Georges St-Pierre auctions UFC belt for $55,000, ends up in national history museum

Georges St-Pierre has parted with one of his many UFC championship belts, but not without cashing a hefty check. The Canadian Museum of History revealed on Thursday they had acquired St-Pierre’s title strap from UFC 94: St-Pierre vs. Penn 2.

Thursday’s unveiling coincides with the ten-year anniversary of the fight GSP won by fourth round TKO via doctor stoppage. The belt was purchased in an auction along with a pair of shorts and autographed fight gloves. The package was purchased for $55,527, according to Global News.

The consignor, who is described as “one of St-Pierre’s first sponsors” and the owner of a gym GSP trained at before becoming champion, delivered the belt to the museum.
