Not surprised. Wonder if he ever comes back. Bet that fight with Jhonny has him thinking that he should leave on a high note and not fight again.

I'm a big Mighty Mouse fan but I think Benavidez might give him some problems Saturday night. Any thoughts?

GSP: I knew before UFC 167 I was going to do this. It just built up over time.

GSP should probably just retire, but wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't want that fight to be his last

also $$$

I don't think anyone here can relate to what it is like being the best in the world at the most intense competive sport in the world. It must be draining and if he never fights again then it won't hinder my opinion of him being one of the greatest ever at all.

Better to go out on a high note anyway

Agree. As much as i love to hate, he is easily the best WW to ever fight in the ufc, and depending on how you rank fighters all-time in ufc, he is #1-4. To retire while still holding to belt is pretty incredible, and he deserves A lot of respect.

Kind of strange to think that the judges were able to screw BOTH GSP and Hendricks with their decision that night.

Seriously, how much easier is all this if St. Pierre just... loses?

Lol, I'm sure GSP has no problem with leaving the sport on a 12 fight win streak and being the WW king. Wouldn't say judges screwed him in the slightest there.
