After taking a break from MMA following his split-decision victory over Johny Hendricks at UFC 167, fans who want to see Georges St-Pierre return to the octagon may just get their wish.
The former UFC welterweight champion told Montreal’s Reseau de sports (RDS) recently that he’s getting the itch to compete in the UFC once again.
“I’m starting to get the feeling, more and more, to come back,” St-Pierre said. “I watch the fights to see what’s going on in my division, and I’m staying in shape. It’s like a knife that I have to keep sharp just in case I ever decide to jump back in the mix. It’s not for sure that it won’t happen in 2015, but I’m not sure yet.”
“I’m training hard,” St-Pierre told RDS. “As you can see, I have some bumps and bruises. I didn’t get these from falling down stairs.
“Many of my regrets in life have nothing to do with things I have done, but rather things I didn’t do. And if I have one regret, it’s that I didn’t speak up sooner. In fact, I’ve been talking for a while, but they ignored it. At the end, I wanted to make the drug tests public. I should have insisted on that well before.”
