St-Pierre stomps Serra to become Undisputed UFC Champion

Georges St-Pierre once again rose to the top of the UFC Welterweight Division with his victory over Matt Serra Saturday night. St-Pierre won at 4:45 of the second round due to a TKO. GSP finished it off with several knees to Serra's body.

There was no doubt going into the fight whose side the crowd was on. St-Pierre grew up 20 minutes outside of Montreal and was the undisputed crowd favorite. Serra took all the boos in stride and played a great villain to St-Pierre's hero role. St-Pierre did a great job staying in the moment and not letting his emotions get the best of him at the start of the fight.

I didnt like the stoppage at all! I dont think a fight should be stopped with knees to the side unless the guy taps. Which he didnt. But its over. I am not a Serra fan just the way I feel.

I was thinking that at first but Matt wasn't defending himself at all and those knees looked vicious. I think Matt was glad that the ref stopped it. he didnt complain about the stoppage and looking at the reactions on his face just yelled tap in itself. i think Serra's a good guy but he fought a different version of GSP last night.

I dont think that is the way Serra does it when he loses... I think he takes it like a man, but with Serra a lot of people see it as he was wanting out of there and didnt want any in the first place...

Right before they went to the ground for the last time Serra was just swinging for the fences, you could tell that he was just out of gas.
Funny, though, Serra was quite cocky before the fight.

Serra is cocky before the fight just like 75% of the other fighters. They all talk crap, because a lot of people do it for the fight so it can get bigger and bigger so they can make more and more money. So do it because they hate the guys guts.

It paves the way for the Serra Hughes retirement match which we have all been waiting for!
