No matter how many times Georges St-Pierre says he has retired, fans insist that the pound-for-pound great should come back for a mega-fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Nurmagomedov, the reigning UFC lightweight champion, is making final preparations for this Saturday’s headlining title unification bout against Dustin Poirier and, during Wednesday’s UFC 242 open workouts, ‘The Eagle’ fielded questions from fans about a potential fight with St-Pierre.
If in the unlikely scenario GSP did come out of retirement, Nurmagomedov says the former UFC welterweight and middleweight champion would have to make the cut to 155-pounds, as Khabib has no interest in changing weight class.
