Rolling Stone rarely covers sports but in the August 6 issue the music magazine presented a section titled “Sports on the Edge ’09″ profiling the “baddest man in their respective businesses.”
The page featured football player Larry Fitzgerald, U.S. soccer goalie Tim Howard, MLB’s Chase Utley and Ron Artest of the NBA. On the top of the page with the largest color photo though was the UFC’s own Georges St. Pierre getting top billing. The text included some high-praise comments from Dana White. White called St. Pierre “the new breed of mixed martial artists”, “he’s good at everything and is getting more confident.”
White continued: “Anybody that the public or UFC sees as a challenge to him he wants to fight.”
