\nUFC welterweight, Rick ‘The Horror’ Story is the only man to defeat the UFC’s number one welterweight contender, Johny Hendricks. He’s also a former training partner.<\/p>\n

Story, is now helping the champ, GSP train for his UFC 167 showdown with Hendricks.<\/p>\n

“It’s a plus for me,”<\/em> St-Pierre told the French-Canadian media. “He’s a guy with a similar style to Johny Hendricks. He’s also the last person to beat him. He won by decision. It was a close fight. But he won. He has even trained with him. He can give me some tricks, tell me how he is.”<\/em><\/p>\n

According to reports<\/a> it was GSP’s coach, Firas Zahabi who approached Story with defecting to the try-star gym and helping GSP prepare.<\/p>\n

“I wasn’t convinced at first.” <\/em>Story said<\/a>. “But I told myself it would be good for my career to work with a such a reputable camp. I am certain Johny [Hendricks] will understand my decision to come here. I have to do everything to succeed and he’ll understand that.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Will this new pairing help the champ retain his crown?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
