Tweets of the Day: Georges St. Pierre attends UFC 196, return imminent?

Former welterweight champ Georges St-Pierre has made a rare appearance at a UFC event.

Georges St-Pierre hasn’t attended much UFC events since deciding to go on a hiatus from the sport. For some reason, the all-time great has decided to fly to vegas for UFC 196, and it has been leading to much speculation about a possible return at UFC 200.

St-Pierre isn’t one to just pop up randomly for no reason, and naturally this appearance will lead to questions about a comeback.

GSP isn’t the type to come to Vegas to just hang out and watch fights. He played coy and I asked about 200 and McGregor. Very interesting.

The 34-year-old hasn’t competed since 2013. It may be safe to say it is unlikely at this point in time, but a possible bout against McGregor — who has moved up and has been talking about competing for the welterweight title — will surely be a massive fight that will easily sell.
