Macbeth's cockiness in Act 5, Scene 3 is a result of his overconfidence stemming from the witches' prophecies. He believes in his invincibility due to the ambiguous nature of the prophecies, particularly the one about "none of woman born" being able to harm him. This false sense of security leads him to underestimate the threat posed by Macduff, ultimately contributing to his downfall.
