I love GSP's repetitive catchphrases: "Dan Hardy is my toughest opponent", "On [insert fight date], I will be the best best George St Pierre", and "Losing to Matt Serra is the best thing that ever happened to me".

I often wonder if:

a) that's actually his personality
b) he just wants to keep saying the right thing to preserve his image
c) the language barrier makes it hard for him to express himself in anything other than clichés he's repeated over and over.

As someone who speaks fluent French I would love to hear a full interview of him speaking in his native language. I have a feeling he's not as cookie-cutter as her seems. I mean, I know he wouldn't start saying Dan Hardy is a joke and that he doesn't remember who Matt Serra is just because he's speaking French, but I think you'd see more of the real GSP.
