Excuses..Excuses..Excuses! He better show up against Kos. I think he’s got the skills to be one of the best ever in the division but two losses in a row will not work out

We all knew something was fishy wth St. Pierre when he kept telling everyone how hard he was training for the Serra fight, Aren’t you always supposed to train that hard Georges? He definitely let the limelight get to him. I think he will outclass koschek, and probably regain the title again. Hopefully this isn’t a situation when an athlete is his own worst enemy.

This is irrelevant…what matters is that GSP is going to tear Kos limb from limb and knock his head clean off Mortal Kombat style.

I’m glad that the fight is less than two weeks away. After that we’ll be talking about when he will get a title shot. Or will we be talking about how stupid the UFC is for cooling off this division by having a 7 or 8 month lag between title fights…That was complete idiocy.

GSP reminds me of a young Michael Tyson. :P

GSP is gonna go into this one well trained i have no doubt in that. But GSP has so much raw talent that easing off training a little bit probably wouldnt hurt his game to much except for maybe the stamina. Kos can only hope to clip GSP with a punch and pray. You cant really train to not get effected by a punch in the face. If Kos wants any chance of winning he has to step up his fight game about 110% cuz if he puts on a showing like all his other fights he’s gonna get handled.

Iam a huge GSP fan, and no doubt his expressions after the fight come off real fishy. What is the most strange part is why has nobody ever watched the fight over again. He was doing fine until he gets caught in the back of the head while sliping Serra’s punch. Than twice again in the back of the head after his leg gave out near the cage. Its a loss but seeing as how punches to the back of the head are illegal standing or on the ground. Why he needed excusses is a mystery to me….

I believe this 100%. However, no matter how much he trained, he should have beat Serra. GSP almost has to come back and flat out dominate, at the cost of his reputation.

I keep reading that Kos can only hope to get lucky and catch GSP. I guess I would have to agree, but we must also note that, while Serra did catch GSP with a punch on the back of his head, not too many other fighters are even able to reach GSP. He uses his range very well, and uses his jab so effectively. Kos is not gonna just be able to swing away and pray. If he starts swinging he’s gonna catch nothing but air, as GSP has just backed out of his range. And while his hands are being thrown, his face will be vulnerable. GSP should catch Kos, with either a punch or one of his beautiful head kicks. In the end, just look for GSP to pick Kos apart.

Just more and more excuses. Im pretty sure that i recall GSP saying that everyone thinks matts and underdog but hes going to train his ass off to be 100% because he doesnt take any fighter for granted. Besides a couple nights of drinking is not going to cancel out months of training. I love GSP but he got knocked the fuck out by a man with a bigger heart so JUST FUCKIN ADMIT IT!!!

I believe it is bullsh!t to throw up a bunch of excuses after a fight.

Before his fight with Sera if they asked him how has his training been coming along and he said “well you know- I am out partying a lot and getting laid so many times. I don’t have much energy for ze training”, that’s fine. That’s full disclosure. However I don’t recall him saying anything negative before the fight. Nothing about brain tumors or taking it easy or injuries two weeks before.

George, leave the excuse making to Tito Ortiz. Go out and stomp the merde out of Koscheck!

GSP needs to admit that he just got caught. No one thinks that Serra, or anyone else in that division, is as talented a fighter as he is. Once he gets back in there, I see him going right back to dominating everyone in the division.

I agree that GSP has skills. The way he manhandled Frank Trigg on the ground is as
good a top-control training video as any. The man is just a loose cannon when it comes to being out of the Octogan. He’s on a downward spiral with the likes of many
celebrities. Hopefully someone brought him back down to reality.

Kos looked “competent” against Sanchez, I’ve yet to see him pull of a win nearly as impressive as GSP’s over Matt Hughes. And lets face it Matt (at that time) was the ultimate competition for any welterweight. Kos made short work of Goulet, but he’s not really in the same league…

GSP is gonna absolutly destroy Josh Koshcheck and I am just gonna sit back with a beer and watch it. HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Didnt GSP also fight with 1 hand behind his back? I thought that was in the contract too. Also, if Serra got tired he was allowed to tag his partner to jump over the cage to replace him. It was a tag team match against GSP.

I am so tired of him making excuses everytime he loses!! Take it like a man like Liddell did!! “he was the better man today”

If GSP does lose to Kos, I can’t wait to hear all of his excuses this time. He clearly got caught by a couple of punches behind the ear. He didn’t need to make excuses. But still he and everyone around him does, and still do.

I have never been a big GSP fan (of course I respect his well rounded talent, and he is a beast at 170), and I have hated KOS ever since TUF season 1. I must say, that I don’t hate him quite as much now, but I am no where near liking him. So in the upcoming fight, I will be rooting for a couple of outcomes. I would love to see KOS get absolutely man handled and beaten down like a little blonde curly haired step daughter in the first round. BUT, once the fight passes the first round, I will be rooting for KOS. If GSP can’t finish KOS in the first round, I don’t think he deserves an immediate title shot. So, in the first round, I want to see either one of them get destroyed and KTFO very badly in the first round, otherwise I root for KOS. The last thing I want to see is a boring chess match between these two that result in a 29-28 GSP decision.

SOMEBODY BETTER GET THEIR ASS KICKED!!!!

GSP will beat Koscheck on Aug 25th and Hughes will beat Serra in December. We’ll then see GSP/Hughes 3 for the title (in Montreal hopefully!) and everything will be back to normal (as long as there are no staph infections) when St. Pierre takes the belt in 2008.

Check out Hughes in 2007…Beats Lytle (in a boring decision) and then gets rewarded with ample farm time, a tv show (which will give him another ride, more exposure for rookie fans, along with loads more WWE style hype vs. Serra) and a title shot vs Serra. All of this as a reward for getting crushed by St.Pierre. I just don’t understand it. The dude couldn’t even finish Lytle and he gets a title shot and tv show out of that?

GSP is a pu$$y, cant wait for KOS to whip his a$$. Cry more GSP…face it .. you got your ass beat fair and squar, quit making excusses already…

So if he gets knocked out again what will he say? Mabye “My mommy gave me my glass jaw I can help it”

There is no doubt GSP is a great fighter. However, he doesn’t seem too strong mentally. He looked very nervous walking into the octagon that night. Hopefully he will be able to handle being a champion again in the future.

Dont worry your boy Kos is young in the game. You’ll be seeing Kos get his a$$ whipped soon believe it.

I like GSP but these excuses are stupid. If he doesnt destroy Koscheck, I am going to lose interest in GSP very quickly.

So if he gets knocked out again what will he say? Mabye “My mommy gave me my glass jaw I can help it”

Yeah excuses suck but Serra is a joke.

I wouldn’t doubt that St Pierre partied a bit more than usual. He got a nice fat contract after his win over Hughes, so you know he got paid bank and probably lived like a rockstar. We were not privy to how much he made for his fight vs Serra because Texas does not disclose fighter salaries. Obviously, that salary will be much lower than what he actually got paid, but, i wouldn’t doubt if he was getting Matt Hughes money now (in a recent interview he said “not even close” when asked if he had $300k a year.)

So it’ll be interesting to see his disclosed salary vs Koscheck

ViolentMike, if GSP doesn’t finish Kos in the first round then he doesn’t deserve an immediate title shot?? Matt Hughes took Chris Lytle to a decision and got an immediate title shot. Lets say GSP beats KOS by TKO in the 2nd or 3rd, or lets even say he wins a decision. Hell, lets even say he wins a split decision. Then who do you have fighting the winner of Hughes and Serra?? Koscheck?? Karo? Diego? The winner of this fight must get the title shot…..regardless. Any doubts that anyone has against GSP….they’re hilarious. The guy has swept up this entire division, and one loss later, he gets hated on. 10 years from now, when GSP is one of the most dominant fighters this world has ever seen, just remember that you were one that always doubted him……just remember that.

I hate GSP and his dumbass excuses. He got caught and got knocked the fuck out. matt hughes will be the new champ once again.

GSP must be a clown then, because serra certainly whooped that ass. People always want to make excuses when a fighter they like loses a bout.
Some fighters might not do well against other fighters in their division, but serra and gsp only fought each other on that night. Serra has GSP’s number and thats what everyone witnessed. When they fought serra was the better fighter period, if you disagree just ask yourself one question, who got knocked the f$$$ out, wasn’t Matt. Stop hating until your fighter is able to prove that he still has championship skills in the octagon. If your boy loses against Koscheck I’m sure you and everyone else will have excuses galore as to why it happened. Diego and St. Pierre fans make the most excuses as of lately, guess they shouldn’t have been looking past the guy they were in the octagon with. What happened to good sportsmanship and admitting that someone just lost. NO and then and then and then etcc…

Cory, Canadian?

“If GSP doesn’t finish Kos in the first round then he doesn’t deserve an immediate title shot??”

Correct, in my eyes, GSP should completely destroy KOS – in the first round. KOS sucks. He hasn’t fought anyone with a name, other than a hepatitis C, staff infected, dirty Sanchez. So that clearly doesn’t count. So if GSP doesn’t finish KOS convingly, then IN MY EYES, he DOES NOT DESERVE a title shot.

Who else derserves a title shot? I am not a fan of Karo Parysian cuz he’s a complete dick, but he truely does deserve a title shot as well. He had a title shot against Hughes, but had to back out due to injury. He’s probably not the best example here, since he hasn’t finished a fight since he was 17 years old, but still – not many, if any, would complain if Karo was to soon get a title shot.

Also, Jon Fitch is 6-0 in the UFC. Name me another WW, or anyone in the UFC, that can say the same. So with a win over a healthy Diego, why not a title shot?

P.S. Do I think Hughes DESERVES his title shot after his performance against Lytle – no way. But that’s besides the point.

ViolentMike, if GSP doesn’t finish Kos in the first round then he doesn’t deserve an immediate title shot??

That statement came about when I was listing the outcomes I’d like to see:

1) Either of them to get killed in the first round.

2) KOS to win if the fight goes past the first round.

I fully expect GSP to knock KOS head off in the second minute of the first round, so Cory, you don’t have to start crying because someone doesn’t charish the almighty GSP like you do.

He lost to Matt Serra. Let me say that again. He lost to Matt Serra. What’s YOUR excuse? I’d like to add it to my list of 1001 excuses GSP, his team, and his fans have made since he lost to Serra.

GSP reminds me of a young Michael Tyson. :P

Is that an insult. Mike Tyson was never the poster boy for boxing.

GSP is well liked and respected plus he is a class act. I don’t think Mike was ever a class act, more like a circus.

GSP is a pu$$y, cant wait for KOS to whip his a$$. Cry more GSP…face it .. you got your ass beat fair and squar, quit making excusses already…

Didn’t he (GSP) say that he got beat fair and square after the fight. It was later on when the excuses came but he did say that Matt beat him fair and square.

I’m just keepin it real Mike….just keepin it real.

SOMEBODY BETTER GET THEIR ASS KICKED!!!!

haha word. Thats all taht needs to be said.

More excuses, hep c staff infection, all you fans loved this guy until he got clipped by Kosscheck. I guess that proves how unliked Kosscheck is. He still kicks ass though, St. Pierre better be training hard.

All the hype is bull anyways, because this will be a close fight, I don’t think St. Pierre will be taking too many chances like everyone thinks, he will be scared to lose again, therefore he will probably lose.

holy shit I am sick of these excuses!!

I hope GSP rams Koscheck’s head through the fuckin cage

Since when is Patry his former manager? If he is, he lost his best client, no wonder he’s talking crap.

GSP sucks why are people sucking up to such a B fighter like St Pierre?? And whoever thinks this fight is not going to decision is insane, Kos will keep his distance or smother him with the blanket, GSP by split decision, Crowd will BOO and People online will claim for years that Kos got robbed just like when Forrest fought Tito. GSP= Most over rated fighter of 07’

LOL I hope your joking. st.pierre a B fighter? LOL. He’s the best fighter pound for pound in the world, also one of the most popular, and a gentleman to boot.

Tyson is a loser and GSP is NOTHING like him.

I am so tired of him making excuses everytime he loses!! Take it like a man like Liddell did!! “he was the better man today”

Sounds like you get tired pretty quick, how many fights has he lost? You must have missed the part when GSP said ,he got beat by the better man, right after the Sera fight.

I hope GSP rams Koscheck’s head through the fuckin cage

It would probably improve Koscheck’s looks. GSP would be doing him a favor.

GSP learned the hard way what happens to someone who shows up less than 100%. He is gonna look across the cage and see not a person, but an obstacle in the path to redemption. I would not like to be across the cage looking back.

Bloodymess doesnt have a clue and is obviously a UFC nub.

Watch his highlights little fella, see how you are supposed to fight in mma.

One mistake doesnt make you a joke, its makes you human. Kos is in a lot of trouble if the real GSP shows up……..bet on that.

How does Sera have GSP’s number after 1 fight. When you can beat someone repeatedly ,then you have their number. Diego and BJ fans have the most excuses by far.

This whole topic is full of hater wining and sniveling about Gsp’s(fans) excuses(where are all these fans excuses). Gsp fans know that the loss to Sera will only make him come back stronger and more dominant than before. I’ll bet the reason for so many Gsp haters is because he beat one of your boys, Hughes or BJ.

GSP will win this fight. Even if he loses, I will still always be a fan of his. Even if he loses after this fight and ends up with TKO in Montreal again, still doesn’t matter. I will always be a true fan of his and what he brings to the fight game.

IM not making excuses. Okay maybe Serra isnt a joke but he aint gonna last long as champ or be in the top5. If it wasnt for TUF this guy would be a thing of the past. So he better be enjoying every second of his time as champ cuz its gona be short no matter who takes it.

More excuses, hep c staff infection, all you fans loved this guy until he got clipped by Kosscheck. I guess that proves how unliked Kosscheck is. He still kicks ass though, St. Pierre better be training hard.

Clipped??? i dont remember Koscheck (notice the one “S” in his name) winning that fight by KO. oh thats right he didnt it went to a decision. Koscheck is lucky he pulled out that fight against Diego it put him up about 5 pegs above where he should really be. So he has no choice but to step his game up but alas he is still gonna get F*ckin devoured by the best in the Division. Sorry its gonna take alot more than a decision win over a sick Diego to sway me even close to believing Kos is top5. And yeah all the Kos fans or Diego haters say excuses excuses what the f*ck ever. Every source says he was sick he was f*cking sick get it got it good. Wether that played a huge role in the fight with Kos no one knows. But from seeing all of Diego’s previous fights and then watching this fight its pretty clear Diego’s game was off. And from the way Diego was fighting Kos should have annihilated him. But he went to a dec with a sick Diego there isnt alot of clout in that i dont care what anyone says. He beat Diego fair and square i know i get that and Diego fans and Diego Haters could argue the point till the end of time and get nowhere.Thats what is propelling people to think Kos is top5 gimmie a break. Kos has some great looking wins over less than stellar competition. The only fight i was impressed by was when he fought Goulet.

There is no doubt GSP is a great fighter. However, he doesn’t seem too strong mentally. He looked very nervous walking into the octagon that night. Hopefully he will be able to handle being a champion again in the future.

True. It would be a shame to waste all of that talent.

Plus if GSP loses to Koscheck he will be Top5 to me. Even if Kos just swings for the fences and wins im not gonna say oh GSP just get caught by a lucky punch or no sh1t like that. A win is a win. Face it Kos hasnt fought anyone with GSP’s skills. GSP has fought wrestlers with decent striking before. When its all said and done and the div is weeded out the 1 and 2 guys are gonna be GSP and Hughes(if in the same class.

St. Pierre is not weak mentally in the sense that he will face any competition no problem, he just thought he had it in the bag, and wasnt in the game 100%. I hope nothing more than to see GSP back at 100% though, cuz when the day comes, I want my boi BJ Penn to be able to say that he beat GSP at nothing less than his best.

GSP will ktfo of Kos’ stupid hair. WARRRRR GSP!!!!!!

I hope GSP teaches him a proper MMA lesson. Hughes loses and gets Lytle, GSP loses and gets Koschek. You can tell who bends over and touches there toes for Dana.

I will not deny Gsp’s talant hes a badass but im tired of his bs excuses, Matt serra walked trough him, It was matts night. stop crying, be a man, learn and come back. As much as i cant stand kos, if Gsp goes in that fight as nervous as he did in the serra fight, homeboys going to have a long night!

Bloodymess doesnt have a clue and is obviously a UFC nub.

Watch his highlights little fella, see how you are supposed to fight in mma.

Nope been watching for awhile, GSP is overrated and thats a fact. just ask anyone who lost a ton of money in vegas in april. And then go talk to a therapist because you have obsessive psychosis if you cant see the truth that he is just another guy. I’m sure Croation guys are having the same little meltdown that all you canadian fans are going through since Cro Cop got introduced to reality…

I hope GSP teaches him a proper MMA lesson. Hughes loses and gets Lytle, GSP loses and gets Koschek. You can tell who bends over and touches there toes for Dana.

So you are saying that you thinkg that KOS is levels above Chris Lytle? I’d have to argue with you there. As a matter of fact, I would say that you have it backwards. I think Chris Lytle is a much better MMA fighter than KOS. If Lytle was in there with Diego instead of KOS, Lytle would have KO’d him for sure (considering the health of Diego).

I don’t necessarily disagree with you ViolentMike. Thats arguably true. However….BloodyMess, saying GSP is overrated is like saying Tim Sylvia is underrated….lol.

GSP = mike tyson..totally agree. He’s a badass until someone stands up to him. Once the going gets rough he folds (Serra). (Like he wanted to against BJ after being dominated in round1)

The truth is, even you GSP hardcore fans are admitting it by saying stuff like “It depends which george shows up!” So reminiscent of people saying “If the real mike tyson, the one that knocked out sphinx shows up he’d ko everyone!” Sad, but true. Talented, but a basket case. Sure, he might win, but I don’t think so. Kos is no pushover, and I guarentee he won’t give up just cause he’s fighting St.pierre..although I think Pierre might melt if kos frusterates him. :)

Iam a huge GSP fan, and no doubt his expressions after the fight come off real fishy. What is the most strange part is why has nobody ever watched the fight over again. He was doing fine until he gets caught in the back of the head while sliping Serra’s punch. Than twice again in the back of the head after his leg gave out near the cage. Its a loss but seeing as how punches to the back of the head are illegal standing or on the ground. Why he needed excusses is a mystery to me….

Thanks for noticing, it felt like I was the only one who saw the fight. I am sure that Serra did not plan those punches to land there ( in fact if you look at the fight he did’nt plan a specific landing for any of his punches.)But accidental or not those punches did clearly land on the back of the head.

GSP is a pu$$y, cant wait for KOS to whip his a$$. Cry more GSP…face it .. you got your ass beat fair and squar, quit making excusses already…

Please just look at the fight again unless you’r blind
