St-Pierre announced his retirement from MMA last year, punctuating a fantastic career as one of the best fighters to ever step into the cage. His last bout in the UFC was a successful title challenge to former middleweight champ Michael Bisping at UFC 217, where the Canadian won via third round submission. He left the UFC with a 13 fight winning streak behhind him, and a legacy of greatness that has been largely unmatched in the welterweight division.
“You don’t see too many athletes who go out on top,” White said. “GSP has done that, done it very well. He’s got the money, he doesn’t need the money. He’s working for us now in a different capacity, and I’d love to see him go out on top.”
