Why don’t you shut up and listen up and I’m going to tell you what’s going to happen in this next week. When I get to the Soprano’s state, when I step off that plane in New Jersey, there’s a new family in town, the Sonnen family, and I’m the new Don.

BJPENN.COM News - April 24, 2013

“Well, obviously it draws me back in the win column. It eradicates my last loss. You’re only as good as your last fight and my last fight was a loss. And I don’t take that too well. I want to win fights. I’m a natural competitor. A win over Alan Belcher puts me back in the win column. As I say, I get redemption for my last fight. It’s a win over a Top 10 opponent.

GSP Says Next Fight Undecided, Waiting On Outcome Of Future Bouts

BJPENN.COM News - April 24, 2013

“[Dana White and I] haven’t spoken. I probably need to know the outcome of the next couple fights. We’re going to talk later on. If I’m going up to 185, I will not be able to come back down after. At 170, I don’t think I have the luxury of choosing my opponent, and I will fight whoever the UFC tells me to fight. I haven’t fought everybody at 170. I’ve been out for a long time and my division has changed. Now Johny Hendricks is a new guy right now, and he brings a very big threat to me.” It was just last week that UFC President Dana White told the media he would be talking to GSP about his next fight. In fact, Dana’s exact quote at the UFC on FOX 7 Pre-fight press conference was, “I am literally going to call Georges St. Pierre today and see what he wants to do.”
