“I’m in the best shape of my life. Physically, mentally — everything is good right now…. It [Josh Koscheck] is a great challenge. It may be the toughest fight of my life, but I’m in great shape for it. Mentally, physically — I have no issues. Everything is going well in my life.”
– After his disappointing title loss to Matt Serra at UFC 69, former welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre tells CBSSportsline.com that all of his physical, mental and personal issues that he claims affected him in that fight are now fixed. And, he is more prepared than ever before for his upcoming fight with Josh Koscheck at UFC 74: “Respect” on August 25.

I do feel that Koshceck is not on the same level as GSP skill wise. But Seems to be mentally stronger. If you can beat Matt though he should be able to crush Josh. Allthough that’s what everyone said about Serria.
If GSP is serious and he has gotten back to the basics and what got him to the top…….KOS is in for a long night! …… Or short night if GSP treats him like Hughes!
Dont get me wrong I think KOS is a great fighter but I dont think he can handle GSP if he is indeed fighting at his peak!
I think GSP will take this in the second round TKO!
This MIGHT be the fight of the night!
I wonder if GSP is serious when he says that Kos may be the toughest fight of his life? How can he consider Kos a stronger opponent than Matt Hughes and BJ Penn?
isnt that the same thing he said before Serra knocked him out ?
KOS has better take downs, and a better stand up than Matt Hughers in my opinion. Once they are on the ground though, Hughes is a freak of nature, and KOS is dwarfed by Hughes GnP.
I think he is mentally trying to prepare himself he admitted himself he had issue’s when it came to his mental preparation for a title fight especially against a weaker opponent(serra). This is also a weaker opponent but the mind can’t tell the difference between true and false if you believe what your saying!

…” Cut & Paste ” ..that is the same thing he said going into the Serra fight..I’ve learned let ur fighting do ur talking..for his first title defense..It was BIG talk small fight.
Kos is on the same playing field as GSP when it comes to physical attributes..he is a game fighter..this fight, depending who shows up for this fight..should be a WAR.

B/c Kos’ wrestling ability is 2nd to none in the UFC. He might not be able to stop his takedowns.
Did he or did he not say the same exact thing when he fought Serra?
[quote comment="111907"]Did he or did he not say the same exact thing when he fought Serra?[/quote]
True, but he also said the same thing before his 2nd fight w/ Hughes, so I can never tell anymore which GSP is going to show up b/c he seems to say the same thing before every fight now.
[quote comment="111907"]Did he or did he not say the same exact thing when he fought Serra?[/quote]
Practically word for word, although he left out the parts where he says he is going to give 0, leave it all in the ring and let his fighting do the talking.
Dang it, that was supposed to say one hundred and ten percent. Damn stupid non-alphanumeric characters ruining my jokes.
After the fight GSP may say, ” I did not take the fight as seriously as I should have.” Or we could hope he wakes the hell up and knocks Koschek into next Thursday. I really prefer this scenario not the latter.
GSP is an extremely dangerous opponent. I do think his mouth and cockyness tend to get the best of him. If he wins, I hope he doesnt talk trash, if he loses I hope he doesnt talk trash. That a problem with alot of fights anymore. They all say somthing like “Well im coming off an injury”, or “I wasnt
prepared enough”. It bull, just be a man and say somthing like chuck “You know, I got caught” or he showed up I didnt” , or “guess I need to train harder”.
GSP is gonna whip his ass. The only way Kos will win is if GSP does a mistake……like forgetting to train

I guess we’ll find out when the fight is over. I’d like to see this fight last a little while, then end with a GSP victory. A victory against either Matt for the title would be awesome for his career and his confidence because it would either mean avenging an embarrasing loss or winning the rubber match between him and the #1 contender.
I hope Kos kicks his ass.
He is in the best shape of his life, mentally and physically, just ask the people locked up in his basement.
This guy loses, he is gonna crack…
I’m going to pre-empt the posts that I know will be coming in shortly to this thread by saying the following:
Whether you like GSP or not, nobody can define him by his loss to Serra. Just like nobody can define you by whatever the last mistake or lapse of judgement you had(yes, the same you whose reading this post right now).
You see, GSP is as good as they say he is, hugger or not. Unlike many other fighters people are quick to annoint as the “best”, GSP earned any and all hype surrounding him by SOUNDLY defeating the absolute BEST in his weight class (sherk, penn, hughes, trigg, karo). This applies not only to GSP but to any other fighter in any other weight class who has done the same.
I had a really bad nightmare yesterday….
It started out with me ordering the wrong version of UFC74.. I accidentally ordered the French version (i live in montreal).. So the announcers spoke french.. (YIKES!!)…
And the dream ended with GSPvsKOS going to split descision.. with KOS winning.
Then i woke up..
lol
Heard that before, then after the fight “Oh I didnt train that hard and I was injurd…blah blah blah” (after he lost to Serra). Same always happens with Tito. Tito and GSP are 2 of my favourite fighters but I wish they would just shut up with statements like that followed by excuses.

This is good to hear. I just hope it’s the truth and not all talk. UFC 69 he was claiming good conditioning, good traininig, good focus, and it turned out to be fabricated

What do Kos’ punctuation skills have to do with anything?
GSP is awesome, no doubt. There’s some negative sentiment b/c of the loss hangover. BUT!!
I HATE COMMENTS LIKE THIS!!! What else is he supposed to say?? “I haven’t really been taking this seriously and I’ve been eating mostly deep fried foods and drinking lots of beer. I did manage to go for a walk last week, I hope that’ll do for my cardio.”
As for injuries, any fighter that would admit in an interview to being hurt has obviously been hit in the head too many times.
GSP just sounds like a sports cliche by recycling his pre-fight speeches. Maybe it’s the language barrier. Anyway, it’s all the more puzzling to me why a great, engaging personality like Rampage isn’t getting more publicity.

I don’t think he means he’s the toughest OPPONENT, but his toughest FIGHT considering he’s coming off the most devastating loss of his career.

/agree Karo is a beast.
I’m not sure who i want to win or who actually will win between GSP and Kos…I like them both. Only prediction i have is that it will be a great fight
Thats BS that he didn’t train for serra… didn’t he say something like he only trained for 2 weeks or whatever?
I can’t stand KOS though, so I still want GSP to win
but i have a lot less respect for GSP after he made excuses post- serra fight.

What are you talking about? He said he didnt train very hard but still gave props to Matt Serra.
I wonder what Kos’s game plan is for this fight. Try to wrestle knowing GSP beat Hughes, the most dominant wrestler, or strike against him as did Serra, knowing GSP is much more dangerous on his feet. And when I recall Kos’s jab-fest against Diego, as if he didnt want to mix it up. I just don’t think that will fly against GSP. Anyone know a winning gameplan or what would give him the best chance. He needs to leave it all in the octagon or he is already beat.

Maybe not best in the world but definately top 5. Theres no way you could disagree with that. I’m not trying to get you to like the guy but you gotta admit he’s one of the better all-around fighters in MMA today.
I want GSP to destroy Koshcheck sooo bad,out of all the fighters in the UFC Koshcheck and Rashad Evans are my leastest favourites,
GSP will crush Koshcheck by the blood of 10,000,000 peasents I swear it!
I am sick of these guys saying that it’s the hardest fight of their lives or that they aren’t taking this fight lightly and trained even harder. Then you find out after they lose they took the fight lightly and they barely trained. DON’T BE CONDESCENDING! JUST TELL US THAT YOUR TRAINING HARD AND YOU LOOK FORWARD TO KICKING THEIR ASS. WE KNOW YOU ARE BETTER AND WE KNOW YOU KNOW YOUR BETTER THEN THE OPPONENTS, DON’T BE CONDESCENDING….

Kos simply needs to play to his strength which is wrestling. It’’s the best chance he’s got against specifically GSP & his striking is crisp enough to set-up the shoot.
I’m both an admitted Kos fan as well as a GSP fan but GSP needs this win where Kos can walk away with an “L” against GSP & wear it proudly as long as he puts up a fight. After GSP’s loss to Serra, it’s a must win for him or it’s back down to the bottom of the 170 pound ladder.

For one, Hughes didn’t use his wrestling in the fight he lost to GSP. He wanted to win the fight standing and it didn’t work. Two, Koscheck standing is a counter-fighter and since Diego gave him nothing to work with, nothing really happened in that fight. (That is not a defense of that bore-fest, btw). GSP on the other hand will have a ton of offense and I expect Kos to look a little more lively and certainly showing more than his jab. I think his game plan is probably to play it cautious, but hopefully it will still be an exciting fight.
What excuse will this Frenchy have this time?

Kos’s physical attributes may be the same as GSP but GSP is a more well rounded fighter than KOS. Also some of the fighters that GSP has beated were better fighters than KOS is. GSP is pissed off at the way his last fight went down and is training hard for KOS and when the fight comes the old GSP will be back and he will smash JOSH.

No lets talk about something we dont agree on like Tito is a pu$$y or Rampage’s chain makes him look like a lil sally gurl?
I have a feeling KOS will come into the start of this fight with the same strategy he did against Diego then swith to his bread n butter if things start going bad. This should be an exciting fight with both fighters being extremely talented, explosive and have excellent cardio. IMO KOS has better takedowns/wrestling then Hughes. My pick is KOS split decision

I know he gave him props in the days immediately following the fight but I remember something coming up about him saying he trained for only a short while or something…
could be wrong.
I’m going to be there live for this one, making the trip down to Vegas from Canada…my first UFC live and I can’t wait.
Unfortunately, the last time, he let all the positive feedback about him get to his head (along with a Serra Punch), but things will be different when he gets the title back down the road.
It was a little disappointing to hear St. Pierre’s comments and excuses after the Serra fight but it was his most devastating loss to date and he is only 26. Certain aspects of Serra’s rebuttal was pretty weak imo as well.
GSP will go straight to the title and will keep it for a long while. He’s learned from his mental mistakes and I think we will see a return of the St. Pierre of old. Think of what happened after the initial Hughes loss.
No matter what happens, win or lose, UFC or TKO, it doesn’t matter, I’m always gonna be a true GSP fan.
GSP for Prime Minister: “I will run the country ‘fairly squarely’.
[quote comment="111889"]isnt that the same thing he said before Serra knocked him out ?[/quote]
Something along those lines
All fighters in welter weight division fighting at 100% body, mind and soul.
It comes down to GSP and BJ Penn joint 1st and Matt Hughes third
A good fight I think but not a super fight like they’re making out. Is Kos that good?…S’pose time will tell.
When can we get some fighters in the lightweight division, and middleweight division. Henderson should be fighting at middleweight, lets get shinya akoi, takanori gomi, kazou Misaki, Dennis Kang, Paulo Filho, “Mach” Sakurai lets getem all over here. Not to mention Nick Diaz(ater the bullshit suspension). I also want to see Arona, Rogerio, Sokoudjoi, Wanderlei, josh barnett, Yoshida, and of course Fedor. Dana white has done a great job so far, but come on, plentty of talent left to sign still. Hope he continues the trend of announcing new fighters at almost every Pay Per View.
By the way, can anyone tell me when some new Pride dvds will be released (shockwave 2006, bushido survival, 2006 absolute grand prix, pride 33?

Weigh out Matt Hughes and Matt Serra, there’s a huge comparison there. He bought into his own fight, even trained with Serra, He would’ve known exactly what level Serra was at, at the time.
He took the Matt for granted and got wooped. He trained for Hughes. Watch his first MMA fight with Ivan Menjivar, he was getting wooped, Serra focused straight up on Striking and caught a not so sharp GSP.
I guess Liddell aint shit either, or sorry not elite. The guy is only 25 with 2 losses, whoopty doooo we aint talkin bout Mike Tyson, Matt Hughes got served by BJ.
The difference is whether or not GSP will allow his last loss define him or act as a negative turning point in his career.
Ease up on the quick to judge, we’re talking about MMA here….soooooo unpredictable
it’s unbeleivable how one punch can change things…
GSP become a better fighter after his first lost to Matt Hughes.
The guy is a trooper! With too much talent!!

I pretty much agree with your whole analysis on the hughes fight, as well as the fact that Kos n GSP should be a very exciting fight, that GSP should win.
It would be terrible if GSP comes out looking like Arlovski did after his 1st loss against Tim Sylvia. GSP should be ok. GSP ground and pound 2nd round.
Is the Pittbull ever gonna get back to his old self?
Don’t forget, English is GSP’s second language so he does not want another message to get lost in the translation. He is trying to pay respect to his opponent before the fight as he always does – it just sounds repetitive and simple.
Anyhooo, KOS is in for the experience of his life. GSP is a man on a mission with something to prove. Look at what happened the last time he was in this position. GSP is going to put on a clinic and put those doubts to rest about his heart. And, we will see GSP/Hughes III in early 2008.

Ya , great fighters like Fedor that can’t finish the best guys (decision wins aren’t as dominant as you like to think). GSP finishes his peers in dominant fashion. You must have missed Nog getting KTFO by a guy that is too dumb to finish a fight that he already won. Fedor got beat in 17 seconds ,oh maybe he had a bad night like GSP. I know it was a cut ,but that is why they stop the fight because you WILL get KTFO when you can’t see. Fedor wins by decision and GSP finishes. Who is more dominant?
[quote post="2824"]Josh Koscheck via unanimous decision no questioning that ! [/quote]
There is plenty of questioning that.
I agree that it’s going to be an awesome fight, both are pure athletes, the type who can excell in any sport really. I’d have to give it to Kos though. I think he’s better at wrestling and he’s obviously improved his standup since TUF. He’s only getting better. People give GSP a huge standup advantage, but I just think everyone is underestimating Kos.
I actually like GSP more as a person, but as a fighter I’d have to go with Kos, I can understand why someone would go with GSP, but my two cents is Kos by dec.
This is going to be a great war. GSP is going to come in strong and clean out the welter weight division again. This fight is a 1st rd KO for GSP! WAR GSP!!!
You know, people focus too much on the whether someone wins or loses. You lose once and suddenly you’re shit? Come on. Gsp is an exciting fighter and I would personally like to see him on every card win or lose, because I just love watching the guy fight , same with LIddel among many, many other fighters. And as for the pomme de Terra Serra, how can anyone say GSP took him seriously. did you see how many sloppy high kicks gsp threw? Who does that when they take someone seriously? Looking forward to this fight, hopefully georges unorthadox striking will neutralize Kos boring tactics and we’ll see a good fight.
As much as I dislike Koscheck there is no doubting his talent and skill. This is definately going to be a tough fight. Either way, I hope GSP does a Frank Trigg on him and totaly wipes the floor with him. Josh Koschek is a cocky arrogant w’nker already, could you imagine what he would be like if he won. Kick his head off GSP!

Did you not see the Iceman against Rampage? It’s MMA and anyone can get caught on the button on a given night.
You know how to stop KOS take downs? Take him down. GSP is bigger and stronger. I think GSP needs to take KOS down and work his GnP. If he does this he could stop the fight in the first or second round and shut that goofy KOS up.
