GSP advises fighters to retire before the game beats them, says fighting was what he did, not who he is

Georges St-Pierre shared his philosophy on fighter retirement, stating that fighters leave the sport too late and should beat the game rather than let it beat them. GSP emphasized the importance of separating one's fighting persona from personal identity, comparing it to Batman and Bruce Wayne. He stressed that fighting was what he did for a living, not his core identity. Dana White commented that he doesn't want to strip Jamahal Hill of a title shot or introduce an interim belt, stating everything will be decided after a personal meeting. Meanwhile, Sean Strickland traveled to a location near Khamzat Chimaev's gym and publicly shared his whereabouts, seemingly challenging Chimaev's previous statements. Chimaev responded to various wrestling challengers by offering $200,000 to any Olympic champion who can survive sparring with him.
