GSP itching to return to action

St-Pierre tore an anterior cruciate ligament in December, had surgery and will be prevented from defending his title until November. Two months after surgery on his knee, he is still in rehabilitation.

“I’m two months away from starting to train again,” the Canadian told Telegraph Sport yesterday. “There was one move on there I really couldn’t go for, because of my knee.” But he was visibly itching to get back into action.
