He's in Captain America 2.

Do you think the reported head spells and recent acting gig showed St Pierre that a career without punishment is better for his quality of life?

Is he retiring to go the Gina Carano route?
 
I'm going to go out on a limb and say: I bet he can't finish Captain America either.
 
He might just be fried and has other things he wants to do with his life. Maybe he took a lesson from what happened to Hughes after GSP took his crown Hughes took quite a few ass whoopings including another one from GSP. Perhaps he is not interested in that same end to his career and wants out before it comes..

I find MMA fighters make far better fight scene stunt men than the actual ones they use lol. The difference is actually being able to fight lol

MMA fighters are terrible actors and fight choreographers.

 
Heath vs Mir just showed what would have happened to Mir in Pride
GSP's scene showed that if you meet GSP in the street his advanced GNP is lethal

Generally this is true.

I've heard about stunt co-ordinators have issues with MMA fighters because, of course, the MMA fighter has spent years training how to hit someone to the point of muscle memory. Now, all of a sudden it's a movie and they need to pull their punches. A lot of them slip up in the moment.

It also doesn't help that they're often in films with TERRIBLE directors like the clip above. Even experienced actors/stuntmen look retarded in a film made that badly.

Exactly they need to film from much farther away so that their punches doesnt look like theyre missing by so much. Film from far and zoom in so there is less perspective. What a horrible director.

They make great stuntmen. Obviously they can't act but have you seen fight scenes in movies? Scarlet Jo knocking out guys in one (laughable) strike, etc. Mir was good in that clip, it's the editors and choreographers job to make the scene look real. Mir obviously looks like a dude that could fuck you up.

I'm in the same boat as you buddy. This fight looked like a real fight. None of that Scarlet head scissors KO BS.
