Apparently Georges St. Pierre has taken back his dignified response to getting beaten by Matt Serra at UFC69. After the fight GSP stood up and admitted that Serra was the better man which for him to do was very much in accordance with his honorable character…
UFCmania published some audio of the talented, young Canadian and it didn’t portray him as the honorable gentleman that most people thinks he is. GSP claimed to still have the same old knee injury that stopped him from defending his title at UFC67. His training prior to the event was something he raised as being insufficient and not only the amount of training and the time he prepared for but also the conditions in his training camp.
And finally, the icing on the cake is how he says that if the fight been against Matt Hughes, he would have pulled out because he was unprepared and unwilling to fight such a skilled fighter in Matt Hughes, someone he obviously hold in high regards yet doesn’t extend this as far as Matt Serra. Of course, Matt Serra being the straight up guy that he is had a response and I thank UFCmania for the quotes here:
“Georges St. Pierre is a pathetic liar. He stood up after the fight like a man and admitted he got beat. Now this bullshit? How do you do a total 180? It’s so disheartening. I earned this. I worked my friggin’ ass off for this fight. All I did was give him respect and now he wants to save face by shitting on me? All I heard before the fight was how he was going to train like he never trained before and that he had to be absolutely perfect, and now he says he didn’t train. So which is it? Are you a liar now or a liar then? Everything is a cliché with this guy. Stop reading from the script for once and speak from the heart.
Don’t get me wrong, he’s a good, talented fighter but he got beat. I know it’s hard for his camp to believe that Superman lost, but he did. Now they want to say it’s because he wasn’t in shape? If he wasn’t in shape he wouldn’t have been able to go five rounds but he didn’t even last three minutes so I don’t want to hear it. Maybe it’s his entourage — he’s led around by a bunch of morons, well except for his kickboxing coach that guy gets it. But the rest of them they got him convinced he’s a God. He must be a mental midget, which makes us about even since I’m a physical midget. Hey what can I say, I wasn’t blessed with height.
Anyway, for a guy who preaches honor and character, he sure isn’t showing any. I miss the old GSP. I was just as big a fan of his as everyone else. Where is he? You know, that guy who was everything Matt Hughes wasn’t. That makes it even worse. We already knew Matt Hughes was an asshole but Georges was supposed to be one of the good guys. Now we see what he’s really made of. He was calling me his friend before the fight and now all of the sudden I was never anything more than an acquaintance. Well fuck you, I don’t want to be your friend. Hit the road Frenchy.”
Come on Georges, please at least respond and apologize and clear this up.
