George St. Pierre: UFC Champion

That’s right folks! George St. Pierre, from Montreal, has won the UFC Welterweight Champion belt tonight against all american Matt Hughes.

Why does this matter so much to me? Because Matt Hughes said plenty of nasty things about Canadians, and that the entire fight itself had somewhat of a USA vs. Canada slant. During the whole ordeal, there were moments when you could hear the crowd chant “USA USA USA”. Secondly, George St. Pierre is a wickedly exciting and athletic fighter. Third, he’s such a polite and friendly guy compared to his opponent. Watching him fight is beautiful.

He seems to be the complete package. A monster in the stand up game, and really strong on the ground too. I hope he stays to defend the title for many more fights to come.
