Georges St. Pierre vs. Carlos Condit in works for UFC 154 in Montreal, Canada
Posted on June 11, 2012, 07:53 AM by Anton GurevichAccording to MMAFighting.com, reigning UFC Welterweight champion, Georges "Rush" St. Pierre, is expected to make return to the Octagon on November 17th, facing the interim champ Carlos Condit for the Undisputed UFC Welterweight title.
This will be St. Pierre's first fight since UFC 129 encounter with Jake Shields. The French-Canadian champ is currently on a 9-fight winning streak, with 6 Decision victories. St. Pierre holds a perfect record in Montreal, where he won and defended his UFC Welterweight title (Serra, Koscheck).
As for Carlos Condit, Interim UFC Welterweight champion wants to prove a point, after getting criticized by fans for his "safety first" approach against Nick Diaz at UFC 142. Condit recently spoke about waiting for Georges St. Pierre, and the potential rematch with Martin "The Hitman" Kampmann:

I hope GSP will make that dude bleed seriously. and then, end the lucky streak of Martin Kampmann. I dislike those 2 fighters so much. Especially Kampmann who got lucky 2 times in a row against much better fighters than him : Alves and Ellenberger
Yes, Kampamann was rocked in both fights. The fact that he survived and won against such high competition as Alves and Ellenberger shows you how tough (not how lucky) he is. He's no P4P candidate, but he's a serious contender in the Welterweight division and can beat anyone any given day.......................
Really man? Got lucky? How many fights fedor have that was almost the exact same?
You are a ****ing retard.
I want GSP to lose to Condit and then maybe we will see GSP get some fire under him. I am dissapointed in Condit and feel he is wussing out in defense of his interim belt. All thses guys in WW need to stop trying to safely secure their positions and they might actually stand out.
I couldn't agree with you more.
I agree but fully expect to see that "weaked"
GSP + 3 round fights again.... Yeah i guess I can agree with that.
What the hell are you talking about. 'wussing out'? are you ****ing serious? Condit has earned his title shot there bud are you blind or just stupid. Interim championships mean nothing, Potentially beating one of the best fighters ever to fight in UFC is what matters. Condit said he would fight Kampman if thats what UFC wants, what the hell is your problem? and anyone who thinks hendricks is in title contention for barely beating koscheck? youre just ****ed.
Man don't get so personal. I was refering to Condits last performance and many others at welterweight are playin the safe game in order to get the title shot and the title holder has been playin itsafe for a while now. I am still a condit fan and wanted him to beat Diaz but certainly not the way he did. And now everyone wants to wait including Condit for their shot. If you want a real man, look to Urijah Faber who just put his interim belt on the line by calling out a beast unlike every other contender out there lookin back at promising matchups only otherwise they will happily wait.
"If you want a real man, look to Urijah Faber who just put his interim belt on the line by calling out a beast unlike every other contender out there lookin back at promising matchups only otherwise they will happily wait."
You're mistaken. Urijah has no Interim belt right now. He is the #1 contender, and the fight against Barao is for the Interim belt. What Urijah is doing is exactly what DIaz and Condit did when GSP went down with an injury.
You're right about the belt thing sorry, I just meant his chance at getting the interim belt was placed in a very hostile place by getting the Barao match up. But Faber has more balls than Condit or anyone else hanging in limbo for a belt shot by calling out Barao and not waiting for the UFC to give him a hopefully easier option. If there is one guy outside the Diaz brothers who fights like a champ in every fight it's Faber.
Sorry bud, but a title shot with GSP is worth alot more than a trilogy bout with dominick cruz I dont't care who you are. I can't believe how over sensitive you 'mma' fans are....
I will say this one more time for those who did not understand it. CONDIT HAD EARNED HIS SHOT AT GSP AND HE OFFERED TO FIGHT KAMPMAN. is there something here you dont understand?
Lame. Too long between belt defenses.
For Condit, waiting on GSP is a smart decision on at least 2 counts: he's not running any risk in losing to a top contender like Kampmann who beat him before or a dangerous rising star as Hendrix. Let's face it: Condit is evenly matched against top welterweights (Diaz/Ellenberger/Kampmann) and can win or lose in a fight. Secondly, having a crack at the champ will--win or lose--be very rewarding financially; the wait is worth it on that sense. Thirdly, who would forfeit a once-in-a-life-time chance to fight for the belt? Few will do that......................
If you think you can actually win the belt then you shouldnt be worried about losing to anyone that doesn't even have it. If you win you look even tougher and gain some ever important experience, if you lose you still have some work to do and better to find out now then against the champ and need even more time to get another shot.
Points 1&2 definitely make sense but 3.... geez you're not forfeiting the chance to fight for the belt. A fighter expects to win right? A true champion takes on all comers so what is the guy waiting for? He stopped fighting because he got the INTERIM belt??? If he was the real champ or he didn't have any belt at all, he would fight constantly right? Yes he would. Just fight. He's the NBK! What's he's scared of!
No surprise GSP fighting in Montreal, doesn't he fight there every year?
Nothing but homecooking for this guy. Wish they'd make GSP vs Anderson in Brazil.
Actually, few of GSP's total fights are in Canada. Dana White wants a sure, and big gate--that's one big reason. Also, with a full house going nuts--it looks good on PPV.
Maybe they should fight fight in Florida instead?

"You still don't get it, do you? He'll find (you)! That's what he does! That's ALL he does! You can't stop him! He'll wade through you, reach down her throat and pull her ****in' heart out!"
