Canadian mixed martial artist Georges St-Pierre successfully defended his
welterweight title in both bouts he contested in 2013, but will end the year
without the gold around his waist for the first time since 2007.
Lucas Leiva Jersey . On Mar. 16, coming off a
"fight of the year" performance at UFC 154 the previous November, St-Pierre
faced Nick Diaz at UFC 158 in what would be his eighth defence of the
welterweight title. Using his superior athleticism, St-Pierre cruised to a five
round, unanimous decision victory setting up a much-anticipated title defence
against number one contender Johny Hendricks. While the victory over Diaz was
standard issue dominance from St-Pierre, his Nov. 16 bout at UFC 167 against
Hendricks was hotly contested and had a controversial finish. Despite the fact
that most people covering the fight scored the victory for the challenger and
post-fight metrics, as well as St-Pierres face showed Hendricks was more
effective, two of the three judges scoring the bout gave the advantage to the
champion allowing him to leave with a split decision victory. UFC president Dana
White was irate after the fight even calling for the Nevada Governor to launch
an investigation into the Nevada State Athletic Commission. It was clear
something was also wrong with St-Pierre when after the fight he said that he
needed to step away from the UFC, causing speculation that he was going to
announce his retirement. Finally on Dec. 13, St-Pierre announced that due to
personal issues which he did not reveal, he would be taking an extended break
from the UFC as well as vacating the welterweight title he has proudly defended
since 2008. "Im going to take a break. I need this," said St-Pierre. "I need to
have a normal life for a bit. Ill feel better and come back stronger." Whether
this is the end of St-Pierres career or just a bump in the road, he will easily
find his way into the UFC Hall of Fame and go down as one of the greatest to
ever step into the Octagon.

last season," said Stamps GM John Hufnagel.SAN DIEGO -- San Diego Chargers
outside linebacker Dwight Freeney has a torn quadriceps muscle that could
sideline him for several weeks or even the rest of the season. Coach Mike McCoy
and general manager Tom Telesco both said Monday that the team doesnt know the
severity of the injury or the time frame for recovery for the 33-year-old pass
rusher. Freeney was hurt in the second quarter of San Diegos 30-21 victory
against Dallas on Sunday. After being tended to for several minutes, he walked
off the field without help. McCoy said the team and Freeney are exploring their
options. Freeney could be placed on injured reserve designated, which would
allow him to return later in the season. "Hes talking to some people, were
talking to people and just really kind of figuring out what is the best way to
go," McCoy said. "That is a possibility. Well just wait and see in the next
couple of days, the severity of it exactly, what our plan is going forward." If
Freeney was placed on injured reserve deesignated, hed be eligible to return to
practice in six weeks.
Cameron Brannagan Jersey. Hed be eligible to
return to the active list after eight weeks. If the injury is more significant,
he could be lost for the season. After starring for Indianapolis for 11 seasons,
Freeney was released in the off-season after his production dropped for the
third straight season. He sat on the free agent market for more than two months
before the Chargers signed him in late May, days after Melvin Ingram tore up his
left knee in an off-season workout. Freeney was Indianapolis career sacks leader
with 107 1/2. He had one-half sack with the Chargers and provided a strong
presence off the edge. "Anytime you lose a great player like Dwight Freeney, its
a blow to your team," McCoy said. "Thats offence, defence, special teams, in
your league. When you lose one of the greatest players of all time on your team,
with an injury like that, in a game, thats tough. I give a lot of guys credit
for stepping up."
