GSP training camp coming soon?

[TribalPhoenix]

So it appears that Freddy Roach has been telling the media that GSP is planning on doing a 6 week 'training camp' to assess if he still has the fire to compete that he once did... if he finds the fire, he'll fight, and if he doesn't, he'll officially retire.

Let the speculation begin!

Do you think he'll come back? If so, who do you think he fights first? If not, what is his next step?

Can't see a fight that makes sense.

As I mentioned in the other thread... if he's gotten smaller, maybe Conor, but McGregor won't do that fight. And that would be strictly for money

 

[Peter Griffin]

I think if he comes back it sounds like it will be a one and done thing. I don't see him fighting for the 170 belt, or any belt for that matter. If he does come back, a fight on UFC 200 makes the most sense IMO and in that case, the "superfight" between him and Anderson is really the only fight I can see making sense.

I could definitely see a Silva fight or maybe Lawler/Condit and then retire for good. Either fight would sell like crazy but would still love to see him fight Anderson... actually maybe that's not a fight that would happen given why Silva's out now.

If he does come back I'm not interested in the Andersson fight. Either compete for the belt or retire.

He will lay down for CM Punk.

He will lay down for CM Punk.

At this rate, I'll put money on GSP winning the Welterweight title again before CM Punk making his debut.

The guy is 36 years old. Not sure what people were expecting. Training camps are rough, and I'd imagine more so for a guy like Punk. Hopefully he's got a tight group of people and isn't sparring with random people looking to make a name for themselves by drubbing him during a spar.
