UFC 74: Georges St. Pierre vs. Josh Koscheck?

Thats what i figured after Koscheck beat Sanchez…it’s a great test for KOS but i think if St.Pierre goes back to his old ways and no mercy training, studying his opponent and strategizing he’ll destroy KOS in the first round and look to get his title back asap…but if he comes in like he did vs. Serra then he’ll get knocked out again and we’ve seen how much improved KOS’s standup is.

GSP will shut this fool up.

I like the style of Koscheck. He seems like a natural born fighter and can take some licks. After seeing GSP go down to Serra I dunno what he has or has not. Should be interesting.

So Hughes loses the belt and gets a creampuff(Lytle), and St. Pierre loses the belt and gets Koscheck. Hahaha man some of these fighters are so babied. I’ll bet the GSP nuthuggabunch is going to be all over this.

Should be an interesting fight though. It is good that they’re not just giving him a someguy. I would also like to see Fitch vs. Sanchez.

GSP has learned form his loss in the past and he will again come back. Watch out KOS.

i would like to see karo vs sanchez again

This fight makes sense. Matt Hughes wanted a creampuff after his loss, and GSP is a badass so he wants a tough fight. KOS will be a good matchup for GSP, but I expect GSP to get back to his winning ways. This whole TUF thing, with Hughes and Serra as the coaches is going to drag out this whole saga a lot longer than it needs to be.
LET SERRA AND HUGHES FIGHT ALREADY! WE DON’T NEED TO WAIT 6 MONTHS TO SEE IT!

What would be awesome, have a fight with Hughs and Serra before the season tapes, and a rematch after.

That would be tense.

i think gsp will come out strong to beat up KOS, but i wouldnt mind seeing matt hughes vs. KOS.. if it did go to the ground, we would see who the better wrestler is…and standing..well..KOS is better standing with his quickness..

Kos is good….no disrespect to him, i was so happy when he shut diego up! But GSP is a extremely well-rounded fighter…u cant base the fight on his last fight…yeah he lost but all the fights that he won…u cant say he won didnt win in fashion!!! Possible a good matchup but i give it to GSP

haha good luck Koscheck. I bet we see the old St Pierre on this one, which means you are fucked.

 I know K-OS has some skills but he has never tangled with the likes os GSP. I wanna see Swick vs Diego……….

i gave myself a chub dreaming of that series……

Serra hates him now, image if he lost the title and then had to coach with him. Or better, beat Hughes, tease him all season, then lose.

GSP getting the rematch winner. Would watch every show for sure. And make that annoying guest coach that Serra hated fight GSP at the finale as well.

i hope gsp mauls him

Serra hates him now, image if he lost the title and then had to coach with him. Or better, beat Hughes, tease him all season, then lose. GSP getting the rematch winner.

That makes a hell of a lot more sense to me. If Dana really wanted to create a buzz, he’d make them fight before the next TUF season. GSP and the winner of the Serra/Hughes fight would make a great finale for the next TUF. I can’t believe we’ve got to wait for fricken ever long for this fight to happen.

these days seems like anything can happen in the UFC, can predict a fight & cant root for your favorite fighter to win, anything can happen, but i really hope GSP rises to the top again and terminates anyone who comes in his way…….

As long as GSP gets his head right I’m sure he will be fine. Kos looked much improved but he’s not at the GSP level. I still think Diego could beat KOS. I’m glad we will get to see this fight but it seems so far from now. I guess they have no choice since the battle of the MAtt’s will take place on TUF 6 and that’s the next title battle. That fight isn’t scheduled till end of the year. What the hell! Who did the planning on this one??

thats only the best scenerio for the fans, for the company it makes more sense to have them coach before they fight, and thats why they do it that way. How effective would Serra’s coaching be right after he takes a beating in front of the world and loses his belt, which is the only thing that actually makes him a stand out fighter?

They buy PRIDE FC then make us wait like 8 months for a WW Title defence? Get your head on straight.

They need to change the format immediately considering they have twice as many fighters now.

Make a WW Grand Prix, I’d honestly pay $54.99 or whatever the De La Hoya PPV is, to see a WW Grand Prix with 16 best WW fighters in UFC/PrideFC.

VNDK8 – as far as i know huges/serra are going to be going at it in UFC 75…they where slated for 74 but with 2 title matchs already on the card its been pushed….UFC 75 is expected to take place in sept which is either right before or right after the primere of TUF6

Personally knowing the type of fighter Serra is win or lose he would give a great TUF season. He’s a great coach overall and beating Matt Hughes would hype the situation even more, but losing to Hughes would pump the guy up to get involved in the season more leading up to a possible Serra/Hughes II. In a business perspective BMEss your right…. it does not make sense to make them fight first. Therefore making all us fans wait till the season ends. With winner of GSP/Kos getting the following title shot.

New news to me, but sounds exciting as well

GSP Vs Kos?
If GSP smartens up (which he will) i dont think he will have a problem taking out KOS .. using the Sanchez and KOS fight as an example… Sanchez was not attacking on the other hand GSP will bring it on from the get go.. and is too fast… Kos doesent stand a good chance.

And Matt Hughes will destroy Serra.. he knoes he has to be careful so Serra doesent get that lucky punch in.. but he will finish Serra no problem

GSP has beaten BJ Penn, Matt Hughes, Karo Parisian, Sean Sherk & Frank Trigg. How can anyone knock a fighter with wins over World-Class competition like this under his belt? Whether you like GSP or not, to overlook his record is plain disrespectful.

On another note, I’m a GSP fan AND a Kos fan, no matter how this turns out I probably won’t be all that happy with the end result. At the very least I can hope for an all out war…….actually, Kos is in a position in his career to take a loss from a fighter of GSP’s level & not have it ruin his momentum that much. Especially with his recent win over Diego. GSP on the other hand would suffer more from a 2nd loss which would make 2 in a row for him which would send him tumbling back towards the bottom of the 170 division.

Damn UFC – they’re just trying to keep the KOS down. GSP will make him look bad.

Then again, I don’t care who is next in line to kick Hughes in the nuts. The sooner the better.

I guess since TUF 6 is going to debute in the Fall, they will start, or have already started the taping for the show. Makes it hard for them to fight before the season start. What Dana should have done was get Serra and Hughes to commit to coaching TUF 6, have them fight, THEN start taping season 6. The problem is that Dana would NEVER have these two fight if it wasn’t a PPV. There’s way too much money to be made!

hell yeah, thank you dana white, i take back anything bad i ever said about you, koscheck is gonna get what he deserves, this is the best news i’ve heard in a long long time, i’m sure koscheck is gonna have a different strategy in this one than against diego, he’s gonna try and take gsp to the ground for sure, i hope he gets ktfu, gsp is not losing two in a row, koscheck deserves to get punished for his last fight

So Hughes loses the belt and gets a creampuff(Lytle), and St. Pierre loses the belt and gets Koscheck. Hahaha man some of these fighters are so babied. I’ll bet the GSP nuthuggabunch is going to be all over this.

Should be an interesting fight though. It is good that they’re not just giving him a someguy. I would also like to see Fitch vs. Sanchez.

lytle ain’t no cream puff

i would like to see karo vs sanchez again

i like that idea, why not have a rematch of an exciting fight like that

i think gsp will come out strong to beat up KOS, but i wouldnt mind seeing matt hughes vs. KOS.. if it did go to the ground, we would see who the better wrestler is…and standing..well..KOS is better standing with his quickness..

kos def has better stand up, but being a better wrestler don’t make you better on the ground, hughes would beat him in a ground war, i sure of it…

i don’t mind waiting to see serra vs. hughes, the show is gonna build it up nicely, i know it already is built up but imagine all the shit thats gonna go down on the show, its gonna be awesome, the only bad thing that can come from the long delay is they might over train and think too much and end up having a fight like koscheck and diego, i like to think both of these guys are better fighters than that and just like bj is pissed at jens right now, trust that hughes is gonna be pissed come fight time between him and serra, maybe thats serra’s plan, but i don’t know why he would want to piss off hughes, i just can’t see serra winning this fight, dana needs to milk it for all he can while its hot…

I just hope.. Hughes doesent totally disable Serra .. so St Pierre and avenge that luckkkkyyy shot by Serra.. and then knock out Hughes for laughing after he lost.

This is great news, I just want to put those last 2 main events out of my mind, thank you dana. I personally thought before the diego/koscheck fight that koscheck had a real chance( 40 – 50 % )of pulling off a spit or major decision with his wrestling ability. I was half right, I knew koscheck was a little underestimated by most and that his stand up had improved a lot but still thought sanchez would probably win. I’m still not convinced that if sanchez fought koscheck again koscheck would win, I think diego is the better one on the ground and even though he could’nt stop the take downs he could reverse it and get a better position. I really thought gsp would destroy serra though and still think he would have if he never got caught, s**t happens though. If the real gsp, the one who dismantled hughes shows up for this fight, koscheck is in serious trouble and I think he’ll lose and lose bad. If he does manage to get gsp down, no way in hell is he keeping him there, he’s just too good, and even though he’s improved with his stand up, gsp would destroy him standing, unless he gets caught again. I’m looking forward to the serra/hughes fight and the koscheck/gsp fight….and really hope there both fluke free, so we can really see the fighters actual skills.

I can see this turning into a war. But, with my luck, it will be another quick knockout that leaves me with my jaw on the ground.

NO! That shit wont happen again. Not with the regularity that it has in recent months. I am absolutely positive that GSP will come out with the right frame of mind. I won’t take anything away from Kos, but a pissed off GSP is something that I dont think anyone in that division can handle.

LOL. Everyone is entitled to a lucky punch, or win. Matt Serra, is one lucky piece of #@$^. Skill wise, he is like a baby compared to GPS. I watched him the other night on your show. What a stupid piece of work. I hope he gets his face beat off!!! Count the stars MATT. They sometimes fade. LOOSER!!!

This should be a good one. KOS will have to get busy with GSP. There is no choice for him. I dont think GSP will be a deer in head lights like Sanchez. GSP will knock him out!

Kos and Serra can’t hang with there opponents besides anything lucky and unusual. Pierre and Hughes will come out on top and rule the division again, they are a level above everyone else, untill BJ comes back up to WW. That’s gonna make things real interesting. But believe it, we will see GSP/Hughes III, it just sucks it will take so long.

Who the hell came up with this idea for Sera to fight every 6 months. I really want to say something clever and whitty but I’m clouded with anger. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong here, when GSP beats KOS in August he’s gonna have to wait at least 6 months before he fights the winner of Hughes and Sera? If thats the case that’s crazy.

and some of you guys say Hughes isnt protected yeah right.

protected?

Protected or not Hughes will get his. GSP has all the Physical tools to rule this division. He just has to get himself in the right Mental state of mind before a fight, thats something that Hughes has always been very good at doing.

I hate to bring this up because I think GSP is the man and I hope that he doesn’t fall into this category, but EVERY fighter who has lost a major fight, two fights in a row, or a high profile fight, HAS NOT come back in fine style to their “old self”. Matt h vs lytle, franklin vs MacD, AA vs fabrico, Sanchez vs kos (high profile fight) just to name a few. I think the fighters are so scared to lose again that they don’t let loose and fight like there is no tomorrow. GSP has A LOT to lose if Kos wins but no shame on Kos if Kos loses becasue he’s a up and comer, no one expects him to win. I think GSP is on a whole differnt level than Kos but Kos is hungry and CAN win. Albeit not many people, including myself, WANTS him to win, but he CAN. I hope GSP gets his head right and makes a statement out of his next fight and knocks somones block off but the potential for things to go bad are highly probable so if you are smart don’t bet a lot of money on this one!!!!

When GSP fights and believes he will win, he seems to do just that. When he was saying no one in his weight class could andle his riddum, he was kicking ass. When he said he was gonna hunt Hughes till the end, he did. Gsp needs to cut the modesty shit out, knowing you’re a great fighter doesnt make you arogant, being an asshole like Hughes does. Its okay to believe in your abilities. Now more then ever he must think there is a chance he can loose, and I think this needs to end. Whether there is or isnt a chance of a lose, George needs to believe he is an unstopable nightmare(no referances to “wet dream” Sanchez) When I fight I say to myself, “If I die today, thats okay” There is no future, ever fight is a fight to the death, there is no press conferance after, no post fight party, just two guys and in a ring dancing with death, might as well enjoy it.

I hope GSP gets back to his old ways and kills this ugly blond gollywog.I have a feeling that GSP is gonna be so determined in this fight and he will not only beat Koshcheck but he will destroy him in his best showing to date and leave Matt Huges wondering what kind of beating he is gonna get when he next fights GSP.

Diego is not top tallent, up and coming maybee but no way is he top, and I still rank KOS lower than Sanchez. Their competetion has been pretty weak, with the exception of Karo of course. Other than that both guys have to prove something before I even see either Headline or co-healine a fight card, the fact that GSP has to fight kos now is crap and a big drop in competition for georges espeacially after the upset. Hughes might like the pampering, but come on we keep hearing that the welterweiight division is stacked, stacked…..with what: over hyped wrestlers, rappit punching and short grabbing champion (check out all of serra previouse bouts for that), penn is gone to LW, hughes fighting a third string fighter for his rematch, fitch keeps getting passed over the list goes on and on. Georges its time to throw the cloves and bite down on your mouth pieces and keep looking at the hughes giggle tape and retire all these punks!

ps sorry about the run on sentence rant!

I predicted this fight a couple weeks ago because it was the only fight that made sense for GSP, we all know if he beats KOShe will get another title shot…The only other thought was Jon Fitch…but he has been getting screwed with his match-ups…

Should be a good fight but I hope KOS doesn’t expect GSP to site back and watch him like Sanchez did…

“What would be awesome, have a fight with Hughs and Serra before the season tapes, and a rematch after.”

This is exactly what I would like to see. As far as Kos vs. GSP… GSP is going to expose kos. I’m not sure what happened with Sanchez. I think he had the stand up skills to take Kos, but maybe he was worried about keeping his perfect record and didn’t commit. GSP will step it up and clown that punk.

i don’t know dude, franklin looked pretty much like his old self against mcdonald, and for some reason people think lytle sucks and hughes should have just killed him, hughes executed his gameplan like his old self and beat a very very good fighter(one that i think beat serra, and could beat koscheck or gsp on a given night)unanimously, and i don’t know what high profile fight you think sanchez or arlovski were coming off, cruz and riggs?? i don’t know man, i have to disagree…

true that

I think gsp could easily….yes I said easily, mop the floor with ANY welter weight if he fights like he fought hughes. The difference between any of his other fights and the serra fight is obvious to me, he seemed like a relentless animal in his other matches, he was almost acting as if he was trying to give serra a chance, not good. Like he said he usually fights like there’s no tomorrow, and has nothing to lose but it seems when he has something to lose he sort of chokes. Man I really hope he gets his head on straight and the old gsp comes back better than ever, that would be sweet. Koscheck would get a first class lesson in humility, something diego failed to give him, but I KNOW gsp has the ability to give one.

I’d like to see how Hughes and Koschek do against Karo. Hughes maybe stronger but I think Karo is more versatile. It’s a pity he got injured and that waste of time Riggs took his place. Karo and Koschek could be as good as the Karo / Diego fight.

“And Matt Hughes will destroy Serra.. he knoes he has to be careful so Serra doesent get that lucky punch in.. but he will finish Serra no problem”
Agree, Agree, agree….

Also, good post Nathan, like usual.

And also, Matt Hughes get the title shot after he beats Lytle.
GSP get Kos for the title…..Just what the hell is going on here. There are some good posters in this forum.

But that’s alright, GSP will prove that he’s the stud again.

and really hope there both fluke free, so we can really see the fighters actual skills.

I’ve been having this arguement for the entire month of April. The winner of a Skill vs Skill match-up is much more legitimate IMHO than those that win with fluke situations. I know a “W” is what it’s all about but HOW you get there means just as much in my book.

I don’t care if this is better for Zuffa, having fans wait that long for a title shot is bullshit. GSP will destroy Kos. Kos is a great wrestler who can throw a good right hand…that’s it. He’s just lucky Diego wasn’t himself that last fight or he would have beaten him. I think we should all email ufc and tell them wer’re going to boycott his shit. Gsp loses his title 4 months into the year and has to wait the rest of the year for another shot. Bullshit. He’ll beat Kos and then what? Only two fights in one year? Matt hughes IS a dick who has no respect for anyone else.

i like that idea, why not have a rematch of an exciting fight like that

Depends on how Karo does against Burkman

If your top talent(gsp) you should fight other top talent (supposedly KOS).and igree that hughes is sheltered anybody who says lytle is top talent, did you see the tuf finale versus Serra. he is a cool dude but top talent or anything other than decent ? It doesnt matter though Gsp will kill KOS either he’ll knock him out b4 it goes to the ground(hughes #2) Or he’ll break his face on the ground (sherk)

When will Jon Fitch get the respect and match he deserves? He is the only undefeated/top 5 ranked welterweight and is there a reason why UFC never uses him as a contendor? I mean he took out Burkman in the second round like nothing but yet UFC gives Burkman a fight agains Karo but Fitch isn’t scheduled against any other top 5 contendors. It really doesn’t make sense and I personally believe that he would hurt most of the welterweights in the UFC right now.

As far as Kos vs. GSP… GSP is going to expose kos. I’m not sure what happened with Sanchez. I think he had the stand up skills to take Kos, but maybe he was worried about keeping his perfect record and didn’t commit. GSP will step it up and clown that punk.

 Agreed, diego so didn’t look himself and looked like a deer in the headlights, I KNOW he can do so much better. No way in hell will gsp let him get away with what he did with sanchez, I have never heard booing at a gsp fight, for good reason. I’m still not a diego fan mainly because of his attitude but think hes a good fighter and exciting to watch….most of the time. I think nerves got the best of him with this fight, he seemed so focused on his perfect record. I’m looking forward to his next fight and think he’ll kick ass, unless he fights gsp or hughes next.

Kosheck is unreal but cant beat St Pieere. Serra will Punish Hughes. St Pierre will then regain his title over Serra. Kosheck will retire Hughes. Sounds good Hughes retired!

I would not count KOS out. Last fight he was a man with a plan. He showed a lot of discipline and shocked a lot of people with his improved striking. Who knows what other surprises he might have up his sleeve?

forrest

st.pierre and kos will never happen. st.pierre spoke to peace magazine and listed josh koscheck as a friend that he would never fight, along with david loiaseau nate mardquard and jonathan goulet. He claims that his first karate teacher who passed away trained him to never fight a friend for any amount of money or any reason. George said he would give up a belt befor tangling with kos. He made these statements in march 2007 issue aswell as on all access george st,pierre. so not sure what you guys are all going on about.

To all the commentators who said why did hughes get a cream puff (lytle) and gsp gets koscheck? Gsp got serra and hughes got lytle after they fought each other, unfortunately gsp lost against serra and now is facing koscheck. Both hughes and gsp got " cream puffs " but the truth is both cream puffs were no cream puffs. Lytle and serrra are both under rated and have had pretty shitty luck in there mma career, not saying there at gsp’s and hughes level just I think they have more skills than they get credit for. Styles make fights and nights make fights, what more can I say?

First off St.Pierre will destroy KOS, second why the fuck is Hughes getting a shot so soon, Franklin isn’t getting his rematch

it should be kos vs serra and matt h. vs gsp at 74 then the winners a few mounths down the road. Kos earned his chance and in would love to see gsp beat up on matt h. again

First off St.Pierre will destroy KOS, second why the fuck is Hughes getting a shot so soon, Franklin isn’t getting his rematch

matt h. is danna whites golden boy they must be dating

You make a good point, Matt Hughes wasn’t impressive against Lytle and his fight before that he got KTFO, then I’m seeing Koz, N.Diaz, Fitch, St.Pierre, Parysian on and on and on I can name fighters who have either already beaten Matt Serra or are fully capable of doing so, staying in the mix of “paying their due’s” Fighters,
 Matt was destroyed, his loss to St.Pierre was no lucky shot, he was outclassed.
There is no reason why Matt Hughes should get his title shot so quickly…Have this guy earn his shot, all he had to do was beat up Lytle and he gets a shot, that makes me sick. Either there was a title shot clause in his contract and he figures this is his easiest chance of getting that Championship money or Dana White is playing favorites. Either way it stinx!

Matt hughes does have a rematch clause in his contract but you all seem to be over looking one little detail. The little detail is he won the welter weight title 9 times and defended it 7 times, quite a feat…..if anyone deserves it he does.

When GSP fights and believes he will win, he seems to do just that. When he was saying no one in his weight class could andle his riddum, he was kicking ass. When he said he was gonna hunt Hughes till the end, he did. Gsp needs to cut the modesty shit out, knowing you’re a great fighter doesnt make you arogant, being an asshole like Hughes does.

Like Sera said," I feel sorry for GSP’s next opponent",and so do I because they’re going to take a beating. Georges said ,“I’m on a mission” and I believe him. We are going to see the best GSP ever.

Matt hughes does have a rematch clause in his contract but you all seem to be over looking one little detail. The little detail is he won the welter weight title 9 times and defended it 7 times, quite a feat…..if anyone deserves it he does.

I think you meen he won it 2 times and defended it 9 times. Randy was the first (and only one) to win a title 3 times in one weight class.

I hope that Kos’s heart stops beating after this fight… In
short… I want him dead… Peaople with attitude like him doesnt deserve to live… And on his dead body… chris leben will pour a bucket of cold water…

F&#king awesome, can’t wait for this fight… St. Pierre will beat the crap out of Kos. He’s an amateur wrestler at best.

Koscheck will be the next World Champion. He just spanked Sanchez.This is a very tough fight for Geroge.
Fitch and Sanchez would be a great fight if Sanchez shows up and I bet not.

F&#king awesome, can’t wait for this fight… St. Pierre will beat the crap out of Kos. He’s an amateur wrestler at best.

If you’re talking about Koscheck you’re wrong. He’s a NCAA Div. 1 champion, hardly an amateur. There’s a difference between practicing with the Canadian Olympic team, which is what St. Pierre does, and actually winning wrestling tournaments which Koscheck has done. Koscheck is definitely the better wrestler. Is he the better MMA fighter? I doubt it.

i’m personally looking forward to seeing koscheck and g-s-p fighting in august, it will b a great fight, i’ve notice that koscheck keeps improving by leaps and bounes, and people that critizies him. must not know that criticism is the death garggle of every non-achiever. i think g-s-p is a great fighter also ,but my money’s on koscheck

Honestly, Who has KOS beat that was worth 2 shits besides sanchez and I hardly call that a fight. I say GSP by TKO in the first round.

Now, now.. time to brush up on MMA. On paper, it’s quite obvious who should win. With past wins over Hughes, Trigg, Sherk, Parysian, Penn etc, GSP’s record and experience is far superior to Koscheck’s. That’s a given. It’s clear that GSP has also improved by leaps and bounds in the last three years. If things go the way they should, we’ll see Koscheck KTFO within 2 rounds. It’s all about GSP’s state of mind during the fight. I tend to thing Serra was right in saying that he feels sorry for GSP’s next opponent. In theory, Rush should show up real hungry for a win.

it’s a mismatch.
i bet you know who is gonnaown what’s his name.
think about why you know who i’m giving major odds here?
anyone got a link to the sanchezkos vid

Kos wont eagerly put himself in a position to get ktfo

true he’s defensive.
i don’t think he has a punchers chance cus he’s not a puncher.
the best i could imagine is he loses a decision for surviving but not ttacking

also kos is just too slow for gsp, speed and strategy wise

kos is so gay how he waits until 15 seconds are left to shoot just in case he gets caught in a sub, he just figures he can hold his breath that long

This sucks cuz I like Kos, to see him get thrown into the lions den like this is a bummer, but a loss to GSP wont hurt his career, early in his career, and GSP is a top contendar.

kos,
is not my fav, but nevertheless i can’t blame fighters for using their heads and using the league rules, physical surroundings and noting their opponents strengths in order to do well.
If I had to fight a wild lion I wouldn’t try to bite its head off just to please the audience

well it seems no one here is giving koscheck a chance. Heres how it goes….koscheck takes him to the ground easlily and makes another boring fight of it. ST pierre cannot out wrestle koscheck and thats all koscheck needs

just remember no one gave serra a chance over st pierre. Koscheck is the mark coleman of the welterweights. They cant stop his takedowns and he has more wind than coleman

hey there mike , i’m pulling 4 KOSCHECK b cause i know him personally, he’s improved alot since the TUF SHOW that he was on. from sum 1 that just had a wrestling background. 4 25 yrs, and no mma background. people want to talk s—t about him . that’s all they can do is talk s—t. JOSH is a person of action and people that watch ufc will see him talking with his action in the cage on the 25th.

Coleman is shit.

well it seems no one here is giving koscheck a chance. Heres how it goes….koscheck takes him to the ground easlily and makes another boring fight of it. ST pierre cannot out wrestle koscheck and thats all koscheck needs

Nothing is going to be easy against GSP, especially taking him down. Sherk is very similar to Kos and every time he attemped a takedown, sprall,sprall, sprall and sprall. This time Kos has to worry about being taken down himself. We haven’t seen much of eithers GnP defence ,but we have seen that GSP is way more ruthless in his GnP.

GSP accoplished his dream to become a champion and totally got lost with the fame and stardom but know that he know’s what it feels to win a championship and loose it at the same time. i think that he will come back stronger than ever, more focused, more determined and have that lion heart again.

as far as koscheck goes, he’S a good wrestler and got quick hands and trains at AMERICAN KICKBOXING ACADEMY and can definitely get those takedowns againts st. pierre but i dont think he can keep him down there and i know st. pirre can easily bride him from that position so it really wont matter!

we will see the re-birth of goerge st.pierre on UFC 74! this kid is something special and this is just another step back in his long carreer in the ufc!

kos ’s eyes dart about nervously
when he talks about GSP.

any kos links?
