BJ Penn was hoping to make a trilogy fight with Georges St-Pierre happen upon his comeback, aiming at UFC 205 in November. But apparently, it is not a plan that GSP has in his immediate future, as he feels it is a risk that is not worth taking.

"It's an unnecessary risk for my legacy, for my career to take to fight a guy like him right now,” St-Pierre said. “It has nothing that will be good for me right now. I think he's very dangerous. If it would be a walk in the park, I would do it.
