Georges St. Pierre most likely would have had the crowd behind him in his next UFC welterweight title defense against Josh Koscheck no matter where the fight took place.
That is all but a certainty now.
Ariel Helwani of MMA Fighting reported that UFC 24: St. Pierre vs. Koscheck II will take place at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canda, on Dec. 11.
The face of Canadian mixed martial arts, St. Pierre will make his second trip to his hometown under the UFC banner. He defeated Matt Serra to reclaim the welterweight title at UFC 83 in April 2008.
This will be the fourth time that the UFC has been to Quebec. In addition to the aforementioned UFC 83, Quebec also hosted UFC 97 in April 2009 and UFC 113 in May 2010.
