I think most people respect GSP so much for being one of the first to say “I’m afraid and that’s ok” as a champion but still had the drive and the hunger to make it to Goat status
Nick Diaz is the same. He says he hates fighting and is scared but still one of the baddest dudes in MMA. They just really know who they are and accept the thoughts and feelings they have and use them as fuel.

This made me tear up. GSPs story is so amazingly motivating. Makes me want to work less in my job en free time up for something I am even more passionate about.
Having been born with deformed patellas, Danaher was prone to knee injuries throughout his early years. In the 1980s, Danaher suffered a severe knee injury to his left leg while playing rugby, which required surgery.[16] The result of multiple surgeries on his left knee was artificially shortened and deformed ligaments, which drastically inhibited Danaher's ability to properly extend and retract his knee. Over the years, this imbalance proceeded to cause other problems for Danaher. Namely, an unbalanced gait caused Danaher's left hip to be subjected to undue force and strain, leading to severe osteoarthritis. The damaged hip ultimately required a replacement surgery, which Danaher underwent in 2015.
What 'a wonderful interview this must have been. John Danaher is so calm and thoughtful with his responses. You know he has wisdom and is a 100% straight shooter. Good job letting him speak to Lex, some hosts couldn't stay quiet that long, wanting to add their own input.
How is no one talking about Johns rash guard? He only brings the nice ones out like this for special occasions! He means business and respects Lex just through the rash guard!!!
Thank you for posting, can't wait to watch the full podcast. Danaher is truly a once in a generation instructor. I love listening and learning from him.
GSP's UFC career was truly a sight to behold from the early naughties up until his 1st and last retirement.. the losses defined him, came back, win and dominate like no one. him surviving the headkick from Condit and recovering was a masterclass in itself.. plus he likes dinosaurs and collect fossils..
i can sit down and listen to john all day. the guy delivers and explains concepts in a very engaging way. Like he could explain maple syrup drip down a tree and id listen to him.
This is gold. FASCINATING 9 minutes with John Danaher, the soft-spoken trainer/philosopher/MMA-strategist. "Georges was the best at two things in his era: striking-to-takedowns (shoot-boxing) and strike-grappling on the ground."
This is an ASMR interview. Lol. They both have relaxed tones of voice but they are both some of my favorite people to listen to. Their brains are perfect for amazing conversations
I used to think of John Danaher as the creepy dude in GSP's corner back in the day! lol All jokes aside just listening to this guy talk for less than 10min and I feel I just gained so much knowledge about life and the way he talks about Georges St-Pierre just makes you wonder how much more potential he had in him if wasn't for the lay off's from injuries and UFC dragging their feet with his contracts. They should have been paying GSP, Mayweather money 10 years ago for what he did for that company.
Consider yourself a very fortunate fighter if this guy is your coach he has an in depth analysis regarding the sport of mma very analytical and inspiring🥋👍👏🤔🥋
I’m yet to here JD speak and be like “hmmmm I just don’t agree with with what you said” 🤣🤣🤣 very few when they speak I have to listen! God bless you Mr Danaher
Danaher is well spoken n has interesting views of success. I like where he said someone with high standards can change the world. I've recently challenged myself again n raised my bar lvls up from where it was. I am enjoying the challenge. I alrdy climbed to the top of the mountain, just ascending another💯
I find that having a strong purpose or “why” which is aligned with your core values helps you take that step forward every time…especially in the face of difficult times. Enjoy the journey and be proud of the person you have to become to achieve your goals.
Some of those incidents like when George paid a guy to kiss Penn on his walk out to F up his game.. Some Dirty stuff. He should have been better than that
George is the best athlete of his time and most disciplined. Not as great as some of his contemporaries. Anderson Silva or Fedor. Not that he couldn't win, because. It wasn't as spectacular
George is clearly one of the best ever. I just think the fact that he never finished his opponent while defending his belt lowers him slightly. Probably either Demetrious Johnson or Jon Jones then.
Jones is a steroid cheat. Can't be the best. For me, it was between Silva and GSP, with Silva ahead, because he finished his opponents. Then Silva popped for PEDs (even if it was after his reign and there could be an argument that it was just to make his broken leg heal up better), and GSP came back out of retirement and got the belt in a higher weight class. So GSP it is. Inspirational and worthy champ.
nah man, Khabib is a chain wrestler. He starts with a clinch, gets people to the fence, and then progresses to a takedown. GSP's takedowns were much more sudden; one second it's a striking match at kickboxing range, and the next second GSP would have his opponent flat on their back.
The hillarious part is GSP said multiple times that he was interested in coming back to fight Conor after his initial retirement. But Dana said 'never', because Dana hated GSP for making him look bad regarding the lack of testing in the UFC, so when George left he was outspoken about not wanting to fight in the UFC which didn't have testing at the time that would catch fighters who were cheating. GSP was very outspoken about how much fighters were cheating, how every gym knew which fighters were (cough Hendrix, etc) and so there was a big outcry after GSP left because when GSP left he was by far the UFC's biggest draw, and most popular fighter, as Anderson had lost and broken his leg on the rematch so GSP was now the clear GOAT. So that pressure caused the UFC to have to take no USADA right after. And you can check that yourself with the interviews, and media that was happening at the time, and the timing for when USADA came in. Because of this it pissed off Dana who not only lost his biggest meal ticket, but also was forced to clamped down on the ufc meat heads. So when GSP was being talked about with Conor's name at the same time Dana closed down that conversation saying it would never happen. But finally when there was an unpopular middleweight belt holder, Bisping, Dana let GSP come back and GSP tried to gain a bunch of weight for the fight and in doing so caused his lifelong battle with colitis to flare up, causing him to shit pints of blood, GSP had to quite after and so knowing he was not going to be able to defend his belt he returned it the same week that he got it. This also pissed of Dana again, meanwhile GSP did the right thing, free up the belt so that other fighters could have title fights, which brings in the most money for other fighters, and so it is something that other fighters respect a great deal. Meanwhile Dana being the hypocrite he is, had no problem with Conor sitting no two belts for nearly 2 years without defending them once. It was the longest any fighter has had a belt and not defended his title. Blocking the most money fights in those weight classes for 2 years, for many fighters those fights are the fights that set their family up for life, and pay off all the lack of money the sports gives before then. So GSP for doing the right thing pissed off Dana, meanwhile Conor's bottomless ego refused to return the belts. GSP defended the belt 9 times, and Conor 0 times. Who is the greater champion? All the champions say the same thing, winning the belt was easy compared to defending it. Because when you defend it now you have the entire industry gunning for your belt, and breaking down your weaknesses etc. Which is why Conor got his ass kicked after his wins, the wholes in his game were huge, but when he rose to the top, Dana made his rise so quickly, fighting the easiest fo the top 10 guys to get that title fight, and so when he had to defend he couldn't. Meanwhile GSP had fighters who he fought at the end of his career who walked into a gym for their first time with a picture of GSP's face on their wall as the target from the beginning of their careers, yet GSP kicked their assses... As Danaher says, GSP was in a league of his own, GSP is the GOAT and laid out the gameplan that even Khabib studied and took the fundamentals from and just incorporated his own different take down skills on top of, but Khabib owns his game to GSP who created that gameplan out of thin air, and now other champions, Usman, etc use GSP's blueprint. So it is clear that the guy who invents the blueprint is the goat, especially when he does it through three generation of fighters, clearing out any contenders in those three generations of fighters. That is something Conor never even began to do, Conor didnt' even clear out one generation of fighters. GSP took out 3 generations of killers/assassins. GSP would destroy Conor even now at 40+... Which is why Dana would never allow Conor to fight GSP, he knows GSP will win, same with Khabib, Khabib was basically publically saying he wanted to fight GSP more than anyone for years, and Dana said 'never' in a press conference even to that fight. Same as he prevented GSP from taking down his golden goose in Conor, he also made sure that GSP didn't ruin Khabib's perfect record as well...
Gsp never fought to win..he only fought not to lose. A boring point fighter. Overrated dryhumper. Bones Jones smashed and submitted current and ex champs during his title reign...after serra knocked the fk outta gsp he turned into a snoozer
You are talking like those people arent at risk of ruining their life ofc you dont try to be flashy and be spectacular while being the guy everyone is waiting to make a mistake for 10 years... otherwise you end up like Silva or worse
@@jeanjacques9365 the point system in boxing and more importantly MMA/ ufc , was instilled in the event one fighter doesn't finish the other. They had to add time limits so they added the point system. The fight is supposed to be where one guy beats the other guy , and if he doesn't , his efforts in trying would be recognized by the judges and the points. The system isn't there for these bitches to go into a fight and use it as a way to avoid trying to beat and finish the opponent, and by way of trying not to lose and win by points. It's antithesis to fighting and a total bitch move to fight like that. Imagine the Diaz brothers trying to strategize and beat guys by points, dancing around and jabbing n running the rest of the time they'd never have lost a fight. I don't respect that way of fighting it's bitch move loophole point fighting . They get scared of losing their livelihood? Diazs never did , many guys lost fights on points or got caught n still make a great living.
@@EmperorNerox i meant more for the health aspect of Silva's ending dude split his leg in two got knocked out which means brain injury, etc. You can also look at his early career the nickname rush comes from somewhere, he did what he had to do to garner the interest of the big leagues and when it wasn't necessary anymore he stuck to a safer plan and let his resume do the talk. Dont forget one joined the biggest league at 31 years old and the other at 23 one had to plan the long run the other came in with a bang and left destroyed.

Educating yourself in multiple platforms and reading can take you so far, but he clearly implemented lot of knowledge in his personality.

I like how John talks about how one can be fearless but can't come to the gym 3 months in a row to train
Courage is being afraid of something, yet doing it anyway. If you are not afraid to fight, then it does not require courage to step in the ring.
6:13 to the end is pure gold.
GPS is afraid of failure. That is huge. He is so mentally strong.

Food for thought
I wish GSP and Khabib would fight. That would be a blockbuster fight.
I still wanna see GSP vs Khabib
This is 10x the interview it would ever be on JRE cos he can talk freely without interruption

The secret to George Saint Pierre success in stay out of the way of Matt Serra
Who he so conveniently and convicingly destroyed the second time they fought.

George is the best athlete of his time and most disciplined. Not as great as some of his contemporaries. Anderson Silva or Fedor. Not that he couldn't win, because. It wasn't as spectacular
but look at where they all left... only one was great enough to last and stay on top until the end
