Georges St-Pierre Will Only End UFC Retirement for Fight Against Khabib

Georges St-Pierre officially retired from mixed martial arts in February 2019, but the UFC Hall of Famer isn't closing the door on a comeback if he gets offered the right fight.

Speaking to ESPN's Marc Raimondi, St-Pierre said the only challenger he would end his retirement for is UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov:

"If I ever come back, I'm not coming back for many fights. If I come back, it would be for one fight. And I need to take, for me, the biggest fish. And the one—for me, I believe—the top guy right now, the name is Khabib.
