Georges St. Pierre: 'I learn something every time I watch Anderson Silva fight'

Quoteworthy:
"I watched that fight because I like Anderson Silva and the way he fights, I learn every time that Anderson Silva fights. I like to watch the best guys in the business fighting because I learn from them and Anderson Silva is one of them. Chael Sonnen now became one of them. But no... it [a fight with Silva] is not on my radar right now."
The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 12 coach and UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre had a quick Q&A with Fighter Only in which he reasserted his admiration for Anderson Silva and even admitted that learns new tricks watching Silva's fights. GSP also noted that a fight with Anderson is not "on his radar right now." Will "The Rush" and "The Spider" ever meet inside the Octagon? After what Chael Sonnen accomplished against Silva, do you now believe more in Georges chances?

I pretty much love Silva fights.
Me too GSP, me too. I like to watch Silva fight because I learn something new all the time. And no, I’m not a fighter. Just about everybody is watching Silva including Greg Jackson. He loves the weird capoiera sh*t, I do too.
We already know a fight against Silva is off your radar but you will probably continue to repeat that as fans, and the media continue to ask you repetitive questions.
Are you gunning for this match or it’s just news to sell papers?
It’s just news to sell papers and gain hits online. That is all.

With the right money they square off at middleweight division.

weird capoiera sh*t
So, did you like teh Pettis/Roller fight on WEC last week?

I hated capoiera before that
but, I have to admit, that was entertaining. Admittedly though, it would have been more entertaining to see someone try that and get KTFO. Reminded me of the monkey guy from Bloodsport.

Anderson Silva tries to watch GSP fights, but falls asleep in the 4th round every time.

Yeah...that capoiera crap would never work in the UFC
Reminds me of that lame movie “Only the Strong Survive”
I love that cheesy ass movie.

What? How to finish?
Anderson Silva is by far the number one P4P king!!! Even when he is losing a fight he still comes back and finishes for the win! GSP dominates the whole fight and still can't finish! LOL
Don't want to see the fight anyway
GSP won’t be able to do anything better than Sonnen did, and he’s smaller and has worse gnp but probably better sub defense.
Sonnen has a much better chance imo.

agreed.
In grappling, size counts. Chael is one of the few guys at MW that’s as big as Silva. GSP is WAY smaller. You saw how tiny GSP looked compared to Dan “Blow” Hardy…and Silva is considerably bigger than Hardy and WAY more skilled in every aspect of the game than Blow.

WTF is he holding??

Most guys would like any of the chicks this guy turns away
And he prefers women with a dark hue apparently. But your comment was a good one!!!!

The ONLY thing GSP should have learned from Ando's last fight
is that he CAN beat him.

I think everyone should hand out that qualification
Just as an FYI.
How many non-canadian straight men call GSP their favorite fighter? I am honestly curious.
"We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again."
I live in New Orleans (for about another month), I am straight, and GSP is my favorite fighter.
Ahh, that felt good.
GSP’s female ass-pulling is P4P way higher than Penn’s. Just saying.

Ya got the ass pulling part right...

can't say it any better than this
I actually erased what I was typing. +1
"We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again."
Look at all of these GSP haters
Just because Penn couldn’t attract a special olympian or their throng of followers doesn’t mean that you should put the hate on GSP for having style. And chicks.

In all fairness
when have you ever SEEN Clay Guida, Cain Velasquez, Bobby Lashley, Nick Diaz, etc, etc, etc, with ladies?
GSP could be plowing a different girl every night and us fans would not know.

b/c GSP has style
and all the ladies LOVE him. Those are two very clear signs to me. Not that there is anything wrong with that. . . .
"We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again."
All the guys you just listed are ugly as sin...
proves nothing. GSP is a great fighter, but definitely gay. That’s why he wears the tights and is so good at lay and praying. Might as well except him for what he is.
and I could care less
if it weren’t for the fact that my lady loves him. I just like reminding her that I have a better chance at landing him.
"We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again."
and it makes for funny banter
with the guys who love him back.
"We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again."
i always do the GSP is gay jokes/pictures
but playing advocate. NONE of us know.
as far as the tights go, is Joseph Benevidez a fanny bandit? Tyson Griffin? Phil Davis?

he is desperately searching for any photo with GSP and a chick that

I particularly like the one in the hot tub
you know, the one where he is leaning away from the tits and towards the man boobs on his right.
"We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again."
nit picking a little eh
he is either party chinese or shmammered in that pic.

I didn’t think I was nitpicking. He honestly looks like he wants to be away from those girls as quickly as possible. All of these are posed photos..

Sort of like the ones in your house eh Deuce02?

Posed pictures in your house?????
With your wife? You two together? Do I need to draw this for you as a picture may make more sense?
I see where you are coming from on this thread. Your statement about GSP being gay, looking for others to admit if there are any straight Americans who like him, and proof of pictures of GSP with women. Fairly straightforward (something you may not relate to) homophobic comments if you ask me……not that there is anything wrong with that.

we (most) all pick at GSP for his appearingly homosexual man riddum
i am just playing devils advocate today.
Noone knowes, especially us the fans that ONLY see him when he fights/interviews.

yeah, maybe you should draw it up more
because it just isn’t a very funny joke. Settle down hairybumcrack- or should I say sandyvagina? I am a known BJ supporter. My girl likes GSP. I like to give her shit and any other GSP fan shit about the fact that he is questionable. Yes, there is nothing wrong with that. But, that doesn’t mean I can’t joke about it.
"We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again."
Just reiterating your points
I’m only having some fun here too…..we all know there are countless posts about GSP’s questionable sexual preference. And I love to poke some fun to the Penn fans as well…..since he fights to the death!!!!

I can't tell if we are arguing or not
I was trolling a little bit though.
"We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again."
GSP is one of my favs. Andy, him and Machida. An asshole, someone who likes assholes (allegedly) and someone who drinks out of pee holes. We all have our quirks...

hopefully he leaned how to stay busy from top position from sonnen so i can actually watch one of his fights
heres to hoping that koscheck finishes gsp
Right, because Sonnen is known for being active from the top and finishing people.

Tsp should be begging to fight anderson after seeing what chael did to him.
Gsp is a pussy…..and he probably is gay. Just saying. I hope kos knocks him out and I hate kos.

GSP was at the fight in Abu Dhabi to challenge AS, but after the piss poor show Ando gave Dana White said no way. If you want to blame anyone for them not fighting blame Ando and his in ring antics. The fight was all but a go before that.

Get outta here, MM_eh

Noons does not have power in his hands. Maybe his knees but his hands do not have KO power. they’re good enough to cut up and swell up gurgel’s face, but he won’t be ko’ing gurgel tonight.-STAK
Says right here that he was invited cage side to look at putting the fight on…what could have changed their minds. I’m not saying it’s the only reason, but GSP doesn’t schedule the fights either. He showed up so it’s not like he bitched out.

you linked an article that has dana talking about how the fight doesnt make much sense and he wants to see ando at 205.
i will agree with you tho that GSP cageside was odd and probably to entice.

Dana says a lot of stuff. I think Dana was thinking about it and keeping his options open. For what ever reason he decided not to do it (maybe it was the size difference or maybe the ring antics), but I think GSP thought it would probably happen and didn’t back out. He showed up and that shows me he isn’t affraid of fighting AS.

GSP needs to fight Ando NOW

GSP The most boring fighter in the world
GSP = The most boring nut hugging champion of the world. I still like him just for the fact that he wisely use his fame to get as much ass as possible.
