As announced last week Integrated Sports Media (ISM) will present a one-hour special featuring current UFC welterweight champion Georges “Rush” St. Pierre’s six non-UFC fights, including his first five and rarely seen 2002 debut, starting tomorrow (Friday, April 1) and airing for the entire month of April.
The presentation, titled “George St. Pierre: Rush To The Top” will be exclusively distributed in the United States by ISM, premiering in April for viewing on both cable and satellite pay-per-view on the following dates: DISH Network (April 1), DirecTV (Apr. 4 – CH # 120), Avail-TVN (Apr. 11) and iN DEMAND (Apr. 12), as well as via Video On Demand, for only $9.95. Check listings for replays through the entire month of April and into May.
St. Pierre, who sports an amazing 21-2-0 career record (8 KOs, 5 submissions) started learning Kyokushin karate from his father at the age of seven in order to defend himself from a school bully. He went on to encompass Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, wrestling and boxing. The current welterweight king holds a third-degree black belt in Kyokushin, as well as black belts in BJJ and Gaidojutsu.
Pierre is scheduled to next defend his title belt April 30 headlining UFC 129 against Jake Shields in Toronto.
