Georges St. Pierre has shown once again why he’s the best mixed martial artist in the world: He doesn’t just keep winning, but he keeps getting better every time.
St. Pierre dominated Josh Koscheck for 25 minutes Saturday night at UFC 124, retaining the UFC welterweight championship with a unanimous decision victory that all three judges scored in St. Pierre’s favor, 50-45. St. Pierre has been working with the renowned boxing trainer Freddie Roach, and it clearly paid off, as St. Pierre used his boxing to a greater extent than ever before in his career.
“Josh Koscheck likes to throw his punch circular, and me, I’m a straight puncher,” St. Pierre said afterward. “So the issue was to keep him on the outside.”
