The legendary Canadian MMA fighter, former UFC champion in two divisions Georges St-Pierre explained why former welterweight champion Kamaru Usman should hang up his gloves.

“I spoke to Kamaru Usman. He is almost 40 years old now, and I asked him, 'Will you fight again?' He said, 'I think I'll have one more fight.' And I told him, 'Do what you have to do, but leave on top.'

It's better not only for your health but also for business. When you leave as a champion... Yes, of course, you want to take risks: 'I can have one more fight and another one...' That's what your ego says. I've been through this. But in reality, you have many ways to present yourself because your stakes are high,” the Canadian said in an interview with the YouTube channel Adin Live.
