Georges St-Pierre (February 26) is considered one of the best boxers in MMA history. St-Pierre officially announced the retirement in 2019 after defeating Michael Bisping to become UFC's Middle Champion (Middleweight). Previously GSP had a period of nearly 4 years without fighting since November 2017.
However, Marvel movie fans can easily recognize St-Pierre with the role of Batroc The Leaper in “Captain America: The Falcon and the Winter Soldier”.
In an interview with USA Today, his co -star Anthony Mackie revealed that GSP was a bit too heartbreaking in a footage of them.
Sharing with USA Today, Anthony said: “We are making our fighting scenes and he really punched me in the face. And admit that it was a critical punch, but I didn't fall down.”
“Everyone could see that scene very clearly because it was recorded. I then kicked a strong shot again. I fell down, but it didn't knock me down.”
When repeated the situation in the Entertainment Tonight program, Georges St-Pierre tried not to laugh and answer.
“Anthony is a great person. He is a great actor, very attractive,” St-Pierre said. “Anthony often makes people laugh at the set. One day, we spent a lot of hours choreography.
“Despite being hit, Anthony is still a tough hand. Let me tell you this: Anthony stood up immediately and I had to tell him that 'maybe he was the only one who fought with me and made me … hurt more.”
