Firas Zahabi has long been teasing ideas for the next Georges St.Pierre match however he was forced to suceed recently and admit that it might be a long time yet until we see GSP enter the octagon again:
When prodded Zahabi confirmed: “He’s out at least a year or two.”
John Danaher previously revealed GSP’s fight camp for Bisping was plagued by problems:
Two weeks into camp he developed severe stomach pains and vomiting. Initially it was suspected that he had an illness, but all tests came back negative. The situation deteriorated to the point that for two weeks of a six week camp there was no training at all. At a critical point we gave him a two day window to either get back in the gym or call off the fight. The first grappling workout he had he vomited heavily prior to workout and then went to work. The next day he had the worst standing sparring session I have ever seen him have. Finally the stomach issue issue resolved itself to a degree where he could train satisfactorily and the workouts improved dramatically- though the vomiting continued all the way up to the day of the fight.
St.Pierre has been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. Ulcerative colitis is a inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes long-lasting inflammation and ulcers (sores) in your digestive tract.
