Georges St-Pierre advises fighters to retire early and separate identity from sport

Georges St-Pierre shared his philosophy on career management and retirement, emphasizing that fighters retire too late and should "beat the game" rather than let it beat them. He rejected the notion of "passing the torch," insisting fighters should take it with them. St-Pierre stressed the importance of separating one's fighting persona from personal identity, comparing it to Batman and Bruce Wayne. He explained that fighting was what he did, not who he is, and that understanding this distinction is crucial for fighters. The comments reflect his approach to maintaining a healthy relationship with the sport after retirement.
