'Can't even tell the difference' - MMA Twitter in stitches over Georges St-Pierre's latest Michael Jackson routine

Georges St-Pierre is widely considered among the greatest fighters of all time, and the former two-division UFC champion has one of the most impressive resumes in MMA. While 'Rush' has undoubtedly mastered the art of violence, it seems he's working toward mastering dance moves popularized by the 'King of Pop' himself.

In a recent video uploaded to X, St-Pierre can be seen trying to emulate Michael Jackson's moves from his famous 'Smooth Criminal' music video. The former two-division UFC champion starts with a simple wave before transitioning into a robotic popping move. He then attempts to perform Jackson's iconic moonwalk.

Georges St-Pierre hilariously wrote, "Trying to move like a smooth criminal" in the caption and quote-tweeted:

"Yeah, I still have A LOT of work to do before I get there."

Fans of the Canadian MMA legend couldn't get enough of his dance moves and flocked to the tweet's comments section to express their reactions.

One fan jokingly wrote:

"I can't even tell the difference between Michael Jackson and GSP"

Another fan wrote:

"Georges, you are hilarious. You clearly have too much time on your hands, but you absolutely make the best of it. #GOAT."

Georges St-Pierre confirms Nick Diaz grappling match scrapped due to injuries

Georges St-Pierre and Nick Diaz were slated to run it back for a second time in December, albeit in a grappling-only match at UFC Fight Pass Invitational. Unfortunately, 'Rush' recently confirmed that the matchup has been scrapped due to both men suffering injuries that would sideline them for an extended period.

The former two-division UFC champion announced that he had been booked to compete at the UFC Fight Pass Invitational event on December 14. While his opponent had not been named, many were excited to see the legendary mixed martial artist back in action.

In a recent interview with TSN, Georges St-Pierre revealed that Nick Diaz was to be his grappling opponent. He also confirmed that the fight was off due to injury and said:

"They had an opponent, his name was Nick Diaz. People who are familiar with this sport know we competed against each other in mixed martial arts. Unfortunately, he’s hurt. I think he has a neck injury, and I just got hurt myself. I’ve got a shoulder injury... I have to wait a few weeks to see if I’ll require surgery. Unfortunately, it will be canceled, perhaps postponed for the future."
