"One that would be big for my heart and soul would be Josh Koscheck. The number one question that everyone always asks me is, ‘When are you going to kick that Josh Koscheck's ass?' So hopefully, maybe in June or July, we can go ahead and set that fight up."
"The Nightmare," unsurprisingly, wants to avenge his miserable-looking, staph infection-induced unanimous decision loss to Josh Koscheck at UFC 69: "Shootout" back in April 2007 now that he's snapped a two-fight losing skid. Sanchez recently defeated David Bielkheden via technical knockout at UFC 82: "Pride of a Champion." For "Kos" and Sanchez this would be their third encounter if it happens -- Sanchez topped Koscheck in an exhibition match on The Ultimate Fighter (TUF). However, Koscheck's contract is up and he will need to sign an extension before any bouts including him are booked inside the Octagon.
