michael Bisping…
Yeah, I’m still really, really, really, psyched…
And NO! We don’t have a date yet for the fight…
