There are many speculations regarding “Rush” return to the Octagon. Will he be able to maintain his previous fighting form after suffering from a torn knee ligament? Will Condit overpower him as a new and improved division has passed him by? So many fans think that this is the moment that St. Pierre has been waiting for; it’s time to reclaim his place as a top 170- pounder in the world. If he ever wins this challenge, he is rest assured of willing challengers that would want a taste of his victory.
