Its been a long year and a half for UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre. The champ took to Twitter and Facebook today to announce that he’s been cleared to compete again after a lengthy absence from the cage. Here’s the message St-Pierre wrote his fans on Facebook: Yesterday was the final chapter of my Road to Recovery- I’m now medically cleared to compete in professional mixed martial arts! Big thanks to all my fans for the amazing support during those 9 long months of rehab- couldn’t have done it without you. Also special thanks to Dr. ElAttrache and Heather at Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic + Gavin MacMillan at Sport Science Lab. I’ve been so lucky to work with such professional and kind people and I’ve learned a lot from them. It’s been an incredible experience. Rendez-vous le 17 novembre, UFC 154, Montréal!!!
