A rematch between UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre  and Johny Hendricks  will happen, according to UFC President Dana White, and the fight could place on the promotion’s annual Memorial Day weekend event in Las Vegas. In an interview Monday with the LA Times , White said St-Pierre is taking a vacation “off the grid,” but not a hiatus from the sport as he originally announced following his split-call win over Hendricks at this past Saturday’s UFC 167. “As far as a rematch, we’re on schedule and I’ll have a date within a couple weeks,” White said. “I feel confident that Georges is fine with that and all is on track.” St-Pierre’s post-fight speech initially brought anger from White, who said following the event that the champ owed a rematch to Hendricks in light of the first bout’s controversial scorecard
