Georges St. Pierre for the 2009 Lou Marsh Trophy
Sign Now
We, the undersigned, believe that mixed martial artist Georges St. Pierre should be awarded the Lou Marsh Trophy as Canadas top athlete in 2009.
St. Pierre, fighting out of Montreal, is the Ultimate Fighting Championships reigning welterweight champion and is considered by many to be pound-for-pound the best fighter in the world.
Recently, St. Pierre successfully defeated his UFC Welterweight title belt against Thiago Alves at UFC 100 at Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay Casino and Resort. In true GSP fashion, the francophone fighter tore muscles in his groin during the fourth round but fought back the pain and went the distance to win with a unanimous decision.
In 2008, he was named the Canadian Athlete of the Year by Rogers Sportsnet, as well as the Most Outstanding Fighter by the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. St-Pierre is also regarded by Yahoo Sports as the No.1 Pound for Pound fighter in the world and consistently listed as one of the sports top athletes.
The Lou Marsh Trophy is awarded annually to Canada's top athlete, professional or amateur. Given St Pierres dominance in his sport, and the example he has set as a sportsman, it is clear that he is an ideal candidate for the 2009 Lou Marsh Trophy.
