He is one of the best MMA fighters in the world… Georges St-Pierre is also a star in his native Quebec and now has his statue in his hometown.
Indeed, St-Isidore surprised GSP by honoring it with a statue, to say the least unusual and which was a little mocked on social networks because of its resemblance to the former president. American, Barack Obama. St-Pierre shared this photo and seemed to appreciate the gesture (via lowkickmma) :
« I am very touched by this honor that my youth municipality grants me. I hope that Place GSP will be a place of inspiration and meetings for all generations and a symbol of perseverance, especially for young people who have big dreams.«
So we also learn that it will have a place in its name.
Even if this statue may seem a little “failed”, it honors a fighter who largely deserves this award in his hometown given the immense impact he has had on MMA.
And you, how do you find this statue? Tell us about it!
