St-Pierre gets honest
“Every morning that I was fighting, when I woke up, I felt like s***. I was like, god damn, oh man. I had a s****y night of sleep. But you know what I do? I lie to myself. I lie to my training partner, I lie to my coaches, and when they ask me how did you sleep – I slept great! I feel good, I’m ready to kick ass. Because I strongly believe the way you carry yourself has a big effect on your mental.
“I used that through all my career, even though I was terrified, I was extremely uncomfortable. I pretend to be invincible and be 100% sure that I was going to go out there and succeed. That was all a lie, because deep down inside, I was scared as hell.”
