Three-time Canadian athlete of the year and one of the most accomplished fighters of all-time, St-Pierre’s methodical and innovative approach to combat sports set him apart from the competition. He defended his welterweight belt a record nine times, holding the belt for over 2,200 days. He is one of a handful of fighters in UFC history to hold titles in two divisions. You don’t need to be a fan of Georges St-Pierre to respect his accomplishments inside the ring or his mental toughness. The devotion to routine, staying present in the midst of chaos, and a relentless work ethic are the same things all athletes and gymgoers need right now.
