They don't seem to understand that GSP has accomplished all of his goals that are clearly measurable. Now he wants to just be the best he can be and give back.
no he hasnt
Patrick: Are you on the hunt for something?
GSP: I am on the hunt to be healthy and happy!
Patrick: Ok so not really on the hunt for anything, got it.
I know kept asking the same question had to stop watching bc how repetitive the interviewer was… he just answered you twice my man
He's 41 a lot more
khabib better
These interviewers cant comprehend what GSP is trying to say. They are still thinking about life in terms of a means to an end, to achieve something; the end of "the hunt..." GSP is talking about development for the sake of development, being better as a human being for no other reason. They cant grasp it.
Patrick photo ops fake private jet travelling. What do you expect
Agreed. I was a fan of PBD when I first saw him. Smart guy, for sure. But he's pretty basic in his perspective.
exactly no goal will fill you up
@@woahblackbetty7691 Wow. Really?
These guys are wannabes, they know nothing about what deeper levels are to life
GSP has always been a stand-up guy. Mad respect for this man.
His ground game is nothing to scoff at either
@@NorHeadHunter yes. He'll sht on them on the ground too, if that happened
Still but a great wrestler too 🤣🤣
That’s because you never met him in person on the streets of Montreal he’s a separatist ass
* The 1 & only Khabib .Never lost ,Never Bleed . 29/0 . Mauled everyone he fought .all those who are not saying or against that Khabib is one of Top 5 UFC Fighters Of All Time is and are Casual Muslim Hater and Jealous. Al Hamdo Lel Allah*
His answer is so straight forward I love it. The man is like: “just gotta believe in myself and work for it.” That’s it.
That’s cool & all but khabib would out wrestle him and dominate & The Irishman would KO him stiff..
@@KTB3E dude wtf r u talking about?
@@KTB3Elay off the crack
This guy is still in shape even after leaving the sport. 🐐
Meanwhile conor is bigger but not in fight shape but looks with no gas on his latest training videos and khabib is getting fat... Gsp remains in fightshape
@@stitch9677 dont think he deserves to be in this conversation but dude he snapped his leg in half give him a break lol
gap is not goat. Khabib is goat
@@Talking_Bugatti There are multiple current fighters in the UFC with a better resume and accomplishments than Khabib. He's not even close to the GOAT he has 13 UFC fights
He's had to fight Captain America
Asking if a top tier welter/middleweight can beat some lightweight champs?
Not just top tier. The 🐐
@@alitaladar for real. They dumbed themselves down a little too hard for this video
Khabib walked around heavier than gsp he's just a weight bully
khabib is one of the goats not just a champ
@@e.k874 So is GSP
George is being the most Transparent as he can. He realize what true martial arts are about. They’re about finding inner peace. But finding inner peace after all the battles. That’s the true meaning of a Warriors expression. He’s lucky he found it. So many do not.
no idiot its about winning
khabib better
I read this in GSP's accent
... Because GSP is always evolving and can honestly evaluate himself, and because he is observant and smart....he is the GOAT of his weight class.
His intelligence level translates to his fight IQ, which is 90% ( imo ) of all successful fighters. Combined with his natural athleticism and work ethic, this made him virtually unbeatable.
Except for his underestimating of Matt Sera, and the juiced up Jhonny Hendricks, he was virtually undefeated. I'm pretty sure his striking would give him the edge in a VERY hard fought decision win over Khabib.
@@skippylanoue966agreed
I stopped doubting George years ago. Amazing human.
khabib better
@@AC-mp7cx LMFAOOOOO!!!!!!!!
@@AC-mp7cx khabib is great at takedown/wrestling. GSP is great ALL around like striking, takedown, jiu jitsu, distance and IQ
@@AC-mp7cxokay muslim
I've met Georges several times. Always humble, always grounded. He is an incredible person period.
How did you meet him? Do you know him? Can i meet him too..🙄😐I would love to meet him🥺❤....
GSP is so much more of an abstract thinker than the interviewer. The interviewer is asking GSP for concrete answers to concrete questions, but GSP is always in an abstract mindset.
You call it abstract. Others call it bullshitting his way out of fighting Khabib.
The interviewer is as basic thinking as it gets, he literally cannot speak to George’s on the level Georges is trying to communicate on.
@@Frip36 No, because he has surpassed the stage he needs to prove himself, put his body in danger, go through the enormous stress of a fight, where you need to be in the right state mentally, and physically and at last he is already OLD to be performing on the highest level anyway.
Why would you put your brain and body even in more danger if you have proven everything you need to prove to YOURSELF. He has surpassed the Warrior stage and is going towards the Statement stage. You'd do well to realize this. Khabib did not same, but you have certain fighters who go on until they are beaten to a pulp and their brain doesn't even function well enough anymore to string a decent conversation together. GSP is already losing track of time at certain moments (forgetting hours at a time), so why would he risk his sanity.. .
@@namedisclosed Not really, Patrick (The Interviewer) was asking whether GSP had a concrete goal/operation he was focused on at the moment aside from fighting. To entrepreneurs like Patrick, being healthy, happy and loved are things you do on the side. Those aren't things to be "On The Hunt" for.
@@Frip36 Khabib is not a UFC fighter.. He's irrelevance. 🤷🏼♀️
GSP is a man of class & one of the Greatest MMA fighters of all time, yet remains humble.
What the interviewers need to understand is that his lifestyle/legacy is not going to change dramatically even after defeating Conor and/or Khabib. There's only so much a practical person would want to consume personally and once past a certain point of wealth, there's only unnecessary risk to be had in training and fighting, particularly when you consider his current wealth could easily help him generate more wealth. GSP has even said he hates fighting, one more huge reason not to. He's paid a huge price. Let the man evolve and transcend himself on his own terms. As it stands, 10-20 years from now, we'd still watch a GSP interview. He will (probably) never fight again, and that's a good thing.
No I think if he beats Khabib he firmly establishes himself as the MMA GOAT, no question about it. Especially if he uses his well rounded style.
Khabib is arguably the grappling GOAT in MMA, but if he beats GSP, he establishes his style as the most supreme style in MMA, because it'll just prove that reaching the highest level of grappling is always better than being a well rounded fighter.
In essence, the fight between these two would help us answer core questions about the entire sport and not just show us who was better among these two guys.
Wrong. Defeating Conor and/or Khabib...especially Khabib would settle the great question DEFINITIVELY. It would be a MAJOR boost to GSP's legacy. But if he lost, it would be major blackmark as well. Meaning GSP would no longer be consdidered the GOAT. And what's this "I don't want to train." HE ALREADY TRAINS EVERY DAY! What else does he have to do? Then he goes into the "key is happiness" mumbo jumbo dodge. He is simply afraid of losing. That's fine. His choice. His life. But that doesn't mean we have to believe the bullshit "reasons".
It gets on my fucking tits when fighters are criticized for retiring. We all know how dangerous this sport is. Anyone who gets the fuck out on their own terms should be congratulated and left to ride off into the sun
@@Frip36 he is alrdy the goat 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Your right honestly he doesn’t need to fight anyone else and he’s still considered the goat or arguably the goat. Risking another fight would only reinforce that but if he loses then the debate is over.
Patrick seems so frustrated that he can't get GSP to acknowledge an external goal. I think as far as external goals go, he's done them. He wants to focus on inner goals.
Patrick guy doesn't understand the importance of what's within that gsp tries to make him understand. It's always external, tangible or a worldly goal to him. He's so ignorant considering he seems old.
i don't think so, i think the real reason is that patrick doesn't care to listen
i think he just tries to be like joe rogan in the sense that joe is really good at understanding what you're saying and asking meaningful and deep questions however patrick kinda knows he can do this but he also feels insecure about his ability to do so so he sort of just artificially tries to replicate this effect persistently by asking questions that sound meaningful but aren't actually meaningul. he does this a lot, if you've watched a handful of his interviews, you'll see what i'm talking about... it's just an isomorphism of waffle
Gsp would definitely fold McGregor in half
Are u kidding?????? What has gsp accomplished in his career???
@@sean2503 greatest fighter of all time, to begin with
@@juancpgo belal Muhammad try again
@@sean2503 how old are you? 12?
@@sean2503 troll.
Let me just put it this way. GSP has faced specialists and top-tier guys in UFC while they were at the top of their game. He beat Hughes, Serra, BJ, Thiago, Nick, Bisping, and so many other guys. All these guys were in their prime for the most part, and he won. I don't care what people say; he even beat a roided Hendricks. The fact Hendricks fell off after USADA tells you something. A non-roided Hendricks loses to GSP easily. Overall, GSP is a scientist when it comes to fighting, as he dissects his opponent's weakness and explores it. GSP, in his prime, easily beats Connor, and it would be a harder fight with Khabib, but this wouldn't be the first wrestler he fought. Also, Connor doesn't hit as hard as roided Hendricks. Let's be honest. Hendricks pre-USADA was rearranging people's faces and hitting like a truck. So, I think GSP would win both fights.
You said it wouldn't be harder fight with khabib .. are you serious man !!just harder fight !! Khabib never bleed no one touched his face .. did you see gsp loses and his face after fights I say this with all respect for gap but khabib is not normal wrestler and grappler he is 2 time Sambo world champion he is the best.
@@neomatrix4965 yea and their is a reason Kahbib never went to 170 despite being hospitalized trying to cut to 155 and notoriously struggling to make that weight. He’s not beating a high level grappler at 170, especially not GSP who has an advantage in every other area. Khabib would get his faces jabbed off by George
@@neomatrix4965 You Kabobers are embarrassing man
@@Loganbub Well there's a reason GSP never never went up to 185 to face Anderson too. But conveniently went up when Bisping was champ lol.
@@hiteshsharma1132 that might be so but GSP didn’t struggle with his cuts like Khabib did. Pl
Love the questions and the answers and the back and forth. Realized as I was listening that PBD is ultimately a materialist in his concerns -- that is not a criticism. But he localizes the hunt and the hunt for things in largely worldly terms. GSP is more expansive and metaphysical in his current hunt and therefore more difficult to pin down in the conversation. I suspect, given more reflection, that GSP probably doesn't want to hunt anything else anymore in worldly terms. Whatever there is to hunt he hunted early on better than any of us and knows it's limits once you get it. PBD still has a way to go in that realization and journey, but seems like a sincere and self-reflecting person enough that he will get there, too. A Beautiful exchange. Really enjoyed this. Kudos to you all for investing in the ideas and engaging each other this sincerely and vulnerably.
insightful comment
@@harrydhillon_re thank you!
Very true. Maybe GSP feels like he has achieved all he wanted materialistically so they don't motivate him anymore. Hunting to fulfill his inner self is more important than any "thing" on the outside.
Reminds me of the quote: "...they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life."
Great comment, very well said, totally agree. The hunt should not just be localized to business/money or "worldly things" as you said. The main hunt should be for true and full happiness and that includes great health which is actually much more important than money and business success (which are great, i'm not disputing that) but PBD does not seem to have that more expansive view of success and happiness that you alluded to. I think it would have been great if GSP had mentioned and explained how good health is actually an equally or more worthy hunt compared with that of a business or enterprise hunt. Loved the interview though just like you; Pat is a master.
GSP is the most humble and wise beyond his years! Admiration and deep respect!
Or a takedown
GSP simply does not want to take part in the rat race anymore. PBD doesn’t get that because his view of success is purely centered around money, status, and fame.
Pretty wild how a small interaction tells us so much about these two men. GSP is thinking beyond the material life while PBD is so encompassed in the material world.
Gsp has had it all money women success health etc
Exactly 💯
Thats why PBD dresses like a Designer Bi**h in his freetime
I absolutely love hearing anything that GSP says he is such an honest, intelligent,and beautiful human being. Also I was a victim to being bullied at a young age I could relate to this feeling and striving to be more. He should seek out Jordan Peterson for help find this person mentally inside and enjoy the most important currency to its fullest, time.
The last thing he should do is seek out Jordan Peterson😅
Georges is the best to ever set foot inside the Octagon! And has been a tremendous ambassador for the sport. Mad respect for GSP 👏👏

@@chaborz4851 zzz
Hw is the reason why I started watching UFC him and Chuck Liddle made the UFC what it is today.
@@ricardoignacio916 PED poppers dont get to be on the list. They can make their own. TJ can join them.
Those who know about MMA know that Conor is not a serious threat to GSP at all. Against Khabib however, it's honestly 50-50. Sure GSP is the goat, has amazing wrestling, double champ, but this is Khabib we're talking about. he's a different animal. It could go either way between GSP vs Khabib imo
50-50 maybe now because GSP is not in his prime anymore but had they fought when he was on top GSP runs through him. GSP has been so successful in the cage because he is disciplined and very analytical when it comes to opponents.
GSP in his prime would be too much for khabib
@@foxtrotthree569 agreed
Khabib dodged a lot of people
@@gerryavalos7734 khabib was lucky to fight the ghost of Conor McGregor and a few good but not great fighters. GSP and Charles are both too much for khabib IMO
George is so calculated how he prepares for an opponent. You can see how his strategy changes vastly depending on the opponent. That's what makes him so good.
In his defense, a lotta people are beating Conor these days
Not a great accomplishment anymore
True
Mcgregor still the second best of all time
DE-FEET!
@@nicholaswoods4055
Connor isn't even top 5 GOATs
True but he also said he believes he can beat Khabib and that's a completely different beast.
Such a wise and strong person. Gsp is admirable.
I feel PBD doesn’t kind of understand GSP current mentality. PBD is looking to advance in business , create bigger projects, and to have this higher status. But GSP is looking now to simply enjoy life and work on himself more deeply, because he’s already fulfilled the destiny of building wealth and greatness.
Disappointed with the click bait bullshit. All George said was what any fighter would say but you didn't include context. Remember that the next time you or your editors whine about context or facts...
Damn you have got to give GSP so much respect about his come up! The dudes the real deal 🙏🏼
"I'm better, but I'm still lacking things."
Damn I wish I could have used that everytime someone thought I was bragging when I talk about changes I made.
GSP has already provided an example for the next generation that has endured. And that's definitely not about technique but more so that an MMA athlete can have class, be measured and thoughtful, and above all professional throughout their career. In some ways he changed the game as much as Royce did, took it to another level.
I know Patrick wants GSP to have a "hunt" a grind but you have to realize how HARD it is to become a champion in a fighting sport and also stay there for years and retire on top. Its one of the most difficult thing to achieve in the world physically and mentally. Thats why not alot of long reign champ on the ufc. GSP just want to work on himself and enjoy life right now he did the grind thing for 5 lives of a "normal" everyday person.
He’s such a gentleman so humble just like khabib
what a guy !! amazing soul !! that advice on fasting and life was spot on
Man GSP put me on some game he’s a very smart man 😎 now I might try more fasting I get tired of thinking and overthinking I believe certain things as fasting will get your mind of petty stuff thanks GSP 👍🏽
for those who don't know when gsp was 39 he was asking for a fight with khabib khabib declined he has over double the amount of UFC fights 28 he has 13 titles compared to khabibs 4 he is a two division champion gsp is the goat imo
Ok
Kiddo khabib s team waited for years to get a confirmation from GSP to fight, but then when Khabib s father passed away it was a done deal for khabib to do anything with UFC all together .
@@m.r.a7992 GSP did want to fight Khabib, but only under 1 fight contract. Which UFC declined.
@@art-tb3um not khabib s fault 😉
@@m.r.a7992 When GSP said let me fight Khabib Dana White said nope. I ain't letting you beat my undefeated cash cow! Also it was before Khabib's father passed. Khabib's team was never waiting or asking for GSP. Not sure why you're talking about. 🤔 Not to mention that Khabib walks around the same height and 10 - 15lbs heavier than George. So it ain't a bigger man beating a smaller man.
I love the words GSP says. He is so good to listen to
A GSP podcast will be awesome. Him sharing his knowledge and perspective is enough
I remembered whenever 🐐SP was in the octagon, that whoever the opponent was didn't stand a chance. 🐐SP is actually a beast in human form.
Matt Serra khtfo and Johnny Hendricks should have won that fight. Carlos condit fight was close. He couldn't finish Diaz either..just saying
No look back at Johnny Hendricks he lost the fight unfortunately for you
Matt Serra 18-7
Johny Hendricks 26-8
Nick Diaz 38-10
All three of those fighters lose 1 out of 3.5 fights on average.....
🐐SP 26-2
GSP loses 1 out of 14
Khabib 29-0
Never lost a round. That's a GOAT.
@@mycologybytycology I'm a big time Khabib fan. He's the Lightweight GOAT. GSP though....son.....GSP is the UFC GOAT. The body of work that he has done is unmatched. Two belts, multiple defenses, retired on top, both losses vindicated in with epic come backs. well balanced stand up, wrestling, grappling, way more tougher opponents considering the day. Even Khabib knows this and respects GSP because of it.
No one can really chat shit to GSP. He’s the 🐐
Jon Jones

People don’t understand how hard it is to train at that level it’s tiring and doing it for so long you just want to rest after years of beating the body.
What a lame excuse. Pathetic.
GSP vs Khabib will always be the one that got away... but after 6 years of watching Conor get exposed seeing GSP balling him up wouldn't even be interesting
Out of any what if fight, that's the one I wanna see the most.
and Khabib. Khabib would get f'ed up if he fought GSP. GSP would have kept the fight standing and Khabib would have gotten f'ed up. Khabib worst matchup would be colby gsp and usman.
Conor wasn't even in his prime after that 2 years of retirement, he just wasn't the same anymore
@@triplecheesemac any decent wrestler would expose khabib
@@aymenesabry8421 Trujillo didn't expose Khabib. And Oliveira lost to Islam, who is a weaker fighter than Khabib, and still can't win in sparring.
I wonder all the time what it means to be “appy.” I love his personality, his ability to communicate with his specific personality and have so called “language limitations” …but I say that in a sense that what others may think his ability to enunciate may not meet our standards, I feel this makes me listen more profoundly and more acutely.
All of you are doing amazing work!
To be real a quick trip to the Ghetto or to the backwoods in the United States and you will see GSP doesnt talk all that bad of English compared to them.
@@cmo5807lol😅...fo' sho'
gsp is in to something greater than himself being a good person and helping people thats greater than doing things for me myself and i
GSP’s drive is to become the best version of himself a well rounded man full of wisdom and maturity to adopt whatever life challenges may bring to him.
He is DONE fighting, he is living beyond that now.
I don’t see Conor beating GSP. However I think GSP and Khabib both at their primes at 170 I would think the match is 50/50. Gsp has the edge in striking , and his ground game is also very good. Two things though that would be in GSP’s favor is the fact that GSP is known to counter and out wrestle wrestlers and he has more experience at 170. That being said I would give the edge to khabib in grappling and his striking is fairly good considering he held his own against Conor on the feet. It would be a insanely competitive match.
GSP beats him GSP won't be scared of khabib taking him down and just fight him.
@@trishennaidoo1309 GSP's cardio is trash and so is his KO power and striking, Khabib subs him in a heart beat.
I think A GSP/Khabib fight would look allot more like the Izzy/Silva fight if anything.. especially now where they're both retired.. would be nothing more than a payday for George & khabib would have the 30-0 instead of 29..

Been watching UFC for a long time, he is hands down my all time favorite fighter. Love him so much. GSP THE GOAT!
His answer is the same as mine would be. People think achievements make a person but i think being happy with yourself means more than personal attributes.
The best ambassador for mixed martial arts that there ever will be.
Gsp deserves the title of goat
It would be amazing if he came back had three fights Khabib Conor and usman just to prove he’s still got it
As a gsp fan he'd break conor.. I don't see him beating khabib or usman At this age.. He'd still be able to out wreslte conor but I think he's just a bit to old to fight usman and khabib who are still well in their prime
@@zubairallawi1206 He’d smoke Juiceman and Chicken khabib even at his current age 😂
PBD is looking forward to meeting his 50 yr-old self because he’s not had disaster or ill health descend upon him without reason. Being able to chase for something and expect success is a blessing and up to higher powers.
Khabib is the best and talking about defeating him is far away dream
GSP v Khabib would have been competitive and ultimately a win for GSP. He absolutely murks Connor. Now considering his former weight class I think Usman is maybe at his peak. Anything prior he gets bested.
The real fight we all wanted to see was prime GSP v prime Anderson Silva
GSP vs Silva was one of those that got away.
I think GSP would hold Silva down most of the fight. GSP vs Khabib is the most interesting fight ever.
@@chadzard4 That’s what Sonnen did and got caught. I think GSP might have been more of a BJJ threat though.
Seeing some of the looks from the guys Khabib was able to just hold down… they’re usually able to get up by a certain point but getting dragged back down. Khabib was breaking morale in there and nobody really escaped a take down unless he chose to do some stand up.
No Khabib would win .. GSP can take you down but not like Khabib who doesn't let you get away ! If you see his fight with Bispin he took him down a lot of times but nothing instead got hit in his head and bleed !
Khabib had no hands and Conor has no ground. GSP has it all
He'd either k.o. Khabib or outpoint him and he'd either submit or tko Conor with ground and pound. I don't even see the fights being close.
Khabib has no hands yet he beat the best strikers both on the ground and stand up game
@@Ahmed-tu9dt be beat them with his wrestling not his striking
@@PRAISEdaLloyd fucking casual. He stood with conor and justin
Khabib dropped multiple fighters in the UFC with his hands. He was a 2x World COMBAT Sambo champion
People also got to understand that a guy like GSP has been there and done that so when he’s talking about the motivation I completely understand what he means. He doesn’t have anything left to prove he’s already been tested he’s already proven on self he doesn’t owe anyone anything. A lot of people who don’t fight or who have never been tested have a real problem understanding that because they’ve never been through it.
With that said though I do understand what the interviewer is asking him it’s a very hard question to answer but also a very important one!
Big thanks for you gsp for the inspiration.🔥
"If i see further than other men, it's because I stand on the shoulders of giants." Isaac Newton (not Einstein)
journalist: And for 1 billion $ would you fight Khabib?
GSP: .....1 billion$.... maybe
journalist: So you're telling me there is a chance this fight will happen in the futur.
GSP: Ah you intaxikated?😂
A fighter is never going to say he doesn’t think he’ll win. It’s just the mindset required to be a fighter.
This back and forth between them shows a startling difference in mindset.
PBD is thinking very materialistically, which is expected given all his business background. Do this business, start a podcast, etc. to grow wealth and brand and as a by product help people along the way. He seems unable to comprehend what George’s mindset.
GSP doesn’t view that as a means to achieve his personal goals. He wants to just give back and help others. He doesn’t need to build up some mega-business.
I like his mindset; almost every form of media we consume is promoting materialism as the means to happiness. Need more GSPs.
In short George next quest it to be a motivational coach.
He'd beat Conner for sure, I'm not as sure about Khabib, though GSP would have a decided size advantage.
Gsp and khabib are very similar in size if you've seen them in photos together
@@gbrown3783 if so why didn’t khabib fight in gsp weigh class ? Weight bully ?
@@briantime9880 a ton of fighters cut as much weight as possible. At the end of the day if you can make weight you are good to go. Very few fighters walk around within 15-18 pounds of their fighting weight like GSP did. Even the lighter weight classes typically cut more weight than that.
@@briantime9880 when gsp arrived there wasn't so much weight cut like nowadays. If gsp arrived today in the ufc he would certainly fight at 155 since he walks around 185.
@@briantime9880 Because Dana was against it. Both Khabib and GSP were down, but Dana didn't agree to just one fight for GSP.
I have always liked GSP, good character excellent martial artist he is a smart fighter a strategist and is knowledgeable about many things.
Patrick is still playing Checkers while Georges is a 10 time grand master in chess already
This guy doesn't have a clue... George did everything for the sport! A role model that has excellent morales, and is very humble. His legacy too be a gentleman in the cage and out the cage. A real Champion! Personal favorite fighter of all time! Mastered the fight game, and now he is moving forward with his journey! The hunt now is for him too find serenity, and happiness! That doesn't include fighting. Please show that man some respect he has hard earned!
People like Patrick are only for chasing $$$.. That's why he kept asking the question, he doesn't understand that GSP is striving for happiness... Business men are hollow.
Age would have no bearing on the outcome of a GSP fight against anyone today. People thinking magically at the age of 40 that he's lost all his abilities and he'd as well be 90 are deluded.
His ability to perform you may live inside your own butt
Yeah hed still be competitive and win fights against most guys hed be matched with but he wouldn't be what he was. Speed, reaction time and explosiveness go as you age. Ask every fighter who was in the sport that long.
Theres a reason you only get old ass champions in shallow weight classes 90% of the time.
Never mind that injuries are more frequent, harder to rehab and weight cutting becomes far more difficult. Meaning the quality of fight camps also decline.
Gsp is good to the point where he could make up for those things quite well, but to act like aging and not competing frequently wouldnt have a massive negative affect on his ability to perform may mean you're living inside your bum bum.
He himself said, that his best days might have been behind him. And he would be risking his health, which is just a dumb thing to do, if you can avoid it.
GSP seems to be a class act... Very genuine, etc.
Gsp would be a great educator to teach to all those agressive kids how to be happy and find their place in this world.

@@bighands69 whatever you smoke, pass it on
GSP is a epitome of a great fighter and others should aspire to be. It baffles me how Conor has so many fans being such a dirtbag
He's right about fasting it's amazing.
I so wish we could see GSP take those guys while he's confident and fresh. He's an athlete through and through.
But I certainly understand why he doesn't want to put himself through all that. And I like that GSP is truly in a retirement mode.
Yes, he's young and it doesn't sound like he has any specific channel in which he will give back in sharing his knowledge.
But he's an actor, he has his social media and speaks out on a regular; he's doing exactly what he wants, the way he wants.
It may not be the answer one might expect to hear but you can hear his heart, he has nothing to hunt or chase. He is in pursuit of nothing.
He is simply being and living his best life. And that is a great, fulfilling place to be all by itself for anyone.
He's not part of the rat race. He doesn't need that to be fulfilled. GSP is really speaking from a great place that in this day and age is quite valuable to learn.

That's the fight to make. GSP vs Khabib
Even now khabib would get destroyed
Nah man weight class exist for a reason
No it’s not both guys are done give it a rest
@@KingSuperior stop spamming on every video lncel. -de ad channeI trying to fit in smh
@@beaualIoevv I just know your life is miserable and social media is the only place you can feel like somebody
his answer is the same as Khabib's to those questions about retirement, but Patrick as a businessman always at a new plan of business and so on, not shameon anybody, both are great guys, GSP is juust a relaxed guy more prone now to introspection and self improvement, not to bagging heads with business and make empires, his emperie is in the soul.
PBD and GSP together is a powerful duo
He would kill Conor and in his prime he would be a solid favorite over khabib. Gsp was a big welterweight and briefly won the middleweight
Certainly possible. Statistically speaking, GSP is the greatest wrestler in UFC history (when judging by takedowns, takedown defense and control time) and he also happened to have word class striking while being a legit BJJ blackbelt. I believe he'd give Khabib problems. And Conor? Pfft. It would be like the Dan Hardy fight all over again.
Khabib never ever fought at 170...he would be taken out by at least the top 3 welterweight s.
He knew that. Conor had the balls to go between divisions. And it seems like he's coming back at 170. It sure looks like his career is over...but let's see
@@LIIIIIFE GSP won the middleweight belt. He’s no easy task for a guy who never stepped above 155.
@@seanmatthewking Not so simple. Khabib was fighting at welterweight before ufc and man has like 250 sambo matches where he won majority of.
@@seanmatthewking gsp never moved up he had one fight in middle weight vs a washed up bisping who retired straight after. Welterweight was his weight class just like khabibs lightweight
Gsp could have been the smallest Light heavyweight champ let’s just say that
I couldn’t disagree more. Bones would have been to much for him. 185 too 205 is a huge jump in size of fighter. Maybe be the hardest hypothetical double champ possible
Lol stfu… Jones would’ve made him tap to strikes again
@@sethspigelmeyer6414 def not beating jon lol
@@sethspigelmeyer6414 I disagree with you because we had those types of fights in the past. We are breeding a weak culture in fighting by constantly limiting fighters to weight classes. If that’s the case you should factor in height since it’s more of an important factor in fighting than weight. If Jon Jones was 6’1 with a normal reach he would be an average fighter. the man has the longest reach in the ufc and is the height of heavyweights fighting old worn out middleweights since most of the fighters he faced have gone down to or up from middleweight. His talent is in his physical attributes not mental capacity and that’s where GSP shines and he would give Jone a hard fight if he was in his prime. Jones will lose in heavyweight badly especially since he can’t even finish Reyes. Jiri also is the new guy in town that will make sure Jones will never go back down to Light heavy Weight. Jones is done for honestly the man won’t even beat arvloski.
@@xnoybis9967 Bones will smoke 95% of the roster at heavyweight and be competitive with the rest. And as a Candian I love GSP but Jones is so much bigger and would beat GSP badly.
They dont understand the mindset of a fighter. A fighter needs the belief they will always win.
What I love about GSP and Khabib is, they left on their own terms…Connor and Anderson Silva are guys that are great examples of not leaving at the correct time…Always wanting one more…
Silva was undefeated for like four years at one point…Never left and got humbled. Never was the Champ he was once he lost. Connor is the same.
Imagine if they had left on top? Coulda been announcers or coaches or whatever…Now they’re just dried up has beens…
I like how he mentions fasting ,He made me proud to be muslim - abstain , to refrain, to reflect🐺🐺😎💯💯
Religion is like g...tal parts. Everyone has one, but mature people don't need to show it around.
@@sbarmiueenl weird but okay…
People who says khabib is a tough because he too is also big , khabib is only big and heavy when he’s not not fight shape . GSP fight shape on fight day is 190lb . Khabib around 170lb on fight day
one of the only guys out there who says stuff like this and it is the truth
Gsp is never outGrappling the guy who spent his whole life grappling and i love gsp
Conor easily. But Khabib no way. Sorry gsp
Casual😂🤡
Essentially what he’s trying to ask is this:
Are you in the hunt for material garbage 🗑 that won’t fulfill you in the long run?
PBD, happiness comes from within, not from the material trash that you want to know if GSP is after…
SO true. its very clear what GSP is saying here, he wants to discover himself and the powers of his mind. Interviwers basically repeated the same questions... expecting a materialistic response, or superficial achievment.
@@brucejohnson5786 man you hit it right on the button. GSP is light years beyond that mess his trying box him into.
I rather cry in a ferrari than be happy in a bus u dimwit
he was a beast, his wrestling and his striking against koscheck, fukn hell
What a person !
Far too physically big for McGregor absolutely 100% and pretty much same applies for Khabib also.
Not only that but a better striker, same cardio Khabib is a better wrestler but GSP is better at avoiding takedowns. I also believe GSP (in his prime) was stronger than Khabib. I see GSP win by KO or decision especially since GSP insanely accurate jab would keep Khabib at a distance.
Khabib a hard fight man but George will give him a tough going with his wrestling and athletic nature but is see khabib winning to be honest khabib beats everyone in 170 expect from khamzat ahaah
He is about the same size as Mcgregor, GSP far more well rounded.
@@tumadrechupapinga6252
George as the best MMA wrestler in the history of the sport. He could take down guys that were fasters and stronger than Khabib.
@@ceceroxy2227 well rounded is good but his wrestling is god damn good that khabib kills him
I agree with Conor but khabib would grapple the shit out of him honestly saying as a GSP fan
They keep asking questions like he is supposed to be grinding another carreer, dude is just happy because he’s free and does what he loves everyday not complicated really
Patrick Bet David is the man.
Gsp vs Jake Shields when GSP won would be the same as GSP vs Khabib. Shields was a bigger better pure grappler than Khabib
Khabib is too small to dominate GSP and he knows it
Lol, no. Top 10 welterweights 10 years ago would have been top 10 lightweights today, but fighters become better cutting weight throughout the years and better with time. The top 5 lightweights today beats the top 5 welterweights 10 years ago...
@@alcottdevalte7440 you're trolling.
@@brodelnaz Do some research. Khabib fought at welterweight 10 years ago 11 times and became better cutting weight throughout the years. He actually walks around heavier than GSP...
@@alcottdevalte7440 because hes shorter and fatter than gsp. What you're saying is irrelevant
@@brodelnaz He has heavier bone structure. Doesn't look much different;

Ive never seen Khabib get in trouble i think he is invincible in the octagon.
That is said about every fighter until it happens. Khabib quit before it happened to him.
He barely beat Gleason Tebeau, He won a split decision I believe. Micheal Johnson hurt him early, Dustin Poirer did a little bit, but its true, he was rarely in trouble.
Khabib seems invincible
@@AUZlE guys it’s funny how you despise family values. Khabins father died and he promised mother never fight
@@ceceroxy2227 no Khabib didn't lose a single round in UFC except one round of Conor. It was a unanimous win with Tibau for all 3 rounds because Khabib was in control on all 3 rounds, not striking. People forget control and frame is everything in MMA and in life. It doesn't matter how many smacks you get but if you're the master and the punch thrower is the slave, you win by default because you control the gear of the game!
I love George and I understand what he is saying about if he sas motivated "he could". Problem remains, if you take yourself out of contention. Will not fight for any amount of money. You lose the "right" to proclaim yourself. You enter the land of fantasy. Regardless of resume, that's the past and you say no future.
Hahahaha they don't understand there obssesed with the grind GSP you are the man !!!
Gsp opponents combined record is 494-71
Khabibs is 295-114
Not only did GSP face better competition, he did it in the division above.
GSP has the tools and size to beat Khabib
He’s not in his prime and Khabib is. So today it’s not fair. Now they respect each other way too much. Remember they are each other favorites.
I’m just happy we all got to have these two amazing fighters. Both are my favorites.
@@ryanb8736 GSP would still beat Khabib even today
If gsp comes down to 155, even though I consider him goat, he loses to Khabib imo. Styles make fights and its a bad match up for him.
fasting and cold baths would keep your mind busy so george is doing it right and healthy. he is still achieving something with simple things like when fasting you can look forward to eating
We Muslim also fast💥
He is a living legend and that enough to be honest! I think GSP would be a great trainer.
