Georges St-Pierre says fighters retire too late, should beat the game

Georges St-Pierre has shared his philosophy on retirement, stating that fighters often leave the sport too late. He believes athletes should "beat the game" rather than let the game beat them, and rejects the notion of "passing the torch," saying fighters should take it with them. St-Pierre emphasized that fighting was what he did, not who he is, comparing the distinction to Batman and Bruce Wayne. His comments reflect his strategic approach to career longevity and identity outside the cage. The remarks were part of a broader discussion on how fighters should manage their exits from competition.
