Georges St-Pierre: Dustin Poirier loss is a chance for Conor McGregor to be ‘reborn’

Georges St-Pierre believes in Conor McGregor and is confident the Irishman will mount a successful comeback following his knockout loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 257 — but how will he do it?

Speaking to fellow UFC legend Michael Bisping on a recent episode of Believe You Me, St-Pierre revealed how he overcame his own shock KO loss to Matt Serra at UFC 69 and advised McGregor to treat the Poirier defeat as a blessing in disguise.

That loss, according to GSP, is a chance for ‘The Notorious’ to be completely ‘reborn’ as a fighter — but he’ll have to make some serious changes outside the cage.
