01:00 PM ET 11.15 | Patrick Cote has walked in Georges St-Pierre's shoes. His knee was shredded and sat out for 19 months as well, and despite feeling good in training, it just wasn't the same when he returned. "In training you feel great. You feel 100 percent, you???re ready to go. [You think] It happens to everybody else except me. When the bell rings, you receive the first kick with no shin guard, you receive the first punch with four-ounce gloves instead of 16, and that's the real thing. Now you try to adjust. 'Next time I'm going to avoid that, move ahead.' Bang. Next one, next one. After one minute, you receive 10 punches and didn't land one. But the longer the fight goes, you adjust," said Cote.
