“I Have Two Personalities” – Georges St-Pierre Reveals What Career He Has Chosen After UFC

Former UFC two-division champion Georges St-Pierre is one of the most beloved fighters, with an enormous fan base. Fans and MMA experts often regard him as one of the, if not the, greatest MMA fighter of all time.

A fighter with so many credentials, one might think fighting is something St-Pierre enjoyed. But that is not the case. He has repeatedly come out and said that fighting is something he never enjoyed. ‘Rush’ recently gave an interview in which he extensively talked about how he doesn’t miss fighting anymore and never enjoyed it.

In the interview, Georges also talked about his personality and his approach to fights. Georges said, “I have two personalities. I have one, the one that is talking to you right now. It’s Georges St-Pierre, he’s a nice guy, he tries to be a good role model, he doesn’t like to fight, he loves freedom, his lifestyle. But there’s another person I can become sometimes during training when I hit the pads. My body and my memory. I remember the mechanic of my movement, and when that happens, it turns on something in my brain that I become a different kind of person.”

UFC recently inducted Georges St-Pierre in the UFC Hall of Fame. During the event, St-Pierre to UFC President Dana White, said, “I made a joke to Dana, during the Hall of Fame ceremony, I told him that if you really want me to come back, just hide somewhere and wait that I’m in the middle of training and come with a contract and offer me a fight. Because if you come before or after, for sure I will not accept it.”

Georges made his MMA debut in 2002 and soon caught the eye of the UFC. The promotion signed him in 2004. He made quite a name for himself in the UFC. Georges, before his first retirement in 2013, won the UFC welterweight title twice. In 2017, he came out of retirement and faced UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping for the title. He won the fight in the fourth round via technical submission and became only the fourth fighter in the history of the UFC to be a multi-division champion.

He vacated the belt after just 34 days of winning it because of an injury. Georges St-Pierre, in 2019, officially retired from MMA.

Besides being a fighter, St-Pierre has also bagged some roles in big Hollywood movies and TV shows. He played the role of Georges Batroc in Captain America: The Winter Soldier in 2014. He was also seen in Kickboxer: Vengeance and Cartels. ‘Rush’ reprised the role of Georges for Marvel’s TV show, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and voiced the character in Marvel’s animated series, What If…?.

St-Pierre, in the interview, also said that he has some projects coming up. He also mentioned that he has been working on his acting and is taking camera classes, theatre classes, acting classes, and English classes. Some projects are coming up this fall, but I can’t talk about them.

It’s safe to say that Georges St-Pierre has left his fighting career behind him and is solely focused on his acting career.
