Ostalo je još malo više od mesec dana do povratka Georges St-Pierra u oktagon, on će se suočiti sa Michael Bispingom na UFC217 u New Yorku i borba će da bude za pojas u srednjoj kategoriji UFC-a. GSP je izjavio da želi da šokia ceo svet i da pobedi Bispinga prekidom i tako osvoji pojas srednje kategorije UFC-a.

Izjava GSP-a za Sports Illustrated:




It’s much different. I got a lot more tools in my arsenal. I’ve been working on different things. If he’s [Bisping] expecting me the same as I was, it’s a big mistake on his part. I’m going to come out, and I want to shock the world.
I’m the challenger. I’m not the champion this time. So I have to take the fight to him. I have to expect that if I’m going to a decision, and the fight is close, it’s not going to go my way. So I’m going to go there, and I’m going to put everything I have to finish him, fight like there’s no tomorrow.

UFC217 će se održati 4. novembra u Madison Square Gardenu.
