MONTREAL – For a man who thinks deeply through life’s every aspect – or for a guy with a master’s in philosophy, as John Danaher is – the fight camp of Georges St-Pierre has posed several interesting problems.

He was forced to do that when a torn ACL preceded St-Pierre’s title unification bout with Carlos Condit at UFC 154.
