Georges St-Pierre (GSP): The Best to Ever Do It


Georges St-Pierre (GSP) retired on Thursday in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. In my judgement, he’s not merely the best fighter ever in mixed martial arts (MMA) history, but had one of the best-executed professional careers we’ve ever seen. From his debut to ascension to reign to sabbatical to return to retirement, no one has ever done it quite like GSP.


Winning UFC titles in the welterweight and middleweight division in the champ champ era was important, but so is having the most title defenses ever. He’s done both, both accomplishments each of their own era. There were never scandals around his name, no run-ins with anti-doping authorities, nothing. While he butted heads with UFC President Dana White, he always did right by the sport. He is the greatest of all time.

  1. I won't argue that St Pierre is the goat but he does not have the most title defenses in UFC history. GSP has 9. Silva has 10. DJ has 11.

  2. He looked out for the sport? wtf are you talking about. He fucked up the middleweight division only got the Bisping fight because it was in his contract to defend the belt if he won. He didn't he vacated the belt and didn't fulfill his end of the deal that is pure cherry picking.

  3. GSP only has 1 fight under USADA, so how can he possibly be the GOAT, when drug testing is a criteria for GOAT status?

  4. I wish you would use these thumbnails between slides during the Monday Morning Analyst breakdowns.

  5. Okay GSP probably is the GOAT. A phenomenal career. But, Luke your emphatic repetition of “the game” just made me think of HHH the whole time! 😂

  6. Rectum slurping meathead. Are you in-toks-a-cated? Khabib called him out for November. He retired.

    It’s a new era, a new culture, Jones will surpass in 7 days. If not The Eagle will.

    No Serra interview?
