The battle lines continue to be drawn in the ongoing standoff between the UFC and welterweight legend Georges St-Pierre.
St-Pierre stunned the mixed martial arts world Monday when he announced that his lawyers had terminated his old UFC contract following months of failed negotiations to reach a new deal with Zuffa. The announcement effectively made St-Pierre one of the most coveted free agents in the sport's history, and St-Pierre's lawyer, James Quinn of New York firm Weil, Gotshal and Manges, told MMA Fighting on Wednesday that he was "blown away" by the language he discovered in St-Pierre's deal.
