Just poverty bro - you might have been raised in that, I was - 'intelligence' in the form of big words leads to getting your head caved in. Unless you have a big pack to fight within you're better shutting the fuck up and doing nothing obvious.
Well don’t speak unless spoken to Nothing nice to say don’t say nothing at all Share your secrets with your loved ones and those your surround yourself with Being underestimated is an advantage And I agree completely with Nate always listening to nick, I use to think why listen to him when he hasn’t succeeded as much as others who he could lean towards, but some people have so much strength and knowledge it just takes the right person to understand and use it when others don’t understand.
Respectfully you literally should give him a pass on DC. Mostly because Daniel"UncleTom"Cormier keeps on bringing up his personal life which has fuck all to do with there fight so if that fat crybaby fuck can dish out the insults he should be able to take being booed by randoms for it and not cry AGAIN.
HE is a classy guy.. what was the worst thing he siad? "I was not impressed with your performance"? lol.. even polite when trying to talk shit lol. Sometimes ppl forget these fighters on TV are people.. with feelings and emotions.
i dont think there's any "mask" on gsp, like some others have said. ive always seen him as just being a nice guy whose intrests happened to lead him to fighting. he never seemed fake and you could tell when he was pissed like against bj and later towards the diaz fight. he just seems like the nicest guy in a not nice sport. i am drunk and completly biased however since he got me into ufc before ufc124
gsp just proved why nick is damn smart. he said "i dont need to hate my opponent to fight them" but then goes on to say that he cant get motivated if he's fighting a nice guy. clearly something nick has fogured out that gsp hasnt
fabrizzio monsalve are u slow? U didn't read what he said. He said Nick makes himself hate his opponents to make it easier and GSP says it's hard to whoop nice guys.
What a fight! GSP vs Diaz! Respect to GSP giving Nick the credit he deserves and not caring about "will Dana get upset". I have the upmost respect for GSP. He speaks the truth. The Diaz Brothers and I'm a huge fan, they do NOT friend the opponent and prefer to be angered at them. They have said this themselves. As a parent I can respect what GSP is saying about controlling himself as he deals with things in his head but it doesn't mean I have a problem with the Diaz Brother's because we all have different up bringing and also how we think. They are smart and such good fighters. Never let money or being famous change them. Respect to GSP seeing the real Nick 😉
I hope Nick wins. It has been a while since we have seen the St Pierre that fought BJ Penn the 2nd time around. He's been very respectful and professional to all his opponents lately and it is stifling him. When GSP fights with a chip on his shoulder, he is one of the most dominant fighters in the world.
Great guy, great questions, great answers. "I stand for something bigger than me". I was a fan of GSP, but now I'm a not just a fan I really admire and respect his character. Thankx for the great interview.
GSP you are our idol , our role model don't care what people say keep doing what you're doing because you do it well,if people are booooing it means you are doing something right ! Ain't nobody in the division or the all mixed martial arts area can enter your mental game that's why they are trying to distruct you!And for those who say his fights are boring , maybe not exciting in the first view but look who he beat all the way till now ! Best pound for pound and most well rounded and humble guy
Gotta love this guy...truly GSP has been a man for many years. Some never graduated into truly being men until they are well in their late 30s or early 40s but I can say GSP has for the longest been a man and a man of legacy....and this while retaining his youth.
LMAOOOO. i can't stop laughing. the question karyn asked GSP about Nick wanting to fight him on sight. GSP said if he walked pass Nick on the street and if he felt his health was in jeopardy and there was no way out. He would be swinging for the fences.LOL.
I don't understand how anybody can disrespect GSP. When a class act guy gets injured and his JOB is on the line and people start talking shit?! GSP is a true champ, and i hope i'll see him in the octagon soon!
neither of them are crazy the only reason nick acts like that is because he feels he has an edge if he acts mean and plays the mind game. on top of that he's from stockton and hes very smart so he makes for one tough guy to fight
Nick Diaz has something no other fighter has ever had against GSP before and that's the fact he reminds GSP of when GSP was bullied in his younger days. Laugh all you want at that and say what you want, BUT, that's a HUGE advantage for Diaz and GSP is showing that DIaz is in his head.
never heard GSP speak at length before...i have to say he seems like a guy who is honest and has overcome a lot...having said this, i dont think this is what true UFC fans want to hear and see from a fighters...Diaz epitomizes the early days of the UFC which is why more people prefer to watch his fights, love him or hate him.
@RamwJam420 im a huge BJJ fan, but it has been proven that you can shut it down if your a good wrestler with good submission defense. GSP isn't likely to be submitted or swept very often. |Once he gets on top, you likely have 5 minutes of light GNP and tight top control before you get a break
Makes you question who is crazier the guy who doesn't mind beating someone to a bloody pulp or the guy who has to hate the person to beat the person to a bloody.
Ha ha GSP is the same as Goku. This guy is just a genuine nice guy at heart that is curious to see how far he can push himself, he wants to be that ultimate athlete. I respect him very highly. This man is a true warrior at heart, I hope he starts really fighting guys and trying to win, go for the finish not the decision.
True class act Gsp is. This match with Diaz and Condit is going to be awesome and very closely contested, but in my opinion Gsp is just in a whole different level. He will make quick work of the winner of the two which I believe Diaz will come on to of Condit. Gsp is just mentally and physically to strong. War Rush St. Pierre.
Powerful GSP. He is a legend, it's cool to see his english skill improve aswell. A very very intelligent guy. GSP vs any good fighter will be interesting. Can this man really be beaten by anyone :) top training and mentality
Anyone else notice that GSP has come a long way in his English vocabulary? Man, he's not stuttering trying to find words anymore. Good for him. I like both him and Diaz for totally different reasons.
Nick and Nate both deserve title shots because they have earned it in their fights, not because they are 'whining'. If Nick was so obsessed and desperate for a title shot, why didn't he turn up to the GSP press conference when he got one? He should have won the Condit fight and therefore EARNING another title shot!
@86Blessed86 Yea i agree, GSP has said himself hes a dark person inside but he is polite for the media because he wants to be a role model for kids. But he was bullied as a kid and had a rough childhood so he couldve easily gone the other way.
@Antix that wasn't the point of the video. Nick portrays a certain attitude as if he is crazy. Georges sees through that bad boy persona and he is saying that he is smarter than what ppl give him credit for.
GSP is ahead of schedule cause he was never actually hurt, he's waiting for condit and diaz to take each other out so he only has to worry about one of them. stockton.
Thanks to GSP, i actually started excising for real and doing sprints and jumps like an athlete, well help to many other things of course but, GSP is my favorite Athelete. and i think thats saying a lot.
or the guy who is "humble" but has a shit load of darkness in his head, or the guy who is just straight forward with who he really is and has nothing to hide..... lol
GSP did great against Condit! It was a good fight. Condit did threaten GSP though, landing harsh shots from the bottom as well as that headkick in the second round. Glad to see GSP back and once again as the champ. Hopefully we will see Diaz vs. St. Pierre in the near-future :)
Nick diaz has his number.. nick has top notch ground game different style from other black belts, and his stand up game not to be messed with.. i like gsp but nick wants to put on a good show for the fanz while winning and finishing fights..
In my opinion, Nick won 3 rounds of his fight with Condit. Who should have won the fight is debatable, but what isn't debatable is the fact that Nick is way better fighter than Condit.
Man, the only reason why I could dislike GSP is because he's just too good. I mean, he has the attitude that everyone should have and it almost makes him look perfect. Fuck that shit... im jealous...
GSP has "demon in his head" and people "have no idea how dark he is in his head." LOL. When you've taken the soul and heart out of strong men like Penn, Fitch, Serra, Hughes, Koscheck, etc. and chewed them up along with their rich, tasty courage, I think it's fair to say that no one should mistake GSP's kindness for weakness!
@amer1cancer2753 I have seen it, i saw how he reacted when Diaz called him out after beating penn, And GSP had a Carlos Conduit fight coming up. He got so mad that time he called Dana to stop the Carlos fight and begged for Diaz, that was all emotion.
Probably but I understand why GSP won't. He wants to stay in the sport for a long time. Nick would fight cause he's ready to retire at anytime and doesn't give a shit. I say ready to retire cause I still think he has another fight or 2 in him atleast but it he is happy to be where he is at right now. GSP wants to keep moving forward
GSP is a phenomenal fighter.....however i honestly believe whoever he faces out of diaz condit will beat him. whoever it is will bring to the octagon a self belief and confidence from a winning streak that GSP wont be able to manufacture in rehab. I'm not hating on GSP i just think the next fight he will have will honestly be his toughest to date.
@MrDestruction25 lol. Anderson Silva fights at 185 lbs. Jon Jones fights at 205. Why would they fight GSP? That doesn't even make sense. I would hope fighters in a higher weight class would win.
@100percentNatural100: Serra & Penn are both Natural LW's. They both walk around at or near 160.lbs GSP walks around @ about 195.lbs cuts down to 170 then 24 hours later on fight night he is back in the 190's. He hasn't finished a fight in so long he has earned his nickname ~ G.iant S.leeping P.ill.
GSP calling Nick "fake" is really unrealistic because Nick has been acting this way WAY LONGER than he has been famous. He was talking shit in the cage since day 1 when he was NO ONE! He talks about media as if they portray him as a different human being when he's really just being a realist, when he's just trying to be a true human being. GET REAL
just curious why diaz wont take a fight before georges if he wins?? makes me think he knows if he fights hendrick, kos, fitch, pierce, story, sanchez, ellenberger first he will lose. He loses this mass payday of GSP fight. Anyone whos been watchin nick since the beginning knows any top wrestler will still easily handle him
@lanemendous Yeah. And he does have a killer instinct. He said that one thing he did negatively is that "over analysis leads to paralysis". He started thinking cerebrally too much. I respect him for his great self awareness. I think this experience is going to make him legend. If he heals back 100% he is going to be hard to defeat for anybody. Its easy to like Nick Diaz but GSP is a true humble martial artist that we can all learn from.
Truly nice guys don't become successful MMA athletes. I don't know if it's self-respectful to pretend to be something you're not but it is what it is. I think he just called out his own integrity by saying he 's just pretending to be civil. Bigger then yourself... tell yourself what you have to. With that mentality he'll retire and move to to actually helping people instead of being a prize fighter. It's hard being real in a world built on lies.
+Jose Daniel Herrera I truly think being real sets you free if you have the courage to do it. It cuts out the middle man. Self Brutal honesty with the self is the best and bravest thing you can do. And second being honest with the world. You can be real and honest with out being a punk . I respect Diaz because there's no Mask! People might hate you for it but deep down they respect you for it. GSP is on a different journey, he;s all about being Aligned with himself witch is also a discipline in its self. We can learn from both these fine fighting men i recon. :o)
Shows how clever GSP is by recognizing how smart Diaz is, so many underrate the brains of the latter.
Much respect to Georges
GSP is a so called white guy. Smart? He had up opportunities up the ass. If there's under privilege, there is over privileged.
@@toErehWon You should do less drugs and if that's not an option, do more. Please leave that weird state of mind you're in
@@toErehWon Genuinely hope you achieve nothing with this mindset. That'll teach you to stop being racist and take some responsibility.
There is a reason why Nate does whatever Nick says - Nick is very intelligent, just not raised to show intelligence or speak using big words.
Just poverty bro - you might have been raised in that, I was - 'intelligence' in the form of big words leads to getting your head caved in.
Unless you have a big pack to fight within you're better shutting the fuck up and doing nothing obvious.
Well don’t speak unless spoken to
Nothing nice to say don’t say nothing at all
Share your secrets with your loved ones and those your surround yourself with
Being underestimated is an advantage
And I agree completely with Nate always listening to nick, I use to think why listen to him when he hasn’t succeeded as much as others who he could lean towards, but some people have so much strength and knowledge it just takes the right person to understand and use it when others don’t understand.
gsp is a classy guy..just a nice guy...one of the very few who never talk shit
Martin Kove all of ufc champions dont talk shit, velasquez, gsp, mighty mouse... maybe except ronda rousey ^^
Respectfully you literally should give him a pass on DC.
Mostly because Daniel"UncleTom"Cormier keeps on bringing up his personal life which has fuck all to do with there fight so if that fat crybaby fuck can dish out the insults he should be able to take being booed by randoms for it and not cry AGAIN.
HE is a classy guy.. what was the worst thing he siad? "I was not impressed with your performance"? lol.. even polite when trying to talk shit lol. Sometimes ppl forget these fighters on TV are people.. with feelings and emotions.
nice to be over privileged. No needs.
i dont think there's any "mask" on gsp, like some others have said. ive always seen him as just being a nice guy whose intrests happened to lead him to fighting. he never seemed fake and you could tell when he was pissed like against bj and later towards the diaz fight. he just seems like the nicest guy in a not nice sport. i am drunk and completly biased however since he got me into ufc before ufc124
GSP, we all have demons in our head. It was amazing to watch this interview after re-watching the UFC 217 main event.
this is why GSP is my favorite fighter, he has class.
gsp just proved why nick is damn smart. he said "i dont need to hate my opponent to fight them" but then goes on to say that he cant get motivated if he's fighting a nice guy. clearly something nick has fogured out that gsp hasnt
fabrizzio monsalve are u slow? U didn't read what he said. He said Nick makes himself hate his opponents to make it easier and GSP says it's hard to whoop nice guys.

I miss GSP!!!!
I'm 30. And he still a rolemodel to me.
omar bernal What does age have to do with role models? He's still older than you anyway.
Exactly he's older. Aren't some role models supposed to be old
+nunya businezz he is in good condition..although getting older and not FIGTHING
I hope Nick wins. It has been a while since we have seen the St Pierre that fought BJ Penn the 2nd time around. He's been very respectful and professional to all his opponents lately and it is stifling him. When GSP fights with a chip on his shoulder, he is one of the most dominant fighters in the world.
THANKS Karyn. This was great interview of GSP, and you got a lot of great moments from him. Muchas gracias luv.
Great guy, great questions, great answers.
"I stand for something bigger than me".
I was a fan of GSP, but now I'm a not just a fan I really admire and respect his character.
Thankx for the great interview.
great interview, ready to watch part 2 now

True class. Extraordinary man.
Un vrai représentant du Québec. Je choisis GSP comme notre emblème nationale.
gsp-"he's not crazy, he's very smart" diaz-"im not paranoid, im just not stupid"
GSP is one stand up gentleman... this is how the whole world should be like...
I don't understand how anybody can disrespect GSP. When a class act guy gets injured and his JOB is on the line and people start talking shit?!
GSP is a true champ, and i hope i'll see him in the octagon soon!
neither of them are crazy the only reason nick acts like that is because he feels he has an edge if he acts mean and plays the mind game. on top of that he's from stockton and hes very smart so he makes for one tough guy to fight
gsp is true gentleman with a real class
anybody who thinks he is scared of diaz or he is faking injury or he is on ped are out of their mind
GSP is the most gracious champion and a true legend who's legacy is growing daily. Most definitely an incredible athlete/martial artist/human being.
get better george. good luck with the recovery. wanna see you fight again.
How does a guy this collected, self aware and reflective have the fire to go in a cage and beat the crap out of someone?
Karyn,you are the best MMA Interviewer! Luv ya girl!!!!!
Nick Diaz has something no other fighter has ever had against GSP before and that's the fact he reminds GSP of when GSP was bullied in his younger days. Laugh all you want at that and say what you want, BUT, that's a HUGE advantage for Diaz and GSP is showing that DIaz is in his head.
Wow ! George's english has improved alot , much better "riddum"...I'm very impressed by this performance.
never heard GSP speak at length before...i have to say he seems like a guy who is honest and has overcome a lot...having said this, i dont think this is what true UFC fans want to hear and see from a fighters...Diaz epitomizes the early days of the UFC which is why more people prefer to watch his fights, love him or hate him.

nice statement. on the realz though. i think the one who has control of his emotions (GSP) will always be a ahead of the game
Makes you question who is crazier the guy who doesn't mind beating someone to a bloody pulp or the guy who has to hate the person to beat the person to a bloody.
GSP's English is so much better these days, and he looks huge. Respect to him always.
@KarynBryant even basic video editors have some sort of audio mixing. mma heat needs to step their game up
Ha ha GSP is the same as Goku. This guy is just a genuine nice guy at heart that is curious to see how far he can push himself, he wants to be that ultimate athlete. I respect him very highly.

Lot of kids look up to you, stay a hero.
Spoke like a true Gentleman.
George will always be a class act and a legend
Anyone else notice that GSP has come a long way in his English vocabulary? Man, he's not stuttering trying to find words anymore. Good for him. I like both him and Diaz for totally different reasons.
this is a real man dont talk shit, talk with the hands when its time to talk
Nick and Nate both deserve title shots because they have earned it in their fights, not because they are 'whining'. If Nick was so obsessed and desperate for a title shot, why didn't he turn up to the GSP press conference when he got one? He should have won the Condit fight and therefore EARNING another title shot!
He really is succeeding in being a role model.
@86Blessed86 Yea i agree, GSP has said himself hes a dark person inside but he is polite for the media because he wants to be a role model for kids. But he was bullied as a kid and had a rough childhood so he couldve easily gone the other way.
GSP & Anderson Silva's cauliflower ear aren't near as bad as most veteran fighters. Gangster.
@Antix that wasn't the point of the video. Nick portrays a certain attitude as if he is crazy. Georges sees through that bad boy persona and he is saying that he is smarter than what ppl give him credit for.
GSP is ahead of schedule cause he was never actually hurt, he's waiting for condit and diaz to take each other out so he only has to worry about one of them. stockton.
Your the man gsp your a great role model..show diaz how its done,,,,...
Thanks to GSP, i actually started excising for real and doing sprints and jumps like an athlete, well help to many other things of course but, GSP is my favorite Athelete. and i think thats saying a lot.
there are no scared people in ufc i hate people always talkin shit on fighters gsp is a stand up dude stop the hate enjoy what they do for you!
Fix this AUDIO!!
I had to have my fingers on the volume in between GSP's voice and yours Karyn
Fix your phone
She's such a sweet reporter.
or the guy who is "humble" but has a shit load of darkness in his head, or the guy who is just straight forward with who he really is and has nothing to hide..... lol
mma heat great job on sound balancing those mics
GSP is the only champion that i don't want to lose hes awesome!
GSP did great against Condit! It was a good fight.
Condit did threaten GSP though, landing harsh shots from the bottom as well as that headkick in the second round.
Glad to see GSP back and once again as the champ.
Hopefully we will see Diaz vs. St. Pierre in the near-future :)
such a good looking guywhen he has hair..no homo
+Martin Kove I think he loks better with his head shaved
he looks like vern troyer
I call him......mighty me
You sure sound like one
When he grows his hair*
he's gonna come back stronger than ever
Nick diaz has his number.. nick has top notch ground game different style from other black belts, and his stand up game not to be messed with.. i like gsp but nick wants to put on a good show for the fanz while winning and finishing fights..
Much respect for GSP!
In my opinion, Nick won 3 rounds of his fight with Condit.
Who should have won the fight is debatable, but what isn't debatable is the fact that Nick is way better fighter than Condit.
he's right i got spine surgery as a freshman and came back before everything fused so i had to do another surgery
I cant wait for this fight. GSP VS Diaz.
Man, the only reason why I could dislike GSP is because he's just too good. I mean, he has the attitude that everyone should have and it almost makes him look perfect. Fuck that shit... im jealous...
GSP has "demon in his head" and people "have no idea how dark he is in his head." LOL.
When you've taken the soul and heart out of strong men like Penn, Fitch, Serra, Hughes, Koscheck, etc. and chewed them up along with their rich, tasty courage, I think it's fair to say that no one should mistake GSP's kindness for weakness!
@amer1cancer2753
I have seen it, i saw how he reacted when Diaz called him out after beating penn, And GSP had a Carlos Conduit fight coming up. He got so mad that time he called Dana to stop the Carlos fight and begged for Diaz, that was all emotion.
What a class act, wow.
He's not injured, just scared Homie!
Probably but I understand why GSP won't. He wants to stay in the sport for a long time. Nick would fight cause he's ready to retire at anytime and doesn't give a shit. I say ready to retire cause I still think he has another fight or 2 in him atleast but it he is happy to be where he is at right now. GSP wants to keep moving forward
No no no, you meant to say WHERE YOU AT DIAZ!!!!! DON'T BE SCARED AGAIN HOMIE!!!!!!
what a champion
around 3 minutes when hes talking about the USSR super athlete training.. what training is he referring to?
he's busy showing up at the places he's supposed to be
GSP is a phenomenal fighter.....however i honestly believe whoever he faces out of diaz condit will beat him. whoever it is will bring to the octagon a self belief and confidence from a winning streak that GSP wont be able to manufacture in rehab. I'm not hating on GSP i just think the next fight he will have will honestly be his toughest to date.
what a class act
@MrDestruction25 lol. Anderson Silva fights at 185 lbs. Jon Jones fights at 205. Why would they fight GSP? That doesn't even make sense. I would hope fighters in a higher weight class would win.
I Love the diaz brothers they don't care for fame . but the're after the money.
Nick Diaz doesn't believe GSP is really hurt.... neither do I, at least not to the extent he say's he is. Too smooth of a story
I would probably laugh my ass off if i saw gsp heated as fuck
lmfao @ 8:27 "I will swingg for de fence" I would love to see GSP wild out in a street fight.
he really just sounds like he doesnt want to fight
"nowbadeeh nowz houw dark I em in may hed"
lmfao is this guy for real?
WHERE YOU AT GEORGE ahahaha
@100percentNatural100: Serra & Penn are both Natural LW's.

The body is an elastic when you pull it when it's cold it'll rip off when the elastic is warm you could stretch it.
Best rolemodel in the sport, hands down.
lets get Karyn more likes PEOPLE

He loses this mass payday of GSP fight. Anyone whos been watchin nick since the beginning knows any top wrestler will still easily handle him
That explains Tank Abbot career
his bully in school was 3ft tall and in a wheelchair
man. I love this guy. Canada, can we have him please?
@lanemendous Yeah. And he does have a killer instinct. He said that one thing he did negatively is that "over analysis leads to paralysis". He started thinking cerebrally too much. I respect him for his great self awareness. I think this experience is going to make him legend. If he heals back 100% he is going to be hard to defeat for anybody. Its easy to like Nick Diaz but GSP is a true humble martial artist that we can all learn from.
We like him because he is a great fighter.
Nick is respectful after, watch Diaz v Shamrock.
"I never cheat in my life" Tell that to your sponsor: Vaseline
Truly nice guys don't become successful MMA athletes. I don't know if it's self-respectful to pretend to be something you're not but it is what it is. I think he just called out his own integrity by saying he 's just pretending to be civil. Bigger then yourself... tell yourself what you have to. With that mentality he'll retire and move to to actually helping people instead of being a prize fighter.
It's hard being real in a world built on lies.
+Jose Daniel Herrera I truly think being real sets you free if you have the courage to do it. It cuts out the middle man. Self Brutal honesty with the self is the best and bravest thing you can do.
