I love this guy. How could you not love Georges? He's a genuinely nice guy, a gentleman, and arguably the GOAT. You can tell the guy just keeps it real. No bs there.
I think when he was coach on the Ultimate Fighter (Josh Kosheck). One of St Pierre's guys lost and was broken up about it. George coached him so well and said something along the lines of he didn't care that he lost just that he wasn't hurt. You could just see it was all about his team's well being above and beyond everything else. He just seemed like such a decent dude, it was around then that he became my favorite fighter. Of course he was an amazing fighter as well, but just a decent person. I've also heard other fighters and announcers say that about him also.
Very wise man... knowing when to quit, especially in this sport..... I've watched George on Joe's podcast and in other talk shows and he strikes me to be very level headed, especially in this fighting sport where aggression and competitiveness often overpower intellect.
That's why a lot of people still talk about Khabib, he retired a champion n undefeated with that 29-0 which is very rare, the name value is there..this is what exactly what GSP is talking about,.. everytime GSP got invited to a podcast or interviews, he's always asked about Khabib.
The only questionable thing he did was put a large sum of money to fund a video series called “ worlds funniest suicides” Which he went on a tare of posting suicides and putting laughing emojis He got a lot of backlash and cancelled the project costing him 20 million dollars That how strongly believed in that series
Gsp is spot on with the retirement thing. You would see guys like Khabib and Gsp for the next 20-30 years still active in the mma scene while legends like BJ Penn will definitely be forgotten.
That's unfortunately true about BJ Penn, one of my favorite fighters ever. Whenever I hear BJ brought up, I always see a comment saying "People forget how great BJ was in his prime" or something to that effect.
@@thepelch7285 He was blackout drunk getting knocked to the ground by someone on the street 2 years ago. Wasnt a good look for him. So I dont know how that's gonna affect any political stuff
@@infiniterer287 Well he's 42, which is relatively young for a person. Some people are still breaking athletic records in their 40s, it's rare, but it happens. However, while it might be pretty young overall, it's not young for most athletes at all. Most athletes have fallen off by 40, in fact most have fallen off way younger, some early 30s or mid 30s, so I get your point. GSP and Khabib didn't have that longevity though, and you need that to be the GOAT. Jon Jones for example is the best fighter in t he world in his mid to late 30s still, and he just crushed a heavyweight after not fighting for 3 years, not to mention it was his first heavyweight fight ever, that's what people need to do to be the GOAT. Khabib specifically retired way too early, but Khabib is not the type of guy to care about money or titles. He didn't care about the GOAT title. Khabib is absolutely insane too.
@@billj4525 I agree with most of what you said but the reason Khabib is on the GOAT list is kind of a quality vs quantity thing. Jones, DJ, and GSP have longer reigns true. But Khabib was technically more dominant than them in the fact that he didn't even lose rounds, let alone fights. So I think he's still 3rd or 4th all time.
If only Conor and Ronda had supported the Union and helped push back against the Reebok deal back then they could have made a big difference! But because Reebok gave Ronda and Conor a special deal they supported it and went against the Union that GSP and other fighters were trying to make. That's why I hate it when uninformed people say Conor helped with fighter pay when he clearly didnt!
And now see who is happier today GSP and khabib or conor and ronda....The former are enjoying there retirement and all the money while later are frustrated and depressed with there careers..Ronda is doing wwe which is pure cringe while conor has completely lost his mind .
By far and away my two favorite fighters based on how intelligent and deep thinking they are. So glad they both went out on top and had their iconic moments in the octagon.
GSP is one of the most intelligent fighters I have ever seen. So calculating in his choices. Good for him for letting his mind make decisions for him and not his ego. One of the most deserving champions at the top of a short list.
Man what can you say about GSP other than what a great man. humble, wise, love hearing him speak. just the greatest of all time. a credit to the sport.
Of course as a fan we always want more but what a superb action GSP and Khabib did. Retired on top level and a load of great opportunities waiting on side door
GSP and Khabib and guys like them are the most genuine, most humble, and most down to Earth guys. They embody the true definition of being a gentleman. They come off as the kind of guys that even if you cross them in the wrong way, they'll actually give you a chance to correct yourself and apologize. Very honorable and classy right there. Keep on rockin'! 🤟
Probably, Khabib = being undefeated, never even got dropped or hurt, being P4P No.1 vs. GSP= having more title defenses, but getting finished 2 times and some split decision wins like Hendricks and BJ Penn, but never was P4P No.1 in official rankings, Also, in Khabib's defense, UFC didn't give Khabib title shot even after 9 wins, in 2016 Khabib deserved his title shot but they gave it to Conor and made him wait for 2 years, while GSP got his title shot after his 3rd UFC fight.
Never busted for roads maybe, but admittedly George used to blood spin which is basically like using EPO.. That being said, the playing field was definitely fair, everyone was on something, at least the ones at the highest level. Don't be fooled
@@callactm14 in all khabib fights he was always aggressor and always closes the distance which is very bizzare for the rest of the fighters watching their opponents walking towards them every round.
“It is lieing but its not lieing,” no dude it wasnt one of those business typa things, dana was blatantly lying, khabib still to this day after getting offered 100million he still wont do another fight. These guys are fighters before they’re businessmen and before fighters they are just men
True, but ppl like GSP and Khabib are also a business and they can sell their products to this day, why? Bcuz what GSP was talking about - reitre on top b4 the game retires you.
GSP knows how to hold his ground while being balanced and reasonable. This is why even to this day Dana White and other fighters respect him a great deal even though Dana and the UFC brass used to buttheads with him regarding his pay and contract.
I didn't realize how an end of career in that sport was as critical. You can loose in baseball, golf, basketball, towards the end of your career, you are still a legend, healthy and all good. But if you loose your last fight or get in a loosing streak, you look humiliated, terminated, maybe you get hurt. Proving the world you are falible. I never realized it's immensely dangerous towards the end, even more than it already actually is physically , the rest of your career. GSP is a real legend!! cheers
@@bbginc694 that knockout was a fluke and everyone knows that except for you, obviously. In the rematch GSP completely dominated Serra, it was so one sides it was ridiculous. Serra didn't belong in the same cage as GSP. There's always a punchers chance in a fight and Serra landed the luckiest punch of his life.
@@bbginc694 GSP has the same amount of world title wins as Khabib has wins in the UFC lol. Is this a joke? GSP has 13 world title wins, 9 title defenses across two divisions. Khabib has 13 total fights in the ufc. Stop it. An Jon Jones is a cheat.
Sort of like when he came to fight the easiest 185 champ ever, said he was going to defend it, and made excuses not too. "It's all about the timing" - GSP
Actually pretty sure GSP said that exact thing a long time ago as well... so not sure who said it first as far as UFC fighters, but it's a saying that goes way back, so likely neither took it from each other...
GSP is the G.O.A.T not only for the legacy he built inside the cage but for everything he continues to do outside the cage. Lives his life with a champions mindset years after leaving the UFC belt behind.
What a wise man ! I always wondered why many great fighters keep fighting past their prime. The risk of physical and psychological injury is just too high to justify. Like GSP said nothing is more precious than mental and physical health.
It depends on the fighter. I mean guys like GSP and Khabib were some of the top fighters ever, and in a lot of other sports guys will keep going trying to be the best as they age if they feel they're very close to their prime. Khabib definitely had a lot of prime left as the top guy. You need to have that longevity like Jon Jones to be the GOAT. You need to show you're still the best fighter in your late 30s or later, or very close to the best still. So guys like that have a reason to keep fighting, that's if being the GOAT or one of the GOATS is important to them. Most fighters have no reason to risk their health and go on fighting past their prime or when they start falling off. GSP was falling off a bit, and likely couldn't have maintained his position the way Jon has, so I can understand his choice way more than Khabibs. Top top guys need that longevity to be the GOAT though, so those guys have a lot to think about. That said, your points and all have GSP's point are 100% valid.
This is the greatest MMA fighter in history because he beat everyone he ever fought, he's take down defense was brilliant,his wrestling especially out in the open because his timing was sensational,His boxing was some of the best in UFC history, He's kicks were excellent also along with great bjj.The list of legends he fought and beat was amazing.He never failed a drug test in his career but fought and beat quite a few that were juicing.Left the Welterweight and Middleweight divisions as The Champion and really did seem to truly want to fight Khabib when khabib became Champion because Gsp was naturally a little smaller than khabib despite both being 5f 10i so he was willing to go down to 155 having fought against naturally bigger guys especially Bisping who was 6f 2i and was around 200 lbs on the night which Gsp said he was 186 but Dana and the powers that be in the Ufc knew that if George had fought Khabib 6 months after walking away as middleweight champ the chances were he'd have beaten Khabib and walked away again which would have left that division if khabib came and fought for the title against say Ferguson and won in the fans eyes the real Champion just walked away and that would have ended the greatest ever conversation for a long time in most people's minds.What i notice today is Gsp is finally getting his respect because he wins almost every poll of greatest ever UFC or MMA fighter in history which in my Humble opinion he is.Boxing has Ali and MMA had GSP.
He was definitely the goat. Not like khabib with a padded record or like Jones using steroids. Just natural talent, skill, and willingness to prove it. That's what makes a goat imo. It's easy to let people call you it and avoid the tough fights, it's another to take on the toughest challenges available just to prove it and without cheating.
Man imagine a Khabib-GSP fight at a catchweight of, say, 175 lbs. Their primes just missed one another but man, this was definitely one of sports what-ifs.
GSP doesn't have anything to prove. He dominated the WW division, beat several HoF. Won the MW belt. I wish he defended the MW belt against Whitaker or fought Khabi but Dana didn't want GSP around anymore.
Only if tyron Woodley retire before Usman fight. People would've regarded him quite high too. But he was stupid to keep on fighting at that age, without enough motivation toward the sports and now he is just a laughing stock.
I've never been more satisfied knowing a fight we'll never see is between the two GOATS who knew when to pack it up. It's so heartbreaking to see other champions, Liddell/Tito/Rampage/etc. limp to the ring having taped their ACL's together and weighing more than they'd ever fought at because they couldn't pass up the money offered and gamble with their health like that. I'm very grateful to have watched them growing up, don't get me wrong however, their's something to turning it down that highlights excellence beyond the physical realm.
Health is wealth - that's the realest - nothing too much more priceless than a sound mind and body, and even though fans are barking for more, to value what's really worth it, have discipline over who you are and value yourself beyond the money and the praise is straight up words of wisdom from GSP. The GOAT is speaking real facts and wisdom.
It breaks my heart to hear this man say, “My best years are probably behind me.” Thank you, Georges. For everything. All the great memories I have as a young Canadian watching all of your fights. Those are memories I will remember on my deathbed. You put this country on your back. I have the utmost respect for you. You’ve been a hero and idol to me since I was 14. You are the Greatest Of All Time.
That fight was never realistic at all it was just blown up by fans and media because they were the 2 best at the time and only 1 weight class difference. Anderson was at 185 and big for the weight class he fought at 205 several times while GSP was not a big welterweight. Ik he beat Bisping and became Champ at Middlweight but that was a lot of planning he added a ton of muscle mass over time to be able to be big enough it wasnt a good weight for him. During his prime years fighting he wouldnt have done that it would have screwed up his career at 170
@Andrew Vazquez Chael also had 17x the normal amount of Testerone of a normal man, while Silva had a hurt rib. Not saying that GSP wouldn't have won, but people like to bring up Chael but that's a HUGE factor. Chael was juiced to the brim and Anderson still won. Anderson destroyed him in the second fight.
Ha, GSP and Dana is basically how most business situations in life are when you're being smart and trying to do what's best for yourself. The other party is doing the same thing so they're going to run angles on you to try and make you do what works for them. Sometimes including some bullshit. No point getting mad about the "lying", you just analyze it and respond in a way that works for you or just say no thanks.
I love honesty and always have a special respect in my heart for all these kind of people!!!! George you are a hero and special hero for us in Canada but your health is the most important thing so and please never ever jepredise it under no trick!!!! Enjoy life!!, stay healthy !!!, happy, truthful, kind as always!!! I am honestly happy that you are matured and smart unlike many people that were destroyed!!!!
@@bbginc694 GSP also had 15 title fights. Fought many different styles and even moved up in weight. Khabib has 4 title fights. Only FOUR. Only defended against one style (kickboxers) and never moved up. He doesn't have the longevity that gsp had. Never challenged himself. Didn't fight long enough to go through adversity. 29 and 0 doesn't look that good when you only fought 3 top level fighters.
I don’t understand why anyone even says Khaba fought only 4 title fights, he absolutely destroyed every opponent, there is nobody today that can challenge him and wont be for a long time Khaba dominated everyone in a way that was just unbelievable We all heard how everyone was saying Connor will win and couldn’t do anything, than Justin, Dustin. Nobody had any chance at any given time of the fight, absolutely nobody dominated thru all the fights like Khaba did And mark my words, you will see how many champs will come out of his and Haviers school
The best fighter to ever do it and retire on top and still young hmmmm. Let me tell ya. GSP has intelligence like nobody's business. GPS is a chess player with every aspect of life. GOAT
I don't think most people can imagine the level of stress during the week before a fight. I know from having to walk out on a stage and play classical masterpieces to a dead silent audience . The stress is huge . The night before is always the worst. When I am walking onto the stage I tell myself at least I don't have to sing or even worst, be in a fight, That would be real stress. GSP said he trained so hard for fear of getting knocked out in front of millions of people.
6:28 I disagree Vince McMahon is the best promoter in the world, who else can take a fake sport, with an over the top product and turn into a billion dollar business.
Vince had a lot of advantages. 1. Wrestling was already somewhat popular across the United States when he got in. 2. Vince had had full control of the shows he promotes. The UFC was losing money and treated like dirt in the sport community when Dana got in, plus he can't control who wins, who says what, or how to book for the future. Definitely an apples to oranges comparison.
I remember after that Johnny Hendricks fight, GSP was never the same. He was taking way more shots and I think the pressure finally got to him. He looks and sounds so much more healthy.
but my friend,after Hendricks he retired,and only once fought afterwards (he won against Bisping,and took the 2nd belt)! So when was he taking those shots???
UFC would've never made it a title fight. They only wanted to materialize that fight only after Khabib announced his retirement. UFC wanted to squeeze out the money as much as possible.
GSP could never make 155. He was a full sized welterweight that fought most recently at middleweight. The fight would have been at a catch weight most likely.
I have a ton of respect for GSP. One of the few guys in the sport who retired on top. It's so sad watching legends come back and lose over and over again until injuries and age permanently retire them without choice. God knows we've seen more than our share of that.
Gsp comes from a civilised and privileged society. Khabib comes from a place where they resist change and follows religious extremism. It just cultures. Khabib has his own merits and gsp has his own. Nobody is perfect.
Except Khabib never did that either. The homeless man was begging. In Russia, ppl dont beg to eat, they work. So Khabib's cousin asked him to at least do some push-ups to earn the money. Khabib recorded the spectacle from behind a cafe/restaurant window where he was sitting, laughing at how his cousin was trying to impart their work ethic values even on an american homeless person.
@@KnowledgeNorth I get you're a khabib fan, and will spin it however possible to protect his name... but there's no denying that incident showed a lack of class and respect from a multi millionaire world champion.
@@casual9982 its got nothing to do with being a fan. Notions of class and respect are subjective. Begging is frowned up in many cultures outside the US, esp if the person begging in the state he is due to alcoholism or a drug habit. But the main point is, you simply gave a false report. Khabib never made him do a single pushup. He was in a buidling watching as bystander. As for being charitable to those in need, check out his work in Africa, building schools and water wells with his own money.
This was such a good guy. PBD Likes UFC almost as much as me and gave me something to unwind on my journey to the top of being one of the best entrepreneurs
I would love to see the two fight, but for GSP health please stay retired. Gsp dominated clean in an era of steroid and testosterone users. GSP took a lot of damage because the sport wasn’t being regulated especially for the health and safety of their fighters. Interviews now compared to just a few years ago, GSP has shown mass improvements in brain cognition and overall enjoyment in life. GSP has given us, the fans enough. He deserves a life of happiness and riches. GSP is one of the most respected, if not the most respected and honest fighters to grace the octagon. Thank you sir.
Just to clarify, because Pierre didn’t come right out and say it, I’ll explain. Near the beginning of the video when he said that the UFC didn’t want to risk Georges fighting Khabib because they wanted Khabib to keep fighting, is because if Georges beat Khabib, then it’s like the emperor has no clothes. Khabib is no longer thought of as the top guy. He would be thought of as number 2. Khabib was a cash cow for the UFC at the time and Pierre beating him would put a stop to that. It’s like in the WWE when there’s politics of who and when the top guy is going to be, all about money.
Khabib has always given the utmost respect to GSP even to the point of making sure everyone knows that GSP was his father’s favorite fighter.

Gsp is spot on with the retirement thing. You would see guys like Khabib and Gsp for the next 20-30 years still active in the mma scene while legends like BJ Penn will definitely be forgotten.
So true. UFC does not want any fighter on that known throughout history level.
That's unfortunately true about BJ Penn, one of my favorite fighters ever. Whenever I hear BJ brought up, I always see a comment saying "People forget how great BJ was in his prime" or something to that effect.
Isn't bj penn running for governor of Hawaii. Honestly, that's a much bigger calling than being an athlete. Man of the people > false idol
BJ for governer

"There is no price for my health" . That was deep. This is why GSP still looks healthy and sounds healthy at his age.
At his age? He's young, yo!! You made it sound like he's in his 10000's.
@@Merark1 lol he's not "young" but he's not old either...
@@infiniterer287 Well he's 42, which is relatively young for a person. Some people are still breaking athletic records in their 40s, it's rare, but it happens. However, while it might be pretty young overall, it's not young for most athletes at all. Most athletes have fallen off by 40, in fact most have fallen off way younger, some early 30s or mid 30s, so I get your point. GSP and Khabib didn't have that longevity though, and you need that to be the GOAT. Jon Jones for example is the best fighter in t he world in his mid to late 30s still, and he just crushed a heavyweight after not fighting for 3 years, not to mention it was his first heavyweight fight ever, that's what people need to do to be the GOAT. Khabib specifically retired way too early, but Khabib is not the type of guy to care about money or titles. He didn't care about the GOAT title. Khabib is absolutely insane too.
@@billj4525 I agree with most of what you said but the reason Khabib is on the GOAT list is kind of a quality vs quantity thing. Jones, DJ, and GSP have longer reigns true. But Khabib was technically more dominant than them in the fact that he didn't even lose rounds, let alone fights. So I think he's still 3rd or 4th all time.
If only Conor and Ronda had supported the Union and helped push back against the Reebok deal back then they could have made a big difference! But because Reebok gave Ronda and Conor a special deal they supported it and went against the Union that GSP and other fighters were trying to make. That's why I hate it when uninformed people say Conor helped with fighter pay when he clearly didnt!
Soo true! Connor helped only himself with fighter pay & thats why Dana loves him & never holds GSP In the same regard.
And now see who is happier today GSP and khabib or conor and ronda....The former are enjoying there retirement and all the money while later are frustrated and depressed with there careers..Ronda is doing wwe which is pure cringe while conor has completely lost his mind .

By far and away my two favorite fighters based on how intelligent and deep thinking they are. So glad they both went out on top and had their iconic moments in the octagon.
GSP is one of the most intelligent fighters I have ever seen. So calculating in his choices. Good for him for letting his mind make decisions for him and not his ego. One of the most deserving champions at the top of a short list.
Man what can you say about GSP other than what a great man.
humble, wise, love hearing him speak. just the greatest of all time. a credit to the sport.
Thank you for everything George. It was a great pleasure to watch your career.
Of course as a fan we always want more but what a superb action GSP and Khabib did. Retired on top level and a load of great opportunities waiting on side door
GSP and Khabib and guys like them are the most genuine, most humble, and most down to Earth guys. They embody the true definition of being a gentleman. They come off as the kind of guys that even if you cross them in the wrong way, they'll actually give you a chance to correct yourself and apologize. Very honorable and classy right there.
Keep on rockin'! 🤟
They’re the two best ever. No roids no knees to the dome no bullshit alcohol just pure adrenaline
Probably,
Khabib = being undefeated, never even got dropped or hurt, being P4P No.1
vs.
GSP= having more title defenses, but getting finished 2 times and some split decision wins like Hendricks and BJ Penn, but never was P4P No.1 in official rankings,
Also, in Khabib's defense, UFC didn't give Khabib title shot even after 9 wins, in 2016 Khabib deserved his title shot but they gave it to Conor and made him wait for 2 years, while GSP got his title shot after his 3rd UFC fight.
Never busted for roads maybe, but admittedly George used to blood spin which is basically like using EPO.. That being said, the playing field was definitely fair, everyone was on something, at least the ones at the highest level. Don't be fooled
Exactly. No steroids. No trashtalk. No eyepoke. No cheating.
@@callactm14 in all khabib fights he was always aggressor and always closes the distance which is very bizzare for the rest of the fighters watching their opponents walking towards them every round.
GSP was juiced - it’s obvious to anyone with any experience with PEDs.
This is why to me, GSP will always be the absolute goat and perfect rode model. An incredible human inside and outside the octagon!
“It is lieing but its not lieing,” no dude it wasnt one of those business typa things, dana was blatantly lying, khabib still to this day after getting offered 100million he still wont do another fight. These guys are fighters before they’re businessmen and before fighters they are just men
True, but ppl like GSP and Khabib are also a business and they can sell their products to this day, why? Bcuz what GSP was talking about - reitre on top b4 the game retires you.
GSP knows how to hold his ground while being balanced and reasonable. This is why even to this day Dana White and other fighters respect him a great deal even though Dana and the UFC brass used to buttheads with him regarding his pay and contract.
What GSP said about retire at the top is almost same as Khabib told especially about the different between MMA / martial art sport and other sport...
His honesty hits very powerfully as like his fist, a true legend. Priceless Advices.
I didn't realize how an end of career in that sport was as critical. You can loose in baseball, golf, basketball, towards the end of your career, you are still a legend, healthy and all good. But if you loose your last fight or get in a loosing streak, you look humiliated, terminated, maybe you get hurt. Proving the world you are falible. I never realized it's immensely dangerous towards the end, even more than it already actually is physically , the rest of your career. GSP is a real legend!! cheers
The GOAT. GOATSP. We'll never see anyone like GSP again. It was an honor GSP.

“Dana lied to me” wow never heard that before
Sort of like when he came to fight the easiest 185 champ ever, said he was going to defend it, and made excuses not too. "It's all about the timing" - GSP
"the rest of your pay is coming"
For being such a scumbag it's crazy how many people like Dana
This guy is a true legend. Utmost respect. One of my all time favorite.
GSP steals Michael bispings joke when he said Dana can sell ice cream to an Eskimo 😂😂
That is not bispings joke its a general saying.
@@Martin-nv3qh i think hes copying bisping cause bisping once joked about how he could sell sand to an arab
@@smaswqa4208 Nobody's copying anybody. That bit existed long before the UFC or any of else were born.
Actually pretty sure GSP said that exact thing a long time ago as well... so not sure who said it first as far as UFC fighters, but it's a saying that goes way back, so likely neither took it from each other...
GSP is the G.O.A.T not only for the legacy he built inside the cage but for everything he continues to do outside the cage. Lives his life with a champions mindset years after leaving the UFC belt behind.
What a wise man ! I always wondered why many great fighters keep fighting past their prime.
The risk of physical and psychological injury is just too high to justify.
Like GSP said nothing is more precious than mental and physical health.
Especially with a solid gold house an endless supply of money. Various rocket cars.
Then money doesn’t matter atball.
It depends on the fighter. I mean guys like GSP and Khabib were some of the top fighters ever, and in a lot of other sports guys will keep going trying to be the best as they age if they feel they're very close to their prime. Khabib definitely had a lot of prime left as the top guy. You need to have that longevity like Jon Jones to be the GOAT. You need to show you're still the best fighter in your late 30s or later, or very close to the best still. So guys like that have a reason to keep fighting, that's if being the GOAT or one of the GOATS is important to them. Most fighters have no reason to risk their health and go on fighting past their prime or when they start falling off. GSP was falling off a bit, and likely couldn't have maintained his position the way Jon has, so I can understand his choice way more than Khabibs. Top top guys need that longevity to be the GOAT though, so those guys have a lot to think about. That said, your points and all have GSP's point are 100% valid.
Three guys who have a legit claim to greatest MMA fighter ever:
GSP, Khabib and Jon Jones

Jones the PED junkie!? Fuck no.
@@Manderenn
Yeah, Ol' Andy the Spider was always my favorite. I like it when someone busts dances moves and stuff during a fight, such a show!

The most honest man in UFC , And a real gentleman George is
This is the greatest MMA fighter in history because he beat everyone he ever fought, he's take down defense was brilliant,his wrestling especially out in the open because his timing was sensational,His boxing was some of the best in UFC history, He's kicks were excellent also along with great bjj.The list of legends he fought and beat was amazing.He never failed a drug test in his career but fought and beat quite a few that were juicing.Left the Welterweight and Middleweight divisions as The Champion and really did seem to truly want to fight Khabib when khabib became Champion because Gsp was naturally a little smaller than khabib despite both being 5f 10i so he was willing to go down to 155 having fought against naturally bigger guys especially Bisping who was 6f 2i and was around 200 lbs on the night which Gsp said he was 186 but Dana and the powers that be in the Ufc knew that if George had fought Khabib 6 months after walking away as middleweight champ the chances were he'd have beaten Khabib and walked away again which would have left that division if khabib came and fought for the title against say Ferguson and won in the fans eyes the real Champion just walked away and that would have ended the greatest ever conversation for a long time in most people's minds.What i notice today is Gsp is finally getting his respect because he wins almost every poll of greatest ever UFC or MMA fighter in history which in my Humble opinion he is.Boxing has Ali and MMA had GSP.
He was definitely the goat. Not like khabib with a padded record or like Jones using steroids. Just natural talent, skill, and willingness to prove it. That's what makes a goat imo.
It's easy to let people call you it and avoid the tough fights, it's another to take on the toughest challenges available just to prove it and without cheating.
He had some crazy takedown defense. Definitely the most well rounded fighter.
@@colecampbell1906 another chicken 🐔 lol

@@harryspeed-et8ds Hendrix was juiced up so bad. J7st a cheater, didn't deserve to win.

Man imagine a Khabib-GSP fight at a catchweight of, say, 175 lbs. Their primes just missed one another but man, this was definitely one of sports what-ifs.
Prime vs prime would have been absolutely insane to see.
Gsp is such a smart guy, he can always articulate his opinion in a way that puts you in his shoes.
GSP doesn't have anything to prove. He dominated the WW division, beat several HoF. Won the MW belt. I wish he defended the MW belt against Whitaker or fought Khabi but Dana didn't want GSP around anymore.
Gsp and khabib are goats. And have u seen that Whitaker/GSP interaction after gsp beat bisping?
Only if tyron Woodley retire before Usman fight. People would've regarded him quite high too. But he was stupid to keep on fighting at that age, without enough motivation toward the sports and now he is just a laughing stock.

I've never been more satisfied knowing a fight we'll never see is between the two GOATS who knew when to pack it up. It's so heartbreaking to see other champions, Liddell/Tito/Rampage/etc. limp to the ring having taped their ACL's together and weighing more than they'd ever fought at because they couldn't pass up the money offered and gamble with their health like that. I'm very grateful to have watched them growing up, don't get me wrong however, their's something to turning it down that highlights excellence beyond the physical realm.
GSP is very smart to retire the way he did.

Love GSP. Such an amazing human being inside and outside of the ring.
not only is he a great fighter but also a man with wisdom . The legendary gsp .
GSP… the epitome of the gentleman warrior
Health is wealth - that's the realest - nothing too much more priceless than a sound mind and body, and even though fans are barking for more, to value what's really worth it, have discipline over who you are and value yourself beyond the money and the praise is straight up words of wisdom from GSP. The GOAT is speaking real facts and wisdom.
Khabib had said in the past that GSP was his father's favorite fighter. When you hear him talk knowing he walks it too, you understand why.
If Khabibs father was alive he 100% woulda fought GSP😢
Gsp is so well spoken spitting some facts. I hope younger fighters, and athletes for that matter, take this to heart.
Great fighter, great man..
It breaks my heart to hear this man say, “My best years are probably behind me.” Thank you, Georges. For everything. All the great memories I have as a young Canadian watching all of your fights. Those are memories I will remember on my deathbed. You put this country on your back. I have the utmost respect for you. You’ve been a hero and idol to me since I was 14. You are the Greatest Of All Time.
Anderson was the fight that never happen
Agree - I think George smokes khabib - Anderson during prime would have been interesting
He would've beaten Anderson
@@ducckman prime gsp and prime Anderson Anderson would smoke him
That fight was never realistic at all it was just blown up by fans and media because they were the 2 best at the time and only 1 weight class difference. Anderson was at 185 and big for the weight class he fought at 205 several times while GSP was not a big welterweight. Ik he beat Bisping and became Champ at Middlweight but that was a lot of planning he added a ton of muscle mass over time to be able to be big enough it wasnt a good weight for him. During his prime years fighting he wouldnt have done that it would have screwed up his career at 170
@Andrew Vazquez Chael also had 17x the normal amount of Testerone of a normal man, while Silva had a hurt rib. Not saying that GSP wouldn't have won, but people like to bring up Chael but that's a HUGE factor. Chael was juiced to the brim and Anderson still won.
Anderson destroyed him in the second fight.
What a smart and amazing guy GSP is! Brilliant!
Ha, GSP and Dana is basically how most business situations in life are when you're being smart and trying to do what's best for yourself. The other party is doing the same thing so they're going to run angles on you to try and make you do what works for them. Sometimes including some bullshit. No point getting mad about the "lying", you just analyze it and respond in a way that works for you or just say no thanks.
That's some serious nuggets from the legendary GSP. Respect this perspective on retiring.
A unique fighter and man, respect GSP.
I love honesty and always have a special respect in my heart for all these kind of people!!!!
George you are a hero and special hero for us in Canada but your health is the most important thing so and please never ever jepredise it under no trick!!!!

The best fighter to ever do it and retire on top and still young hmmmm. Let me tell ya. GSP has intelligence like nobody's business. GPS is a chess player with every aspect of life. GOAT
I can see why he is very respected.
I don't think most people can imagine the level of stress during the week before a fight.
I know from having to walk out on a stage and play classical masterpieces to a dead silent audience . The stress is huge . The night before is always the worst. When I am walking onto the stage I tell myself at least I don't have to sing or even worst, be in a fight, That would be real stress. GSP said he trained so hard for fear of getting knocked out in front of millions of people.
Love how honest gsp is
GSP stated back then that he would have trouble fighting at 155lbs Due to colitis.
Catchweight would of been ideal since it would of been both their last fights.
they could have done catchweight fight and the fight will still broke ppv record
Both were down for catchweight fight. But UFC didn't book it
GSP is one wise guy. I hope upcoming fighters watch this interview. Get out on top then doors still open for you.
6:28 I disagree Vince McMahon is the best promoter in the world, who else can take a fake sport, with an over the top product and turn into a billion dollar business.
Vince had a lot of advantages. 1. Wrestling was already somewhat popular across the United States when he got in. 2. Vince had had full control of the shows he promotes. The UFC was losing money and treated like dirt in the sport community when Dana got in, plus he can't control who wins, who says what, or how to book for the future. Definitely an apples to oranges comparison.
nobody cares about wwe other then some americans
Plus MMA was considered too cruel, so big arenas in US wouldn’t even allow it. The road of UFC was definitely a hard one
Legend, role model, you name it...love GSP, wish him all the very best!
I remember after that Johnny Hendricks fight, GSP was never the same. He was taking way more shots and I think the pressure finally got to him. He looks and sounds so much more healthy.
Must be hard having a belt for like 7 years, the pressure most be insane
Yeah, plus it was Hendricks on full roids.
but my friend,after Hendricks he retired,and only once fought afterwards (he won against Bisping,and took the 2nd belt)! So when was he taking those shots???

I have a ton of respect for GSP. One of the few guys in the sport who retired on top. It's so sad watching legends come back and lose over and over again until injuries and age permanently retire them without choice. God knows we've seen more than our share of that.
I don't think GSP would EVER make a homeless person do pushups for a stupid video.. GSP is the greatest hands down.
Gsp comes from a civilised and privileged society. Khabib comes from a place where they resist change and follows religious extremism. It just cultures. Khabib has his own merits and gsp has his own. Nobody is perfect.
Except Khabib never did that either. The homeless man was begging. In Russia, ppl dont beg to eat, they work. So Khabib's cousin asked him to at least do some push-ups to earn the money. Khabib recorded the spectacle from behind a cafe/restaurant window where he was sitting, laughing at how his cousin was trying to impart their work ethic values even on an american homeless person.
@@KnowledgeNorth I get you're a khabib fan, and will spin it however possible to protect his name... but there's no denying that incident showed a lack of class and respect from a multi millionaire world champion.

@@casual9982 its got nothing to do with being a fan. Notions of class and respect are subjective. Begging is frowned up in many cultures outside the US, esp if the person begging in the state he is due to alcoholism or a drug habit. But the main point is, you simply gave a false report. Khabib never made him do a single pushup. He was in a buidling watching as bystander. As for being charitable to those in need, check out his work in Africa, building schools and water wells with his own money.
This was such a good guy. PBD Likes UFC almost as much as me and gave me something to unwind on my journey to the top of being one of the best entrepreneurs
GSP is like Dana can sell ice to an Eskimo well ofcourse he is a Eskimo brother
georges the best to ever do it. gaming the game, leveling up the game since he walked in.
I would love to see the two fight, but for GSP health please stay retired. Gsp dominated clean in an era of steroid and testosterone users. GSP took a lot of damage because the sport wasn’t being regulated especially for the health and safety of their fighters. Interviews now compared to just a few years ago, GSP has shown mass improvements in brain cognition and overall enjoyment in life. GSP has given us, the fans enough. He deserves a life of happiness and riches. GSP is one of the most respected, if not the most respected and honest fighters to grace the octagon. Thank you sir.
Very well explained George. 👏👏
Exactly it’s promotion. Kind of how the title of this video is also misleading.
GSP is so super smart. Kudos to him and his great legacy
Just to clarify, because Pierre didn’t come right out and say it, I’ll explain. Near the beginning of the video when he said that the UFC didn’t want to risk Georges fighting Khabib because they wanted Khabib to keep fighting, is because if Georges beat Khabib, then it’s like the emperor has no clothes. Khabib is no longer thought of as the top guy. He would be thought of as number 2. Khabib was a cash cow for the UFC at the time and Pierre beating him would put a stop to that. It’s like in the WWE when there’s politics of who and when the top guy is going to be, all about money.
Man this guy know what he talk about. All respect to gsp
The goat end of story
