A Bigger And Ripped Shirtless GSP Emerges One Month From Moving Up And Debuting At Middleweight

Former UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre (GSP) retired from competition after defending his world title against Johny Hendricks at UFC 167.

It’s been four years since the once dominant king of the UFC stepped foot inside the Octagon, and now he’s doing so in a dangerous move up in weight to face the middleweight world champion in Michael Bisping.

If GSP is victorious he’ll find himself in very rare company, having secured a second division UFC world title, a rare accomplishment in Mixed Martial Arts.

To do so, he knows he has to put on some size in order to compete with the former light-heavyweight contender turned middleweight champ in Michael Bisping.

Taking to his instagram, and in full on promo-model mode, a shirtless GSP has emerged, and he looks like he’s taking to the additional weight very well.
