UFC 300 main card is yet to be announced, and a lot of people were speculating about Georges St-Pierre’s return, So GSP Responds to UFC 300 Fight Rumors.
Georges St-Pierre, the former two-weight champion in mixed martial arts, has recently responded to the rumors of his comeback for UFC 300. In a recent Q&A session in Thailand, the 42-year-old Canadian athlete made it clear that he will not be returning to the octagon.
Despite being a dream participant for many MMA fans, St-Pierre expressed that he misses the adrenaline and the feeling of victory that comes with winning a fight. However, he acknowledged that he will never experience the feeling of winning another championship and has accepted that reality.
St-Pierre reflected on the ups and downs of life, stating that everything is part of a cycle and one must make peace with it. When specifically asked about UFC 300, scheduled to take place on April 13th in Las Vegas, St-Pierre dismissed the rumors, emphasizing that he has not been offered a fight for the event. He reiterated that he has no desire to make a comeback to mixed martial arts.
The former champion also shared that he was supposed to participate in a grappling competition but had to withdraw due to an injury. St-Pierre partially tore his labrum and rotator cuff in November, and he is still in the process of recovery. Although he can hit pads, he is unable to engage in live wrestling or grappling and must be cautious. The grappling competition was intended to provide a fun experience and a thrill of competition for both himself and the fans.
St-Pierre acknowledged that he has changed as a person since his competitive days. He no longer possesses the same drive and determination that once fueled his pursuit of becoming a champion. While he was mentally unstoppable in the past, willing to do whatever it took to achieve his goals, he has come to terms with the fact that he is not that person anymore.
In conclusion, Georges St-Pierre has firmly stated that he will not be making a return to mixed martial arts, putting an end to the rumors surrounding his participation in UFC 300. As he embraces the next chapter of his life, he reflects on the highs and lows of his career and the acceptance of the natural cycles of life.
