St-Pierre, who already defeated Koscheck at UFC 74, promises that he will not join the American's provocation game and that his skills will make the difference tonight so that he can successfully defend his belt for the fifth consecutive time.
“If you fight angry, sometimes you make mistakes, and that's exactly what he (Koscheck) wants me to do. I’m not going to enter this game”, said the champion.
For his part, Koscheck maintains his challenging style that has accompanied him since the beginning of his career. The fighter is looking to win his first belt since his UFC debut in 2005.
