'Rush' has gone on record to say that he does not like fighting. Speaking to ESPN MMA's Ariel Helwani, St-Pierre said:

"I never liked to fight, to tell you the truth. You know, I never enjoyed it for a second. People think I'm lying but this is the truth. I never loved to fight. I never liked it. People ask me why you are fighting then. I guess, I like to win better than I hate to lose. I like the money that I was making, I like the freedom, you know. In order to have that freedom, that money, that access to things that people doesn't have, I needed to fight. That's how I make a living."
