Many professional fighters and fans have often hated the brothers for making the sport too commercialized. However, UFC legend Georges St-Pierre is not one of them. Recently, during an interview, ‘Rush’ talked about ‘The Problem Child’ and Logan Paul, revealing what he thinks of everything the brothers are doing.
‘GSP’ said, “I’m not one of the haters. I think they’re doing well. They are great athletes and they ride the wave, they make a lot of money with it, and I’m glad for him.”

While Georges St-Pierre clearly does not hate Jake and ‘The Maverick’, he does believe they are not ready to compete at the top level of combat sports just yet.
“I believe it’s a mistake to think that they could compete amongst the elite of boxing or mixed martial arts because it’s not true, but they are great athletes. Maybe as time goes by, they will improve and improve, and one day if they want to give it a real shot.”
