Video | GSP Talks Exit From World Series Of Poker And Plans To Come Back And Try Again | UFC News
By Jamie McAllister
UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St Pierre was eliminated from The World Series Of Poker on the first day of the competition this past weekend in Las Vegas. St Pierre was taking part in the competition to raise money for his Anti-Bullying charity.
St Pierre comments on his exit and says he had a great time and would like to try it again.
“The sport of mixed martial arts, it’s similar to poker, in the way that you need to leave your ego and your emotion outside of the Octagon, or outside of the table. I’m good to do it in my sport, but in poker, I had a lot of problems doing it, which is why I lose some very important hands. I had a great time and I want to come back and do it again.”

GSP is a joke not only is he milking the hell out of his injury (LIKE HE HA ALWAYS DONE HIS ENTIRE CAREER) but he has the time to go set aside a week away from MMA when he is suppose to be rehabbing. GSP is no longer gthe champ IMO and millions more agree with me. go around to otehr MMA sites and EVERYONE has lost respect and all confidence in GSP as his committment to the sport MMA. I predict his sponsers start dropping like flies. GSP has very few fights for being 30 and he acts like he is a 25 year vet in the sport and he fights about as much as Sean Sherk. Gee what do GSP and Sherk have in common which is a proven scientific FACT that makes your body FALL APART at a young age? PED’s I’m tired of hearing the lame ass crap how sicne GSP has never tested positive no way he is a JUICER. HELLO the man fights only every few years and ANYONE can pass aROID test when they know they will be tested. GSP will retire as soon as they announce random testing although we all know GSP can afford the worlds best DESIGNER undectabel PED’s and HGH just like Barry bonds did. Money buys anything including advantages in everything. GSP backed out of a fight on aeeks notice last winter who’s to say he didn’t get his independent lab results back that showed he cut it too close on his cycling. He later admitted he wasn’t too injure to fight and then a few weeks later he did actaully PARTIALLY tear his ACL (BADDDDD KARMMMAAA) is what that is. No way GSP would allow VADA random testing in his or anyone elses camps at TRISTAR. Victor Conte has been selling (SAME DESIGNER ROIDS) to MMA fighter for over 2 years now that he sold to barry Bonds and countless other pro athletes. Everyone jsut needs to thank Kyle kingsbury for bringing Conte into MMA.
Omg shut the **** up you moron. Im not gonna read that entire essay of bullshit. I read something about GSP and him taking PED’s. In GSP’s entire career he never tested positive for PED’s so you cant prove that he has taken PED’s before. Shut the **** up you just ramble on bunch of nonsense and expect people to follow your retarded logic when none of it is true whatsoever, and you call it a fact.
TLDR…………….Are you back off your meds again????
dude i stopped reading after like 2 sentances…. How can you say GSP is a joke? yeah its lame hes been so inactive lately, but he tore his ACL thats about one of the most serious injuries an athelete can suffer..Id be a fool if i said the guy has never taken PED’s because i dont know the man, iv never met him or anything so i cant say either way, but i dont think he has. He’s still the WW champion and he probably will be for even longer..You should be a fan of his the way he spanked Jon Fitch a while back XD
Has anyone else noticed the latest MMA rankings with the major MMA sites lately. GSP has dropped down to #3 and #4 in the WELTERWEIGHT Division. I think that eventually happens to anyone in any sport when you only fight every 2 years or so and get injured every otehr day. Damn for being such a self advetised “super athlete” GSP is sure turned into a fragile old man at 30 years old. Thats what happens when you JUICE for so many years in your 20′s
I’m not impressed by your performance
Is it me or does GSP compare everything to MMA?
For some reason GSP reminds me of how they portrayed Jean Claude Van Damn on Celebrity Death Match.
He’s taken to many blows to the head lmao….. poor guy, money does change our perception but if we were to hear what he says from a regular guy, we would all think they are crazy!!
