UFC fighters pay tribute to an Octagon icon, Georges St-Pierre. GSP recently entered the UFC Hall of Fame and became a two-division champion after coming out of retirement in 2017 to claim the middleweight title. This was after his dominance as lightweight champion from 2007 - 2013.

The GOAT 26-2 avenged both losses 20 UFC wins 9 title defences 2 weight world champion Unbeaten for 9 years Never pissed hot Would out wrestle wrestlers Would out strike strikers Very well rounded
100% agree with this
@Brett M stats say otherwise He landed more strikes and takedowns on Hendricks
@Brett M Johnny lost Robbie and Robbie lost to Tyron and Tyron lost to Jake Paul. Where is the stiffer competition? Only Usman is close of GSP class
@@jonsinkkonen9393 MMA Math 😆😆
Most well rounded. But I think he out wrestled strikers and outstruck wrestlers,, its smarter
The GOAT will always be subjective. There’s many things to consider- record, title defenses, opponents, if PEDs were involved, controversial decisions and how well rounded the fighter is in all aspects of the game. To me, GSP is #1 because he is the most complete fighter in terms of martial arts ability, avenged his only 2 losses, never popped for PEDs, 9 title defenses and won belts at 2 weight classes. He fought the best of the best and dominated everyone. Outwrestled wrestlers, outstruck strikers. The way he carried himself, no champion has. A true martial artist and class act- my hero & all time favorite athlete
Boring as hell nothing exciting about the decision machine
9 title defenses* but yeah as a Quebec Man I can just more than agree with you, he is a pride for us, french-canadian people, he made us big on the map, such like Celine or Alys Robi at the time in music!

@@titomish5914 yo mama is boring. Nothing exciting anymore, been there done that.
@@titomish5914 True, only casuals who pretend to be long time fans try to claim that GSP was entertaining. He's not.

All MMA fans are impressed by GSP's performance. Both inside and outside the ring he was a true Champion.
In Canada he really held up all mma gyms here, he MADE them generate revenue, i trained at gary goodridges ultimate mma, george helped build it essentially. Ever since he left the game Canada has not produced anyone remotely close to a belt its so sad.... If you don't live in Canada you don't understand we are a very very weak liberal country, we need tough role models to break out of our fairy world... America has conflict and alpha males and free speech... You don't understand how soft Canada is unless you live here.... Its pathetic, we need another GSP, we need some warriors up here... Peace yall. Ossss!
@@holeindanssock156 I don't know what you're talking about how our country is ' a very very weak liberal country' We have tough role models ..and have had them for years ...Real role models , fictional ones, we're the country that produced the artist that helped create Superman. We're the home of Terry freaking Fox Wayne Gretzky Sidney Crosby Freaking Bret the Hitman Hart ... We don't need to be some blow hard Alpha male...but we have enough free speech. But hey ...ALL the goon hockey players that you probably love are from here..So hey ... AND ya know what? George? He's probably a bit more 'Liberal' minded. Geez..I guess you're happy that Brock Lesnar is a Candian now ..is that the prototype of what you want the 'Canadian Alpha Male' to be? Just Muscle with a head and someone that just 'Might is right'?
Much respect for how he handled himself inside and outside of the cage 🐐
Who comes back as an old dude, and submits a savage like Bisping after he sht talked him pre fight alot? Guy starches people for a decade, retires, comes off the couch to beat some idiot up...

@@recko800 in your dreams son
Not a lot of people mentioned but after retirement I’m amazed how well he’s doing, how he still represents mma, how he’s still an “active” icon. Such a great human being and role model.
Not to mention his physique, he still looks remarkable years after retirement & in to his 40's. Never stops pushing himself mentally & physically to become a better version of himself. A for ever legend of the sport.
A lot of people say who’s the goat and who’s this and that, but as far as pure greatness and movie like career it was GSP hands down
@Brett M Nah
conor fanboys wont agree
Anderson The Spider
GSP was a great wrestler but as a fighter he was average.He had to lay and pray because many who GSP beat could easily beat him in the stand up like Serra did and Johnny Hendricks. When in came to like high school and college wrestling style GSP was great and that is the sport he should have been a pro at.
People who bring the number of title defence fights of Habib r so dumb Habib already Smeshed rda in 2014 then he got injured rda got a title shot n got crowned..Habib never ever lost so in reality he have like 13 title defence fights infact Gsp was given a title shot after just 2 fights Silva After just one look now at Khamzat those same dumb bias haters r crying he needs more fights before giving him a shot..WE all know why they r bias against both of them..any way I love Georges he is a super humble Guy super well mannared Guy May Allah guide him to Monotheism..any way my Goat fighter is not even Habib who never bled never dropped..the best fighter is Khaled Ibn Walid never lost any man to man fight never lost any battle as a general commander won against both strongest empire s of his Time the byzantine n the persian empires
Very proud of my boy GSP. Can't believe he grew up just few mins away from me.

Overall whose bigger in Canada GSP or Bret Hart
@@bibothor206 Thanks for the reply I had to ask because I'm a huge fan of both of them.
The GOAT, a true mixed martial artist in and outside of the octagon and even now in retirement he still stays active and working on his art.
Colby and Usman would beat Gsp
Even Vicente would beat him
@@coolbitchcumontngue2926 LMFAO Ur making it so obvious that u are a new casual ufc fan
@@f.b.i2198 Luque is the best welterweight right now. He would beat everyone. This is why Colby and Chimaev are afraid of him and don't wanna fight him
Goat of decisions and peds.
He was also the first one to train and carry himself like a professional athlete. Nobody trained like him. Nobody wore suits to pressers. Accomplishments aside, he also changed the fabric of the sport and was a huge factor in legitimizing MMA, which I was personally, very happy about.
The GOAT!
Incredible! GSP = Captain Canada 🇨🇦
Lol canadians were mad when he was cast as MCU villain
GSP inspired people... Inside and outside the cage. He's just on another level. He's the ZEN! Merci Georges
9 title defenses vs 8 different opponents & competing over a decade. Speaks about his skills and tenacity as a champion.
Against 9 different opponents
@Brett M he didn't duck anyone, was one of the longest reigning champs
Only person he didn’t face that he could’ve was Silva and it’s because he knew Silva was on drugs
@@elijahstark3663 sure lmao
@@elijahstark3663 I mean, it was probably a smart decision. Look at Izzy, went up to face Jan, lost, and it marred his legacy.
I am a bigger fan of the person he is then the fighter he was which goes to show how perfectly he embodied the Mind and Body connection of a true martial artist. Goat.
And The Hall of Fame ever. GSP is the best forever!!!!
I love to see people give legends their flowers while they are still alive. No need for anything to happen we appreciate that we still have you. GOAT 🐐
The man who made me love the MMA with his morality and skills GSP is a live legend and an example for everyone🙏
He's a Canadian Hero, great ambassador, Classy, Respectful, great role model, no problem with justice... never cheated
When I think of Canadian heroes I think of Terry Fox, GSP and Gretzky.
Canadian heroes should also consider Francis Pegahmagabow. The WWI ghost in the trenches.
The GOAT of this sport. The best champ, inside and outside the Octagon. 🐏🐏
No finishes at all and the most boring champ ever

Agreed
Jon Jones also
Anderson Silva ruined his career. He's not even in the conversation

Haha....i call him that. Glad to see someone else use the same
Bisbing being one of the great boxers, being dropped by GSP, priceless. And can't forget how he knew Koschek would cheat so he set him up on fighter picks and then dominated it, another priceless.
@@bibothor206 yeah, by far my favorite ultimate fighter series.
I miss GSP fights in Canada/Montreal and I'm not even Canadian.
Him walking out in his pyjamas to fight josh Koschek in Montreal with a dope French rap track never been that hyped since.
tabarnak bro.... you give me some goosebump!!!
With all due respect for the great champion that Kamaru Usman currently is, but Georges St. Pierre is still the undisputed UFC welterweight champion and GOAT, with the championship record for the longest and most consecutive title defenses in the UFC welterweight division, which Usman has not yet even came close to as of now
@Red Field some people say that but id argue the lack of caliber fighter is what doesn't quite do it. Amazing fighter tho.
Big facts
GSP is THE reason why I am such an avid MMA fan in 2021. Thank you GSP.
I miss watching GSP! He was pure class in the octagon and out :) 💪 😇
Amazing athlete!! ♥️♥️♥️
Remember meeting him in a gym at Montreal, never thought I'd be emotional seeing a legend who inspired me to learn kickboxing and jiu jitsu. Such a humble and respectful person. He's the best to have ever done it 4 real 💯: 9 title defenses, 17 fight win streak, 2 division champ, 2 losses of which I remember him demolishing Matt Serra, & Matt Hughes with the same armbar he got defeated with. I don't want to get started on his training routines🤦🏽♂️: doing gymnastics pushing the limits training under water with weights, stretching, oh my goodness! As a fighter, u could clearly tell he grew developing his skills. Love those superman punch-low calf kick combos he throws to close distances while switching angles to avoid getting hit. One huge issue with GSP was how easy he gets cut bleeding so much. However, a lot of people never really noticed he wasn't really getting hit as compared to multiple strikes he kept landing on his opponents just like his fight against Bisping.
As the sport continues to grow there will undoubtedly be other fighters who could outperform him come along, but it will take a truly special individual to have the same kind of impact that GSP had. He really is the greatest of all time.
He's not only the GOAT due to his in ring accomplishments but also what he did for the sport...he was the first true mixed martial artist..and not only did he influence the training of all mma stars today he also set the caliber for what it is to be the greatest
The fact that Khabib, with a 29-0 record and his beloved late father talked about only GSP as the one person they like to test against before Khabib retired.... says all that is to say about how much true elites like Khabib respected GSP. None of the others in Khabib's division were up to his level. Unfortunately, for both --- even if they are both around 5'10" --- GSP had never fought at 155 and Khabib had never fought at 170... so theirs was a fight that never could have happened, even in the best of circumstances; if one went to the other's division, it's likely going to affect his strength a bit...
The GOAT...easily...Not Khabib, not Jon Jones, not Usman...GSP the GOAT...best ever...“I'm training all the time. My goal is perfection. But I will never reach perfection.”you were perfect fighter...it is honor that i lived through your career!!!!Legend!!!thank you for everything!!!!
Only kids think khabib is even in the conversation. He had to drop down 2 weight classes cutting an ungodly amount of weight to wrestle his way to boring wins against much smaller guys. He defended his title a few times and bounced when he got too old to do those harsh cuts! Jones ruined his career being a multi cheat and all around awful person. Kamaru still has a chance but he's just so cringey and hard to like. GSP is a god in the UFC, he built the sport and changed the game in so many ways, from training to diet and even pushed for stricter drug testing to help legitimise the sport. He's up there w Bruce Lee for what he means to MMA and I'm not even joking one bit. The way he represents the sport too he's dam near perfect
@@knightrider693well said!!! i think of GSP everything that you said!!!
@Brett M he left because he was having gastro intestinal problems too! I forget what disease he has or what point in his career that was?..he took a break once then took another hiatus before coming out of retirement to beat Bisping but he absolutely cleaned out his division so I'd never say he was trying to duck anyone during his long title def run
Khabib will forgotten soon
Wish people would also give Demetrious Johnson his due respect.
UFC was, is and forever be GSP house. Thank you for puting the greatest shows/ fights and for that you will forever be a true legend. Chants: “GSP. GSP. GSP..”
He really is the GOAT. Look at how he carries himself inside and outside of the cage. He really is an inspiring individual, and he serves as a wonderful role model for all of us on this earth. ✌️💯
GSP represents the best qualities of what it is to be a mix martial artist. Forever learning, respectful of your opponent, learn from your loses and come back better than ever. Not just proud as a fellow Canadian but also as a man.
I don't think you'll find anyone in any sport that's both as dominant and loved/respected as GSP; he's one of kind.
GSP is the Greatest of all time.... Truly humble and a great ambassador of mixed martial arts.
GSP has always been a class act
Gsp the goat!! 🐐
Folks sometimes fail to realize that while winning 2 world titles in 2 different weight classes is impressive, but to win world titles in 2 different ERA'S of the sport truly defines his greatness and who he is. His ability to adapt/evolve with the sport and stay ahead of the curve is what always set him apart from the rest.
Legendary fighter!!
He had such an open mind to approaching grow in MMA. I remember when he incorporated gymnastics into his training camp.
There are a lot of "GOATS", but GSP is the best of the best, he's "the" GOAT in every way 🙏🏻🐉
GSP, Wayne Gretzky and Terry Fox….three amazing Canadians!!!!
The man,the champion,the legend and most certainly The GOAT. To stay humble and be a great human is just as important.
nothing but the GOAT.
@Brett M shut the f up, you dont know what you are talking about, he was fed up with all the doping culture in the sport. Gsp influenced the game more that any other fighter in ufc history. Of course mma is better today but he still fought world class fighter at the time. The bests Dana white had to offer
An absolute icon, nobody will never be like GSP. Thank you for everything GSP we all love you for everything. Thank you 🙏 will always be appreciated
I met George like many people in Montreal have. I was at a festival and he was waiting in line (yes waiting like everyone else) a few people ahead of me. He noticed someone dropped a napkin and he picked it up and put in the trash. I couldn’t resist asking him for a photo, he grabbed my phone and wrapped his arm around my shoulder. 10/10 human being.
I was living in South Korea when he came back to fight Bisping, and I screamed so loud when he won that my neighbours were worried I got hurt. What a legend!
GSP embodies the perfect martial artist both inside and outside the cage. You can’t be complete without having both and he certainly had it. Truly Amazing
The Goat truly, he did carry the flag for Canada and did us proud. Was a shining example for other athletes to follow I could go on for days talking about what George did but you as fans already know all that. the goat
Can we take a moment to appreciate that they made a video for this man and had tons of fighters pay their respects and why he's the goat to them. Gotta love Gsp
Even Khabib Admires him he surely is different 🐐
He was Khabib's dad favorite fighter and his dream fight was GSP vs his son
Greatest of all time in my eyes, in and out the cage.
Gsp, the legend. True martial artist. Nothing but respect & admiration for that man. Likable, lovable, impressive. A special guy. All class.
GSP is someone I still look up to today. I remember watching him all the time growing up. I always though of him as the "GOAT" as a kid anyway.
The thing that made George so good was his timing.. All his attacks started the same so the timing through fighters off
Gsp is the definition of what it means to be a champion and show the respect to your fellow athletes.
So glad I got hooked on UFC and watching GSPs reign. My all-time favorite fighter
A true inspiration! Amazing mindset. The greatest all time.
He was already in his hiatus when I started getting into the sport but I knew of him from the way experts talked about him. Then I could sense his star power in the build up to the Bisping fight and _I was impressed by his performance_ in the fight. Yes, I meant to say it like that. I have since learned more about his career and appreciate why people call him the GOAT.
El mejor de todos los tiempos, sin discusión “ GSP “
Class act and just a good human being that's why he my favorite fighter of all time I do consider him not only the greatest welterweight fighter but best fighter thank u for all the great fights george st pierre Gsp gsp gsp
Truly legendary. He is always gonna be a king anywhere he goes.
Even his haters respect him. Simply the best.
LEGEND ❤️✌🏼
Greatest of all time. A true class act and a brilliant legend. We love you GSP!!!
I followed GSP from the start, he has always been my #1, it’s funny, watching this got me a little emotional. I arrived to Toronto in 2000 as an Aussie and was definitely proud to be a part of his fan base in Canada. His poise, professionalism and integrity set him apart from nearly every other fighter. It’s so interesting to think of his mental state and the psychology of a fighter - he confesses that he hated fighting and every fight he competed in, but his desire to attain his goals and dreams gave him the strength to become his best self. Much love and respect always for GSP. ✌️👊
GSP yes he is...The best hands down... My favorite is Fedor, Sakaraba, but man GSP fought the best and still is the best..
The greatest MMA fighter of all time 🐐
@Paddy O’Connor I love Silva, but his losses to Chris Weidman ruined his legacy in my opinion
Damn near started tearing up gsp is a international treasure no one hates him hope he stays with us forever
A champion both in and outside the ring , a true mixed martial artist. We love you George!
The GOAT. And I don't fucking care what anyone says
To me GSP is the GOAT. 1. He was the champion in 2 divisions and for many years (yeah the years matter as well not just the fights). 2. He had many many title defences. 3. He avenged his only two losses in an emphatic way in both occassions. 4. He was dominant in his wins most of the times. 5. He never popped for anything. 6. The level of competition that he beat was the highest of all other GOAT candidates (only Jones can be considered to have had the same level of competition). 7. He was an all around fighter. He could do everything extremely well. 8. He always carried himself out of the ring like a GOAT and was the face of what the sport should be like. To me the only other person that could be considered the GOAT is Jones. If hadn't failed on No5. so many times I would accept him as the GOAT too. No other fighter even comes close to be considered the GOAT in my opinion.
Agreed man, GSP is the GOAT, Jones close 2nd. No one comes close. Khabib fanboys need to realise that
@@duck8997 Khabib was amazing, but he lacked in the numbers 1, 2 and 6 on the list above.
@@bassmike7021 exactly also he faced weak competition and he only fought 6 legit dudes. His actual impressive record ia 6-0. Alot of people surpass him let alone GSP and Jones. Amazing fights towards the end of his career, Amazing career too but calling him the GOAT is a stretch that khabib fanboys always go for
He’s the reason I fell in love with this sport.
His class says everything about him. Man the memories of his fights
What a legend
GSP is undoubtedly the MMA GOAT.
WOW!!!!! One of ,if not, the best MMA FIGHTER EVER!!!
Man people forget these GOATs all the time! UFC needs to do these more often! These fighters gave us so many emotions! We have to honour them right!
GSP was active in a time when we know almost everyone was on steroids and he was a Champion in many ways.🐐😉🇮🇪💯❤
Salvage Fighter, gentle personality. Top 3 GOAT , to me 💪💪💪
My favorite GSP fight was Josh Koscheck. It's not his best fight, but it does showcase that you don't want to make George mad. Absolutely the GOAT!
GSP is the greatest living material artist on earth.
I used to think Jon Jones was the number 1 Goat but because of all the stuff he did outside the Octagon i would put him at number 3 behind Aldo number 2 and GSP number 1
He is the GOAT because: - Amazing skills - 9 titles defence - Champion in 2 different category Ok... but what makes him the real GOAT is outside the octogon - Makes the sport popularity too another level, more worldwide than only american - First too bring new sponsor not in the fighter market (like Underarmor or Gatorade) - Everything he did to stop drugs and fight for USADA - No problem with justice or behavior that gave the sport a bad image - Got out when he was still winning
Also didn't jump Outta the cage like an uneducated lunatic.
I am impressed by his performance
I respected the graciousness of all these tremendous fighters to praise GSP so sincerely. The man not only is the greatest fighter to ever live, he brings the best out of those around him
God bless everyone 💓
The real GOAT
Bro also kicked the Falcon's ass a few times! How many UFC fighters have done that!
This man hands down was and still is my favorite fighters of all time for ufc homie was just built different 💪🏿
Yeah man dont care about recodes or any of that shit.. Hes just the GOAT for me
Perfect fighter
The absolute GOAT, there's no relative concepts applied to this man, the very best, the GOAT.
I'm not crying from joy. You are!!
