Dana White Says Georges St-Pierre Won’t Fight Conor McGregor If He Returns

Dana White says that if Georges St-Pierre does return, it won’t be for a fight against Conor McGregor. White spoke with ESPN and said that should GSP decide to return, he has other opponents in mind for the former champion.

On a possible Georges St-Pierre vs. Conor McGregor fight if GSP returns: “He ain’t fighting Conor McGregor. If he wants to come back, (UFC welterweight champion) Tyron Woodley or (middleweight champion) Robert Whittaker is waiting for him. They’re both waiting if Georges wants to come back.”

On the status of St-Pierre’s potential return: “There is no status. I knew what he was doing. That’s why I put (a mandatory title defense) into his contract. We both knew what was going on. I don’t know, man. I don’t think the guy wants to fight. I think he jumped in, grabbed some cash and went back to Canada.”
