...why is this a thread? I posted the entire presser on the fight card thread, not to mention this is we already knew regardless of video. I thought this was gonna be a video of GSP actually flipping out or some like that

Carlos Condit vs. Josh Koscheck in the works for UFC 143 in Las Vegas

Holy , that's going to be epic. I hope Condit pops that little gots head right off his body.
well looks like GSP knee wasn't fully healed:
danawhite Dana White
GSP blown acl will be out for 10 mos. Now Condit vs Diaz for the interim welterweight le on Feb 4th in Las Vegas!!
Canadian fighter Georges St-Pierre will be out of action for almost a year after suffering a serious knee injury.
UFC president Dana White issued a tweet Wednesday that said St-Pierre will not fight Nick Diaz at UFC 143 on Super Bowl weekend.
"GSP blown acl will be out for 10 mos. Now Condit vs Diaz for the interim welterweight le on Feb 4th in Las Vegas!!" White wrote.
The news came about six weeks after St-Pierre suffered a strained knee ligament while training in his hometown of Montreal.
The injury forced him out of a UFC 137 le fight with Carlos (Natural Born Killer) Condit.
St-Pierre (22-2) has battled knee injuries before.
After beating Matt Hughes for the championship at UFC 65 in November 2006, he lost the le to Matt Serra at UFC 69 in April 2007 in a fight that was delayed two months due to a GSP knee issue.
St-Pierre won it back from Serra at UFC 83 in April 2008. The Canadian has defended the welterweight championship six times since.
St-Pierre also tore his abductor muscle in three places in a victory over Thiago Alves at UFC 100 in July 2009.
The UFC has been hit hard by injuries over the last year, reflecting a hard-nosed sport where the training can be tougher than the fights themselves.
Lightweight champion Frank Edgar's recent le defence against Gray Maynard was delayed when both fighters were injured in the leadup. Former heavyweight champ Cain Velasquez missed several months after shoulder surgery.
Light-heavyweight champion Jon (Bones) Jones, former light-heavyweight le-holder Rashad Evans and former heavyweight champ Brock Lesnar (diverticulitis) have also been sidelined for varying amounts of time.
Jones is scheduled to fight Lyota (The Dragon) Machida in the main event of UFC 140 this Saturday at Air Canada Centre in Toronto.
I like how Cesar Gracie immediately says that GSP should be stripped of the le because he can't fight. That in' prick is like the dojo master from Cobra Kai.
There's nothing wrong with interim les, and I am glad to see a good fight nonetheless.
Christ GSP can't stay healthy anymore. 10 months out of action.. This could be a career changer for him. That is one of a long time on the shelf..

Georges St-Pierre Undergoes Surgery to Repair Injured Knee
http://www.mmafighting.com/2011/12/1...lshare_twitterIn a recent teleconference, St-Pierre's personal orthopedist Dr. Sebastien Simard said that the surgery would require a total reconstruction of St-Pierre's anterior cruciate ligament along with repairing damage in his meniscus.
Estimates for his return have ranged from between 6-10 months, depending on how he responds to physical rehabilitation.
I just wonder what kind of reconstruction they are gonna do?
Are they gonna to cut his own muscles, or take another ligament or takes from a dead or take from an animal![]()
Roy Nelson vs. Fabricio Werdum slotted for UFC 143
