UFC champ St-Pierre would consider retirement after Silva win, top-fighter ranking

UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre is ready to retire when he’s considered the sport’s pound-for-pound best.

Don’t worry, though. On a special “Primetime” edition of MMAjunkie Radio this past Friday, St-Pierre said he’s not quite there yet.

UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre is ready to retire when he’s considered the sport’s pound-for-pound best.

Don’t worry, though. On a special “Primetime” edition of MMAjunkie Radio this past Friday, St-Pierre said he’s not quite there yet.

Still, if St-Pierre takes “a couple” of welterweight fights in the next year or two, and if UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva is still the pound-for-pound king at that point, the French-Canadian then would consider moving up to fight him. And if he defeats Silva, that’s a win worthy of retirement, he said.
