I think Koscheck is gonna get beaten very badly in this fight. GSP has got a load to prove, and he is simply a more talented fighter.

Exactly, his job and rep are on the line I would say that is more pressure than a title fight. I think its going to be too close to call.

I am still trying to figure out how GSP is going to be "scared shitless of Koscheck" @ UFC 74? I think people are taking too much out of the whole him being nervous @ UFC 69 because he is a young kid and it was his first title defense and I think Matt Serra is underrated in my opinion, but back on topic I think GSP takes this one in late 1st early 2nd rnd.

given koscheck's elusiveness, wrestling, and improved striking I'd say he has a chance, and a decent one at that. I'd give koscheck a much better chance than I gave Serra. I just think that GSP is too strong and too talented to lose this fight. I want a domination, involving Koscheck with a swollen face, bloody nose, and wobbly, and GSP looking fresh on his feet. I'd like to see GSP win by high kick, just becuz I like high kick finishes...

Honestly, who doesn't love a good high kick finish? Mirko is by far my favourite fighter, and I even loved that kick by Gonzaga.

Head kicks just rock....oh and gsp via 2nd round T(KO)

For some reason your average MMA fan seems to have the memory of a goldfish. They seem completely unable to think of a fighter in terms of his entire career and not just his last fight. Yes George St. Pierre F'ed up badly against Matt Serra and he deservedly lost. But to question his character and "mental toughness" is laughable. What happened when he lost to Matt Hughes? Did he crumble and breakdown? No, he trained harder and came back and anhilated him. All this talk about GSP possibly not having what it takes to be a champion is nothing but hype. It's propaganda designe dto make people like the ones in this thread believ that Josh Koscheck actaully stands a chance against GSP. Because if you didnt believ it waht would be the point.

Here's what's gong to happen. GSP is going to massacre Kos. He's going pick him apart and knock him out in the forst round. Then we can all enjoy threads about how awesome GSP is again because the all of goldfish will have n
othing but praise for him.
you see i said that gsp is going to massacre serra and I ate my words after.

the fact is that koscheck has the tools to make this a very boring and uneventful fight. If he can take GSP down, and hold him down (I doubt he can, but you never know), then Koscheck wins by LnP UD. I think GSP wins this fight 4 times out of 5. With the 5th being a LnP decision or a "well placed punch" (NOT LUCKY) KO.

That was a dumb ass article
"Koscheck, a fighter who has an inane ability of making good fighters look bad?"
That was one of the most stupid thing that I have ever heard. Also KOS being ab le to GNP or get mount o GSP is a very bold and almost carzy thing to say

brief has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Kos is going to realize that the only time that he isn't getting hurt is when he blankets GSP. So he is going to do just that, the whole fight, for the win.
