GSP not about to under-estimate Hendricks

  In this article, an upcoming fight in the UFC welterweight division is discussed.  Reigning champion Georges St. Pierre defends his title against power hitter and wrestler Johny Hendricks.  Although St. Pierre is recognized as one of the greatest pound-for-pound fighters in the world, behind light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones, he still acknowledges that anyone can lose at anytime, in any situation.  He respects the fact that anyone can be defeated no matter who they are, as proven by Anderson Silva, who was considered the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world until he lost a few months ago.   Provided by the article were multiple statistical standpoint for both fighters, all of which were in St. Pierre's favor.  Despite all these advantages given to him, St. Pierre still stands by what he says, as is the essence of true respect amongst fighters in all weight classes: to not think of themselves as invincible against others in their weight class
