He enters into a special category of warriors who have held two UFC titles: Randy Couture, our own BJ Penn, and Conor McGregor. Now that he and McGregor are back in the UFC at miraculously the same time, a lot of people are clamoring for the superfight to end all superfights. Over at Bovada, they already <a href=\"https:\/\/sports.bovada.lv\/ufc-mma\">have odds released<\/a> on the potential clash of titans.

Even a favorite in his pro debut against Marcus Brimage, the only time McGregor didn&#8217;t contend as a favorite over an opponent was his fight to unify the UFC featherweight title against Jose Aldo. Word from Dana White and St-Pierre himself says that GSP has to defend his middleweight title against Robert Whittaker next, but we all know anything is subject to change. Either way, St-Pierre has more fights left on his contract, so there is always time.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span>\u201cEverything is possible.\u00a0<\/span><span>Everyone is targeting Conor McGregor because he\u2019s the money fight you know. But, I don\u2019t challenge people that are in lower weight class divisions. For me, I don\u2019t do that. I\u2019m going up to fight Michael Bisping now so I\u2019m looking up. He&#8217;s an amazing fighter and it would be an honor, but I don&#8217;t know.\u00a0I don\u2019t know what to say.
