Georges St Pierre gave advice to Kamar Usman

Georges St Pierre, in an interview with Adin Ross, revealed what advice he gave to Kamar Usman.

– Kamaru is already well into his 30s. I told him that I was the same age at a similar point in my career. So I asked him if he still intended to fight. He replied: “Yes I think I will try to fight for the title again.”

The Canadian relayed exactly what he told the approaching Usman.

– I said: “Kamaru, if you want I will give you one piece of advice. Listen do what you need to do, get it out of your system. But it’s imperative to leave while being at the top.” For an athlete, this is such an icing on the cake both in terms of health and from a business standpoint. When you end your career as a champion then there are new options to make money. When you lose two or three fights and retire, it’s a fact, you’ve earned a little more for those fights, but your health declines and those bad sports results block some opportunities for growth and cooperation with companies.

The 44-year-old has no plans to return to competing however, he follows all major events of the UFC organization with great interest.
