Welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre (Pictured) in a pre-fight conference call prior to his UFC 129 headliner against Jake Shields this Saturday at the Rogers Centre in Toronto:
“There’s a tiny line between confidence and being cocky. I don’t want to be cocky. Even before I started fighting, I always had a strong belief in myself, a very strong confidence in myself. I think that’s one of the reasons I’ve been doing so great. Before I started my professional career, I knew I could be champion. I had that belief in myself. I really believed deep down in my heart I could be the greatest. That’s the same belief that made me who I am today.”
