He always does.....he is 100 percent class.
Sucks that he showed respect to such a dick like Nick.
Take a wild guess what Nick would have said if he won.
Nick is a dick......again with his "I want to retire shit".....
Just fuck off and go back to Stockton you fucking dick.
The idea that Georges St-Pierre makes $5 million per fight comes from a 2011 Canadian newspaper interview where GSP himself stated: "For me, a fight is (worth) $4 to $5 million, and in the city where the UFC holds its events, there are economic benefits of between $15 to $20 million. It's huge!" So does Georges St-Pierre really make that much money from a single fight? Unfortunately the answer is no. In fact, as we are about to show, it's almost mathematically impossible.
Many readers of our original list of the richest MMA fighters falsely assumed that we had forgotten to take into account GSP's Pay Per View bonuses when we stated that he has earned a total of $3.1 million from his UFC matches. The truth is, even with a generous PPV cut, St-Pierre is not making nearly as much money as you would think. His claims of $4-5 million per fight are big exaggerations. For example let's take a look at UFC 154. When GSP fought in UFC 154, he earned a $200,000 appearance fee and $270,000 from win bonuses = $470,000 before PPV. There were 700,000 Pay Per View orders for UFC 154 which at $55 a pop = $38.5 million gross revenues. Of that $38.5 million 60% goes to distributors like Comcast, Time Warner and DirecTV right off the bat, leaving the UFC with $15.4 million before any costs like advertising, insurance, fighter salaries, vendors, security etc. Conservatively assuming that these costs eat up another 60%, the UFC is left with $6.16 million in profits. If Georges St-Pierre was really making $5 million per fight, that would mean he is entitled to 81% of the UFC's money. Do you really think Dana White would give split his money 80/20 with a fighter? More accurate estimates put a fighter of GSP's clout at 10-15% of net revenues (after costs). That would mean on a night like UFC 154, GSP earned a bonus somewhere in the range of $600,000 ? $925,000. Added to his $470,000 base salary and he's earning roughly $1.5 million off UFC 154 before taxes. For a wealthy person like GSP who is in the highest tax bracket and needs to pay managers, lawyers, agents, trainers etc? that $1.5 million quickly drops to $750,000 when it's all said and done. Still a really good payday for one night's work, but nothing near the $5 million he claims.

yeah need to get some sleep before maria and caro.
even wozniackis moonballs better than gps lol
That is going to be one hell of a fight. GSP might lose that one, that is one scary fight if you are a GSP fan.
Should be no fave in that fight.......that fight can go either way. Will be toughest fight of GSP career that is for sure.
I think GSP might lose that fight.
Yep......very very interesting fight.
If anybody has a chance of beating GSP it is Hendricks.
Yes....but the answer was "net worth".
Nobody except GSP and Zuffa know what GSP makes per fight. And nobody except GSP knows exactly how much he makes.
But it is quite a bit of coin.
