News, Top Story

Georges St-Pierre has gone on the record.

The former welterweight champion talked to MMAJunkie.com and revealed his thoughts on the state of drug testing in MMA, when he will return, and his thoughts on Vitor Belfort being granted a title shot despite failing a drug test.

Here are some of the key highlights:

– On performing-enhancing drugs in MMA…
GSP: I will never fight again in MMA without my opponent and myself being thoroughly tested for the most advanced PEDs by a credible independent anti-doping organization like VADA or USADA under the strictest standards of the World Anti-Doping Association (WADA) Code.

-On Vitor Belfort getting a title despite having previously failed a drug test…
GSP: I like Vitor as a person and training partner. Everyone knows my stance on PEDs but I’m not going to comment on who deserves a title shot or not. If he’s eligible for a title shot under a certain set of rules and he gets it, then I’m happy for him.
