“I think he hasn’t seen my fight with B.J. Penn.”
– Former UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre responds to comments from Josh Koscheck that questioned his chin and heart via an MMANews.com interview. “Rush” is alluding to a fight with BJ Penn in which he was beat up bad in the first round but rallied to pull out a split-decision win at UFC 58 in March 2006. St. Pierre and Koscheck will meet at UFC 74: “Respect” on August 25 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, for the right to challenge for the 170-pound title next.

I like the pic. It is gruesome and freakin hilarious at the same time. I seriously am having a hard time choosing the winner. Kosheck isnt as well rounded as GSP. But Kos is confident and GSP is mentally very weak at times. I do think if GSP comes to the fight mentally prepared he should win. But if he has any doubts and gets scared of getting hit with one of Kos’ looping rights then i think Kos could handle GSP like Randy handled Tim.

Please do elaborate… you did put Times with an S. So other than the Serra fight when was he mentally weak?
Admittedly, kos vs. gsp is a nice fight…however, i think that many ppl are severely underestimating gsp’s skill level and well rounded arsenal. I forsee gsp “reminding” the fans why he was the champ…whatever happens that night, a good fighter will walk away a loser that night…
Kos is awesome. He barely beat a sick Sanchez with aproximately 10 landing punches. He can pick up a person and drop them and lay on top of them for any amount of time. If the opponent doesn’t know deffense well Kos just might decide to choke their neck. Kos is what all Ultimate Fighters should be like.It is so exciting to see how versatile he is, how he tricks his opponent to thinking he might do some real fighting but instead he just lays on them. Wow!!! He’ll probably be champ soon.
Good call GSP. Enough said.
I guess we will have to wait until Aug 25! I know I will probably be standing in front of the TV twitching away with the heart beats up over a 100.
I will put my money on GSP with out hesitating. Can I loose the bet? Yes, Can I win? Yes.
We will have to wait and see, we can spend hours elaborating and still be wrong on who we think will win. It will definitely be an entertaining fight.
ther is no way kos is going to beat gsp the fight with sanchez was the worst fight next to silvia /pitbull 3 after those 2 fights i was very disappointed gsp 3:49 first round tko ref stoppage kos blonde to red head
I’m picturing GSP fighting with a vengeance….and all I can picture is GSP vs Matt Hughes 2. Hmmmm……I love GSP’s chances.

GSP vs Hughes I
“Matt Ee-ughes was my idol” -GSP
I can’t stand KOS. I will give him this, he is a very good athlete. If they both fight their ability, I think GSP wins this fight 8 out of 10 times.
This is going to be a war but at the end of the day I just thing that GSP is the more well rounded fighter and will show everyone that his little hick-up with Serra was nothing but that…I think everyone is greatly underestimating and over analyzing GSP. Watch for him to come out and put on a show! I’m predicting a GSP like the one from GSP vs Hughes 2.
If you put Phil Baroni’s cockiness/attitude, with Couture’s work ethic, and add GSP’s skills, you’ll have an unbeatable fighter lol

GSP did pulled out a win against NCAA Div. I National Champion Otto in ADCC tournament. And it was all grappling match.
[quote comment=”116948″]GSP did pulled out a win against NCAA Div. I National Champion Otto in ADCC tournament. And it was all grappling match.[/quote]
And Otto actually beat Koscheck for that Div1 championship.
I mean, GSP has pretty good grappling skills if Kos wants to go for it. Matt Hughes was an excellent wrestler in his own right. So, I’ll put my money on GSP.
Very close fight, both exceptional athletes, but I’m going with Kos. I think people are underestimating him bigtime. That said, I think it’ll be a long night for both.
Analysis is simple for me. Submissions is a non-factor, think we can all agree, highly unlikely for either. With stand up gotta give GSP the slight edge. Not as lopsided to me as some would say, Kos is learning like a sponge, every single fight he improves. Wrestling goes to Kos. I forsee very entertaining scrambles but wrestling and take downs are going to make this fight. Kos by hard fought well deserved dec. My 2 cents.
oh man, i know the caption contest was a while ago but look at georges face, lol.

Stand up a slight edge to GSP??? I believe GSP’s stand up is what is being underestimated. He strikes from all angles, with knockout power…..while at the same time defending the takedown…..remind you of anyone?? (Chuck). Also, its worth mentioning that the fight starts on the feet, so unless Koscheck gets GSP down, wrestling is a non-factor. You just assume its going to the ground, which a lot of times doesn’t happen. Thats aside from the fact that I do not believe Koschecks wrestling is a clearcut advantage over GSP’s. This fight, in many ways, reminds me of Tito and Chuck….Tito being an extremely tough challenger, but not enough tools to get the job done. Thats my opinion.
This will not be even close to a war. Kos is going to find out what being overmatched is all about.
GSP is favored however I would have given Serra even less of a chance than Kos of beating GSP and look what happened there. Kos’ antics are annoying at times but the guy has shown so much improvement since the TUF show how can you not cheer for him? (compared to say… Chris Leben- who hasn’t improved at all).

One thing does come to mind …. How about tapping with 1 second to go in the first round against Hughes. Hughes had the arm for like 1.8 seconds before GSP tapped like a queer bag. Like a point guard in the NBA, you always have to be aware of the clock in a fight. Tapping like that, although it was when GSP was still a lil wet behind the ears, was weak nonetheless.
Josh Koscheck is the best wrestler in the UFC. Who cares what wrestlers GSP has squared off against in the best. When your a NCAA Division 1 National Champion, it means no one is matter than you. This fight will be a scrap with the better scrapper if you will taking it.
[quote post=”2902″]t means no one is matter than you[/quote]
Yeah, whatever he said? Good argument. Concrete thinking.
Kevin.. When Matt Hughes has you in an arm bar it takes about 1 second for him to break your arm.
I will give the point that he did not feel 100% confidant vs matt hughes #1. But shit.. who would when your comming out of another country and fighting your idol in your 3rd UFC fight.
A lot of fighters get psyched out they just act tough and don’t talk about it.
I watched an interview with Couture yesterday talking about how psyched out he was the first time he fought liddell. That kinda shit keeps you on your tows… Not to mention GSP was looking really good until the end of the round in GSP vs Hughes #1.
Leban might not have improved, but the guy never has a boring fight, and he also doesn’t go round thinking the sun shines out of his backside. Seriously, if you went out and you bumped into either of thses two guys I’m sure Leban would have a lot more time for you than Koscheck would.
I think to many people are giving KOS to much credit and hype, He beat diego, so what and he showedd nothing, what was he afraid of Diego’s below par standup. Now he gets GSP and many people think Kos can do it, which he could don’t get me wrong but GSP is alot better than KOS. Yes KOS is a division 1 wrestler but gsp has scene that level of wrestling before(canadian wrestling team) and his standup is above Kos. I really see it being a difficult night for KOS.
I also giggle every time i hear ppl talk about KOS’s striking.. He de almost no damage to Diego last fight and Diego’s striking was abismal at best.
UFC mania does not have a spell check which is why some words do not come out korrectly. Excuse me for not analyzing each word.
Chris Leben loses to Terry Martin then goes on to host a reality TV show with David Hasselhoff
He was psyched out against Hughes the first time. One he couldn’t even look him in the eye during the staredown, two, GSP made a terrible mistake by going for the Kimura without having at least half guard.
I don’t question GSPs confidence or ability. I think he just has a fear of success. When everything is riding on him winning he doesn’t perform well.
In his defense though, I believe this will get better with time.
I also think GSP takes this fight at least 8 out of 10 times. GSP can be a bit inconsistent, but at least on paper he should win this fight. I don’t foresee KOS knocking him out, but if GSP performs poorly, KOS could easily control GSP with some good wrestling.
Standup:
I think GSP has a _huge_ standup advantage. What is with people saying KOS has underrated striking skills? NO! He has very mediocre standing skills. Look at the way he holds his head out like that. That is just asking to be knocked out. Against Diego (who, staph or not, has horrible striking), KOS’s standup was not that great. Combine this with the fact that GSP has outstanding striking, and I think this is a huge advantage for GSP.
Ground:
Obviously KOS is the better wrestler, but I think GSP’s wrestling will be good enough that he can stuff maybe half of KOS’s takedown attempts. Also, during the Diego fight, KOS had one takedown attempt, and while he got the takedown, Diego _immediately_ reversed KOS and put him in a bad situation. Taking into account that GSP has very good BJJ, I can see something similar happening in the fight. On the bottom, GSP has good tools, but I don’t think you can say the same about KOS.
I agree with most of what you say Poppy other than the fact that GSP is unconsistant. Does he has problems to work on? Hell yes. But it’s really hard to find consistantly good and entertaining to watch fighters like GSP.
*Does he have…

GSP has lost twice in the ufc. Both times to opponents he liked. I don’t think it’s anything to do with pressure, or nerves. When he fought hughes the second time theres was more pressure on him,and he came out focused, precise, and aggressive and he even kicked HUGHES in the groin just for good measure. The only man to beat hughes since i can remember. How can u say he has a fear of success. Like tyson in his prime you couldn’t find an opponent who felt confident fighting hughes. GSP was the only legit challenger for Hughes.
He didn’t just beat hughes, he beat him up.

thats just plain out not funny
Sorry “cuts”, but there is no way I am going to believe that GSP is a ‘queer bag”. He is the greatest all around fighter in the division. Mental toughness is shown through the rigorous training he goes through.
Wrestling alone will not win this for Kos. Even if he can take Pierre down, which is an “if”, he has shown in past fights that he can’t do much from someone’s guard. And now he is fighting the top contender.
Say what you want about his fight with Serra because I am pretty sure that wasnt Pierre’s only fight in his career. You have to look at them all and when you do, “queer bag” really shouldnt come to mind.

Wow really? And did you happen to just find that out in the Josh Koscheck thread with the glames behind him? Mark Johanson posted all about the history of their wrestling and thier common oppopent, “NCAA Div. I National Champion Otto”, as you would say - seeing that you don’t know his first name and were too lazy to click the back button on your browser. And Mark had gotten the information a different website, and gave credit where credit was due.
As far as this fight goes, I’m am not a big fan of either fighter, but it is just plain and obvious that GSP is the heavy favorite going into the fight, and the only way I see KOS winning is if he happens to land a ‘Matt Serra’ and follow it up with a few “hamma fist elbow, hamma fist elbow” ’s.

yesterday i was watchin GSP vs Serk, serk had nothing for GSP.
GSP defended so many of his takedowns beautifully. Kos is basically a taller serk. Kos will be outclassed in this fight. If Kos comes to fight he will be TKO’d, if Kos comes out like he did against diego, then GSP will win by unanimous decision. Kos will be exposed for what u is..a wrestler! GSP is great against wrestlers(u mentioned how he beat the only man to ever out wrestle kos in a wrestling/grappling match, Matt hughes, serk…
He is great against pure wrestlers…
I dont c how kos can win except for if he closes his eyes, swings, and luckily connects!
GSP wins 9 out of 10 times!
how do you think kos would fend against hughes not well i would say gsp was very dominant against him in fight 2 serra fight fluke gsp will be the dominant striker both fists and feet
I got my nose broken by a stray elbow in wrestling practice. Didn’t feel very good. I can’t imagine continuing to fight someone like GSP did after BJ broke his nose. That takes balls. How can anyone question GSP’s heart or say he is afraid to get hit?
Everyone saw the Kos and jeff joslin fight…Plain and simple kos cant strike. joslin owned him on their feet, kos only won because he was able to take joslin down and lay on him. At the end of each round joslin was able to put him into a submission but couldnt tap him out as time wouldnt allow for it. You can’t call what did agaisnt Diego striking, that was a very sad display from both ends. Diego didnt do anything, he stood around and kos had to win, judge’s had no other choice. GSP is going to destroy Kos, he’ll prob. have him on his back long before Kos even have a chance to shoot in for a take down. GSP 1st round tko 2:21.
Thanks for the love
I’ve said this many times before but I’ll say it again. I don’t think Kos is at the same level as GSP, but hey maybe he’ll prove me wrong. I just get the feeling the UFC are hyping this match as a superfight which I don’t believe it is. Well we all know Rogan is hyping it up big style but don’t listen to him he gets paid well to say that bs in promos.
So GSP all the way. Of course if I’m wrong then no problem I underestimated Kos but that’s the way I see it based on all of their previous performances.

I dont get the reason your attacking this post when you found the info from the same place. Just because you read something somewhere doesnt mean you have to advertise where you read it everytime you talk about it. you just jumped on it cuz it was a recent post in the Koscheck says GSP has a weak chin and no heart thread. I agree that Mark did post good info and background on the subject. But just because this person got the information from very likely the same place you did is no reason to be so vehement. I dont mean to sound like an a$$hole if i do. I just dont get it i guess. That said GSP is prob gonna take this fight.
Did anyone watch the GSP Trigg fight? Is Frank Trigg not a recognized wrestler? GSP was amazing in that fight. I think GSP is going to take this one.
Mahde Ill take Koscheck and you obviously are taking GSP … Wanna put $50 on it ?
In every match you can have that punchers chance so there is no point in anyone pointing that out since that will make the prediction of any match almost impossible. Excluding punchers chance who can see Kos winning? Not me. GSP has better striking especially if we are talking about more than just hands. Kos has better wrestling but that is neutralised by GSP’s superior BJJ.
I can’t see Kos winning I dont think he is that great to tell you the honest truth, his biggest match-up to date was against Sanchez and altough he did win (which in the end is the ultimate goal) the way he did it doesn’t make me put him on the level of GSP.
If GSP went up against Sanchez I think GSP would of handled him much better than Kos.
GSP to win

With that said, we agree that GSP will dominate DOS. You gotta be a curly-haired-queer or a straight up metrosexual wrestler to think that KOS is going to be able to stop GSP. When you compare the caliber of competition that these two have faced, it is literally laughable!

Thats a two way street. A couple of excuses I see from Koscheck could be didnt see it coming, was that a kick or a punch?, I can’t stand up with this guy, I couldnt take him down and I broke my lucky pick before the fight.
I don’t really understand this “GSP was mentally weak” in regards to his loss to Serra. When I watched that fight, GSP got hit hard and then followed up on. He didn’t appear to be running away squealing like a girl from Serra to me in any part of that round, he just lost. Excuse it away all you want, but Serra took the fight fair and square that night. (and I love GSP)
And for the record, I think GSP is going to win over Kos.

By no means did i know about Otto and i was one of the ones that posted that Mark J posted some good info. I was just commenting on the fact that we all didnt know about it until yesterday so when epps and just1fix just reiterated the info i dont see how they were acting like know it alls or anything. We all get are info from somewhere and most of the time not surprisingly its from the same places or websites. And dont worry about upsetting me i just didnt understand. But yeah i think Kos’s attitude aside he’s a great athlete but GSP has all the skills that Kos is just now starting to hone. You deff cant compare their past competition. Kos has a chance but thats about it. Maybe he can sneak in a good punch or come out with the windmill and pray that he makes contact. If Kos didnt talk so much sh!t he might get more respect but no more than he’s due which at this point in his career shouldnt be a whole lot.
GSP has got Mad stand up skills! but i would’nt be suprised if he layed Koscheck down and beated him into oblivion! Look back at the Sherk fight….

That’s how I’d see it playing out, not necesarily going to go that way. Koscheck is every bit as athletic as Pierre, I don’t know why poeple don’t see that, he’s improving every fight in standup. He’s one of those wrestlers who transitions very well into MMA. Quick, explosive, athletic, and confident, I believe we’re going to see GSP look frusterated with Kos. Yes, I said slight advantage in stand up, haha, who knows though, maybe GSP will KO him but I doubt it.
Kos has no advantage anywhere, on the feet, ground, clinch, or anywhere inbetween. As somebody already alluded to GSP handled the div. 1 guy in an all grappling match, the man who beat Kos to win the div 1 match. Kos is DONE. If GSP loses it will be a crazy fluke.
GSP is NOT mentally weak. It’s already over. And KEVIN KELLY better not disappear when Kos gets crushed.

GSP vs Hughes I
“Matt Ee-ughes was my idol” -GSP[/quote]
Man, you can’t forget.. GSP was all of 22 years old or something like that when he fought Hughes the first time. GSP spoke the truth like he always does - we are just getting sick of hearing him say the same thing. English is his second language so things can get lost in the translation.
All his talking will happen soon enough. It won’t be with his mouth. KOS is in for something special. Ask Trigg or Hughes.

I agree with you Anomaly, dominates all areas, and yes, KEVIN KELLY better not dissapear after. He wouldn’t accept LIKWIDS offer
Found your follow up extremely hilarious Mahde, who has a lucky pick these days anyway haha. Koscheck via unanimous decision, no matter how close it actually is, he wins.
Matt Hughes versus Josh Koscheck will be a street fight that may be sloppy at times but boy is it going to be exciting. Can’t wait for it. Basicaaly means GSP will have a re match with Serra for possiblr # 1 contender rights.
Jon Fitch versus Diego Sanchez will detemine the # 2 contender

Kos = (a taller) sherk
and we all know how serk did against GSP
I smell Trouble for Kos!
Kos can go for all the take downs he wants! Cuz he just might eat a knee in the forehead! or better his nose! Unlike Sherk eating it 3 times in the head, Crotcheck is going down!
Hes just talking shit to hype himself up! He knows he dose’nt have wat it takes to win!!

Kos’s striking isnt even close to GSP’s its been getting better but not better than GSP’s yet if ever.
please…. GSP only fights well when an opponent won’t push the pace. The game plan that serra put forth and hughes also. St. Pierre will wilt under an onslaught of aggression. he wanted to quit after bj penn roughed him up in round one. Also he doesn’t even look the same as far as his build and strength/overall conditioning.
Don’t even get started with sherk. Of course he couldn’t take down a true 170 pounder with those little alligator juice puppy arms. This will not be the case with Koscheck, elbows will be dropping and GSP will be on queer street.
