Former two-weight UFC champion, Georges St-Pierre has claimed if he would have accepted an offer to fight Octagon alum, Nate Diaz during their respective tenures with the promotion, it would be viewed as a “bully” by many critics and fans alike.
St-Pierre, a former undisputed middleweight champion and decorated welterweight titleholder, called time on his illustrious mixed martial arts career back in 2019 officially, having snapped a lengthy hiatus back in 2017 in a middleweight title charge.
And landing his second Octagon crown, Canadian fan-favorite, St-Pierre headlined UFC 217 in New York at Madison Square Garden, defeating then-champion, Michael Bisping with an eventual third round rear-naked choke.
