Justin Gaethje recalled that once during training he managed to take down the then UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre.

“At that time I was studying in college, doing wrestling. One day my coaches invited UFC fighters to a wrestling practice with me. That’s when Georges St-Pierre came, whom I managed to take down. I made a takedown when I was probably 18, and he was the champion then,” - Gaethje’s words are quoted by the Sportskeeda portal.
