Last weekend Georges St. Pierre retained his UFC welterweight title in a hard-fought battle with Johny "Big Rig" Hendricks, to the dismay of most mixed martial arts observers. The most important observer of all last Saturday, UFC president Dana White, is one of those who felt Hendricks earned the title.

After the fight, GSP seemed worn down and almost resigned to the fact that he may have been beaten by Hendricks, regardless of the judges' verdict.

"There was a lot of talk about what was going to happen [after this fight]," St-Pierre said. "I have a bunch of stuff in my life happening. I need to hang up my gloves for a little bit. I will make a point on that a little later, but for right now, I've got to go away for a little bit."

White was furious following the fight, telling reporters "Nevada is a very scary place," White said. "This is the worst commission on the planet. I'm afraid to bring fights to Las Vegas.

"I'm blown away that Georges St-Pierre won that fight. I'm the promoter and he's the biggest fighter in the sport. I should be, 'Woo-hoo, these idiots gave it to Georges,' but it's not fair, it's not right. Johny Hendricks won that fight and he deserves to get that fight again."

That last part is something White has continued to be adamant about, despite GSP's reference to some kind of personal discord.

On UFC Tonight, White criticized GSP's comments. "He made a big mistake, when he said what he said. Shouldn't have said it, didn't make sense, and it left everyone wondering what was going on, including me.

He continued, "When we talk about "GSP doesn't owe you anything," you're wrong, here's the reality: GSP took almost a year and a half off, and he's had two fights since then-since he tore his ACL out. When you fight in this sport, there's a small opportunity for people, and there's a lineup of people who want a shot at the UFC 170 pound title. You can't just say, "I'm going to put this on hold" because you have personal problems. You can't do that. No, you cannot. You can't do that."

When asked about St. Pierre's possible retirement after the controversial loss, Hendricks was in no mood to discuss his opponent. "I don't care about Georges," Hendricks said. "That's what I've said from the very get go. I beat him anyway."

Should St. Pierre decide to return to the octagon, it seems fairly clear whom he'll face.
