UFC 217: Bisping vs. St-Pierre Post-Fight Press Conference

On Saturday, Nov. 4, the UFC brings a title tripleheader to Madison Square Garden in New York City for UFC 217: Bisping vs. St-Pierre.

In the night’s main event, UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping will welcome former welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre back to the Octagon. England’s Bisping captured gold at UFC 199 and has since defended the belt against Dan Henderson. The Canadian St-Pierre has not fought since a successful title defense at UFC 167 in late 2013. He later relinquished the belt and stepped away from the sport, but has not tasted defeat in over 10 years.

The bantamweight belt is on the line in the co-main event as former teammates Cody Garbrandt and T.J. Dillashaw lock horns. Garbrandt captured the belt with a dominant performance against Dominick Cruz last December. A former champion himself, Dillashaw will be looking to recapture the title.
