Head trainer for Georges St. Pierre, Firas Zahabi, spoke to MMAJunkie.com this week about his star students anger heading into this weekend's UFC 158 main event with Nick Diaz and explained why GSP took so much offense to Diaz comments and smack talk:<Br><Br>
Zahabi on how angry GSP is: "I think I've never seen Georges this angry. Maybe he doesn't realize it as much, but he's been insulted many times – worse, even. But I think what pissed off Georges the most is he was insulted while he was sidelined. Nobody else insulted him except Nick Diaz when he was sidelined. He said, 'You're faking. Where are you? Don't be scared,' insinuating that he was lying about his injury. He had a serious injury, and I think Georges carried that with him a long time. After his operation, Georges was in a lot of pain, and he had guys on his list – and Nick Diaz was on top of it."<Br><Br>
Zahabi on if GSP can control his anger in the fight: "He's the more technical fighter and can keep it a technical match. Will it turn into a street fight? We're going to find out Saturday night. I think he's very mature as a fighter in terms of controlling his temperament. But we've never been in this situation. So I don't want to say there's no way he's going to street fight, and then it turns into a street fight. I don't know. This is a unique situation. Nobody's ever gotten under Georges' skin this personally."<Br><Br>
