Georges St-Pierre: ‘The worst has passed’ with medical condition, ‘door still open’ for UFC return

Legendary two-division UFC champ Georges St-Pierre is currently on the sidelines, still unsure of what his next career move would be. What hampered his recently resumed UFC run was the ulcerative colitis he developed over the past year.

But according to the 37-year-old fighter, his condition is no longer a cause for concern like how it used to be.

“Definitely the worst has passed,” St-Pierre told MMA Fighting. “I’m dosing down the medication that I have. The medication is anti-inflammatory, so you have to dose it down. Not in one shot, you can’t stop in one shot, but I’m dosing it down every month and soon it will be past, a story of the past.
