Former UFC welterweight and middleweight champion Georges St-Pierre has been inducted into the UFC’s Hall Of Fame recently. St-Pierre will go down as one of the best fighters to grace the UFC octagon along with the likes of Anderson Silva, Jon Jones, and more. The Canadian legend has been a fan favorite throughout his career, thanks to his incredible fighting skills and pleasant personality.

‘Rush’ thanked the fans for staying by his side throughout his career in his induction speech. It’s true that fans have been a major part of GSP’s support system in his career. So, it’s understandable why the Canadian wanted to return the favor through his speech.

“Thanks to the fans. I have the best fans in the world. And they have been loyal to me and for what I stand for,” said St-Pierre. “They stuck with me even when I took my four years off from fighting. I especially want to thank the fans from Canada. Wherever I fought in Canada, I could feel the love in ways I never thought possible,” he added further.

Where does Georges St-Pierre rank among the greatest fighters of all time?

St-Pierre is a veteran of the sport, considered by many to be the first complete MMA fighter. He was a dominant champion of the welterweight division of the UFC for a long time. The Canadian native has defeated the likes of Matt Hughes, Nick Diaz, and more throughout his career.

Furthermore, he made a comeback after a lengthy layoff to fight the then middleweight champion Michael Bisping at UFC 217. St-Pierre managed to earn a submission win on that occasion, to become a champion in two different weight classes. He has truly had a legendary career in the promotion, to say the least. And now St-Pierre has received the honor of being inducted into the UFC’s Hall of Fame.

Will the fans ever get to witness St-Pierre back in the UFC Octagon? Let us know your thoughts.
