GSP explained why doesn’t want to commit three months of training to fight against Usman, GSP also stated that he does not need the money.
“If I come back to fight Usman, I would literally have to leave the county, I would have to bring my coaches somewhere, find a base camp, fly in training partners to get ready for Usman. But leaving my home, I don’t want to do it. I’m healthy, I’m wealthy”
Mike Tyson disagrees with Ali Abdelaziz
But, he still believes that a fight between Kamaru Usman vs Georges St- Pierre would be a great fight in UFC. Mike also stated that GSP has been a natural Welterweight and his groundwork is commendable.

“We gotta do this fight. George is hard to hit” said Mike
There is a possibility that we might see Usman and GSP throwing punches in the octagon. The stakes for that match would be very high. GSP has been absent since 2017 and Usman is undefeated and on a winning streak.
