GSP attends UFC 196, sparks UFC 200 rumors (Video)
Georges St-Pierre attended the UFC 196 fight card in Las Vegas on Saturday night, sparking some rumors about a potential superfight with Conor McGregor at UFC 200.
The UFC posted the following video to their Vine account ensuring that their fans would see it:
Multiple MMA insiders such as Ariel Helwani pointed out how unusual it is for GSP to attend a fight in Las Vegas indicating there could be some extra meaning behind this:
GSP isn't the type to come to Vegas to just hang out and watch fights. He played coy and I asked about 200 and McGregor. Very interesting.

GSP has not fought since beating Johny Hendricks at UFC 167 in Nov. 2013. He retired and has made no indications that he wants to continue fighting. One of his biggest complaints has been the PED testing in the UFC. However, going back to late 2014, there were rumors he would make a return. UFC boss Dana White has also said he guarantees GSP would be back.
