View Full Version : Exclusive Serra on GSP: ‘Hit the road Frenchy’

Last week we posted an audio clip from an interview (http://ufcmania.com/2007/05/12/audio-gsp-buys-into-his-own-hype/) featuring former UFC welterweight champion Georges “Rush” St. Pierre as he weighed in on his upset loss to Matt “The Terror” Serra at UFC 69 last month. Usually the picture of class, GSP was uncharacteristically shallow in explaining his defeat. Not only did he claim to have still been injured, he also revealed that he trained for a paltry two weeks and was uncomfortable with his training camp.

The pièce de résistance however, was St. Pierre’s claim that had the fight been against Matt Hughes, he would have pulled out because he was unprepared.So it’s okay to fight Serra but not Hughes? You don’t have to be a Windtalker to decipher his real message, which I interpret as “A bad GSP is still better than a good Serra.”Not surprisingly, current UFC welterweight champion Matt Serra was not amused. I caught up with Matt earlier this morning to get his feedback on the GSP interview.





“Georges St. Pierre is a pathetic liar. He stood up after the fight like a man and admitted he got beat. Now this bullshit? How do you do a total 180? It’s so disheartening. I earned this. I worked my friggin’ ass off for this fight. All I did was give him respect and now he wants to save face by shitting on me? All I heard before the fight was how he was going to train like he never trained before and that he had to be absolutely perfect, and now he says he didn’t train. So which is it? Are you a liar now or a liar then? Everything is a cliché with this guy. Stop reading from the script for once and speak from the heart.

Don’t get me wrong, he’s a good, talented fighter but he got beat. I know it’s hard for his camp to believe that Superman lost, but he did. Now they want to say it’s because he wasn’t in shape? If he wasn’t in shape he wouldn’t have been able to go five rounds but he didn’t even last three minutes so I don’t want to hear it. Maybe it’s his entourage — he’s led around by a bunch of morons, well except for his kickboxing coach that guy gets it. But the rest of them they got him convinced he’s a God. He must be a mental midget, which makes us about even since I’m a physical midget. Hey what can I say, I wasn’t blessed with height.

Anyway, for a guy who preaches honor and character, he sure isn’t showing any. I miss the old GSP. I was just as big a fan of his as everyone else. Where is he? You know, that guy who was everything Matt Hughes wasn’t. That makes it even worse. We already knew Matt Hughes was an asshole but Georges was supposed to be one of the good guys. Now we see what he’s really made of. He was calling me his friend before the fight and now all of the sudden I was never anything more than an acquaintance. Well fuck you, I don’t want to be your friend. Hit the road Frenchy.Strong words from a disappointed champ.
While you may agree or disagree with his tone, it is difficult to dispute the facts. I interviewed GSP (http://ufcmania.com/2007/02/17/a-day-and-exclusive-interview-with-georges-rush-st-pierre/) prior to the Serra fight and he looked me square in the eye and told me he was training hard and 100 percent injury free.Clearly, it would be interesting to hear what GSP has to say in response to this.However, I’m starting to think it might be better if they just put it behind them and get back to training. At this rate we’re going to have to start taping vignettes ala WWE just to keep up with where we’re at with all the individual feuds.


Too bad we have to wait until 2008 at the earliest to see that rematch happen.

I agree with Serra 100 fucking percent. The nonsense that GSP spewed out of his mouth was both disrespectful to Matt Serra and a complete cop out. Matt Serra did a beautiful job on calling him out on his bullshit.

War Serra.

I agree with Serra but he doesn't need to say that, he is the champion, he decisively beat GSP; he would be a greater champ if he just brushed it aside and make GSP look like a sore little kid who lost in the playground.

Still a GSP fan though.

Agree, was about to make a post like that myself.

Serra doesn't have shit on GSP, sadly the way the sport has become anybody can win on any given sunday there are so many flaws with the human body and weaknesses, look at kenflo and his elbows.

GSP is the better athlete and fighter, so what if he makes excuses, they are sticking mics in his face and gasking questions like "So why did you suck in your last fight?" not "How do you think you preformed?"

Serra is one of those punks that are respectful in interviews and pre fight but after a win he goes apeshit about how much of a bitch the other fighter is, you all think GSP is a little kid with the way he acts?

Matt Serra needs to shut his fucking mouth, it's hilarious that he says shit like this... claiming GSP is a mental midget and then telling him to "Hit the road Frenchy", Serra is just as big a mental midget as GSP or worse...

Both these guys need to keep their fucking mouths shut and move on, this is getting ridiculous...

GSP needs to knock out Kos and Serra needs to beat Hughes, why not both focus on that instead of dragging out this tired "Who said what?" war...

I'm tired of GSPs excuses and maybe he is just trying to save his image or something (or maybe he was injured... which seems likely because he always is) but I've been getting increasingly tired of Matt Serra and all his highschool drama shit talking... every time he's on the mic now it's "Matt Hughes is a Dick, GSP shut up, Marc Laimon, Wah Wah Wah, I won the WW title, Matt Hughes is a penis, Marc Laimon, I want to punch Matt Hughes, Blah Blah Blah"

I'll be happy when GSP stops making excuses for his loss and when Matt Serra can finally do an interview where he doesn't shit on people he doesn't like.

Either way I agree with Br Nuthugger... fights > hype and drama bullshit

In closing...

GSP - Shut the fuck up, actually, apologize to Serra, then Shut the Fuck up, train for Kos, don't get injured, beat Kos, apologize to Serra one more time, train some more, don't get injured, beat whoever is next, if you do lose though, shut the fuck up in advance

Serra - Shut the fuck up, actually... nope, just shut the fuck up, train for Hughes, do an interview without mentioning a) GSP b) Matt Hughes (in a negative light) c) Marc Laimon d) that you won the WW title (dude... we know) e) all of the above, beat Matt Hughes, prove your win over GSP wasn't a fluke by beating him in a rematch, if you lose to GSP in a rematch... SHUT THE FUCK UP (don't pull a GSP), train some more, try to beat GSP in the rubber match

Well, when you consider the whole "Hughes is a dick" stuff happened in defense to how Hughes was treating Georges. Then this crap, yeah, I don't understand how you could blame him. GSP messed this one up, plain and simple. he definitely lost some of my respect, and probably his good guy image.

I like Serra and I think he's a good guy but you're right... Serra does seem to act like a little punk a lot of the time, he's just as bad as the people he shits on...

The thing that really gets to me though is how he still brings up Matt Hughes and how he is such a dick in every interview... we all know Hughes is a dick... we all know Matt Serra thinks Matt Hughes is a dick... let it go... this and this reason alone is why I feel myself wanting to cheer for Hughes in their fight (also to see GSP/Hughes 3)

Bullshit hotnewton, Serra has every right to call GSP out on his bullshit.

If I trained my ass off, pulled off one of the biggest upsets in MMA, and then some idiot was using every excuse in the book to try to discredit my win to the public, and proceeded to disrespect me by saying that he only took the fight because he thought I wouldn't put up much of a fight... I'D BE PISSED OFF TO. And so would any of you.

What GSP is saying is completely disrespectful and petty. If it was any of the "unpopular" guys like Arona or Tim Sylvia, you guys would be wishing cancer on them. But because GSP was extremely popular, you guys believe his justifications and retort Serra's claims with dumb shit like "Well GSP would beat him 999999999 times out of 1000000000."

Fuck that shit.

GSP is not THAT popular, especially to the casual fans. French accented canadian that beat Matt Hughes?

Real MMA fans that know the game or have seen GSP fight know what kind of monster he is. It would'nt have been an upset if anyone expected Serra had a chance. He's a better fighter that Serra, and will beat him in the rematch.

I don't care that GSP lost to Serra, Serra deserved to win, I've been getting sick of Serra and his shit for a while now.

I agree that Serra has a right to call GSP on his bullshit, but the way Serra calls people on their bullshit is retarded and petty. He opens every interview with "I did it, I'm the WW champ" maybe he should start acting like a champ, he could just as easily say that "He's very dissapointed with what GSP has said and feels very let down by it" but instead he spouts off about GSP, GSPs Camp, GSPs nationality, etc... and so forth

And fuck that right back at you... I hate Tim Sylvia and have stuck up for him on his loss with Randy claiming that now that I know Sylivas back was royally fucked I think the fight could've gone a lot different and I was one of the people who, after hearing about the surgery, forgave Tim Sylvia for saying that he was injured for the fight, because he clearly was injured...
P.S. Not going to give Arona the benefit of the doubt though, he has excuses when he wins...

Once again I will state... I AM NOT TRYING TO JUSTIFY GSPS ACTIONS AT ALL, MAKING EXCUSES AFTER LOSING THE WAY HE DID IS UNNECESSARY AND EMBARASSING TO HIM AND HIS FANS

Now that I have got that out of the way, all I'm trying to say is the way that Matt Serra conducts himself is just as ridiculous, if not more ridiculous than GSP, he acts and talks like a thug for christs sake, Serra talks about class but does not practice what he preaches... Serra needs to start acting the way he would like other fighters to act towards him...

Just one more time for those who are faint of hearing... I do not condone GSPs actions (even if he is legitimately injured), but Matt Serra needs to grow up and shut up as well

I never said a damn thing about GSP not being a great fighter. In fact, I would put my money on him in the rematch.

But the fact is, he got beat fair and square by Serra. Making excuses and disrespecting a guy who knocked you out in the first round makes you look like a bitch.

BTW GSP is incredibly popular, I can't believe you would even try to deny that. Once he beat Hughes, who wasn't really a popular champ, he blew up in popularity.

Yes GSP is being a bitch, but Serra is being an Asshole, he has a right to be mad (actually... he has a right to be downright pissed), but talking about GSPs class or lack there-of while exhibiting none of your own is ridiculous

BULLSHIT. Serra called GSP on his bullshit BEAUTIFULLY. Instead of saying something like "man fuck GSP he's a whiny bitch, I whooped his ass Serra FTW" he stuck to the facts. He pointed out the inconsistency in GSP's stories (claiming he trained hard, then after the fight saying he didn't train much). He pointed out the fact that not being fully trained would probably be a suitable excuse for a longer fight, but really doesn't say much for when you get knocked out almost immediately. So yeah, if you think backing up your arguments with facts and reasoning is retarded and petty, then I agree Serra is pretty retarded and/or petty.

I'm not talking about that part, and I'm pretty sure you know that, you're just being ignorant... I'm talking about calling his entoruage morons, calling GSP a mental midget, telling him to "Hit the road Frenchy", that's the shit that Serra needs to do without, it shows a lack of class on his part as well

I'm trying to show you that I agree with most of what you're saying but being the mental midget that you are you can't seem to get a grasp on it...

Him calling GSP's entourage "morons" was to relay his point that the people GSP has around him must be "yes men" who kiss his ass and inflate his ego. Its a reasonable suggestion for Serra to make.

Him calling GSP a mental midget was in response to the claim that GSP didn't train hard for the fight. If you don't have the discipline to train hard for a championship fight, you are probably a mental midget. Again, this was a reasonable suggestion for Serra to make.

The "hit the road Frenchy" part, you probably have a point with that one, but keep it mind it was just 5 words in a huge paragraph.

I don't give a fuck if you agree with most of what I said. Don't whine like a bitch because I disagree with something you said. If I'm wrong, give me a reason why I'm wrong.

If Serra beats Hughes then I will never doubt him again but this interview makes Serra look like douche bag. I like Matt he's a great fighter, it's all heart with him. But you can't judge another persons heart or integrity when it comes down to MMA or a street fight. It's doesn't matter who won or loss the better man won the fight even GSp ssaid after his Hughes loss that he looked up to him well you said in thaqt interview that you would never make the same mistake. Hee made no mistake Serra beat him fair and square

Not much else I can say, my point has been made.

This sport leaves many holes and avenues for people to get what some call "lucky"

The point of argument is always brought up "they swung for the dudes head and hit them in the head" so there was no luck involved.

I believe that Punch Matt Serra swung initially that rocked GSP came out of nowhere he didn't even see where it was going, it's like how N00bs win at Tekken by button mashing.

GSP is the beter fighter, he will learn from his mistakes again and come back and make Matt Serra his bitch.

A fighter may have hype but his popularity is dictated by how willing people are to stay on their bandwagon after a loss A.L.A Rand Couture is a Prime example, the second GSP lost people immediatley jumped off grabbed a hold of Matt Serras nuts and started shouting about how great GSP wasn't in the first place. GSP is not a popular fighter, he is a good fighter.

Serra always seems to feel the need to make "Suggestions" about other fighters, maybe it's just the way I am, but when an interviewee is dropping F-Bombs and other cuss words, and speaking the way Serra was speaking it just rubs me the wrong way, I don't care who it is about

These guys are professionals and I think they should act like professionals, that means not making excuses and not acting like a 6th grade drop out when interviewed about the guy who made excuses

I don't see why we are automatically supposed to believe that this is GSP's true colours and the other stuff was acting? Seems more likely that this slip-up is what is out of character for him. I think it was PR-spin from his manager/cornermen. Although I'm willing to admit that is a guess.

GSP owes an apology for this one. He said sorry to Hughes before and I think he will man up again this time.

There is a big difference between stating that injury was a big factor in your loss (however true, still an excuse though), and calling someone a mental midget who chooses to surround himself with morons. GSP is gonna be hungry for the rematch. Hope he brings it.

I dig Serra's no-bullshit attitude, but he has a healthy chunk of small-man's syndrome to boot.

If Serra lost and said the same things that GSP is saying it would totally be different. So GSP can say it cause he's a better fighter? This isn't about who's the better fighter(the fight is over), it's about character and integrity. At least have the integrity to follow through with a lie!!!!!!!

It's not that hard to figure out what has happened here:

There was a huge upset in this fight, and people are asking GSP for an explanation. Most likely there isn't really an explanation. The better fighter doesn't always win the fight. However, people are pressing GSP for a better answer than that. They want there to be a reason for this upset, and sometimes he caves in and makes excuses. Even so, the excuses he gives are things he did wrong. He never says "Sera got lucky when I slipped on the damn xyience add on the floor of the cage." He always puts the blame on himself. GSP did infer that Sera isn't that great of a fighter compared to hiimself or Hughes... but that's true. Sera is acting like a fool putting down fighters with far more impressive resumes than his own. While GSP's insult to Sera was inferred, Sera's insults to GSP and Hughes are direct (and childish). I hope the next time GSP and Sera meet, GSP will not consider Sera anything even close to a friend, and act accordingly.

GSP is a cool nice guy and ultra talented and entertaining but at the same time unfortunately he is French. So ofcourse he's gonna turn out to be a prick.

Sorry for my xenaphobia but it is naturaly developed in me as a British citizen to feel this way toward frog/snail/horse eating snobs aka the French.

Case in point - remember what GSP said after Hughes beat BJ?

It's not that hard to figure out what has happened here:

There was a huge upset in this fight, and people are asking GSP for an explanation. Most likely there isn't really an explanation. The better fighter doesn't always win the fight. However, people are pressing GSP for a better answer than that. They want there to be a reason for this upset, and sometimes he caves in and makes excuses. Even so, the excuses he gives are things he did wrong. He never says "Sera got lucky when I slipped on the damn xyience add on the floor of the cage." He always puts the blame on himself.

i dont unuderstand serra is completely in the rite he never talks shit or makes excuses, the only you will ever have beef with him is when you cross his path...

also alot of the beef between hughes and serra was for when serra was sticking up for gsp when hughes was being a dick

It's a damn shame hearing this coming from GSP. He was one of the few fighters I respected highly because of their class.
