US vs Can UFC 124 Koscheck vs St. Pierre

[Assistanc3]

Koscheck vs St. Pierre is the main event for this Saturdays UFC 124. After the two were coaches in the Ultimate Fighter 12 competition (where teams of fighters compete to land a job with the UFC) the war of words from the American Josh Koscheck never let up.

Canadian MMA Georges St. Pierre will again be defending his welter weight belt in this rematch (who some may argue Koscheck doesn't deserve) in the octagon has kept his composure. GSP has a reputation and image he wants to maintain and believes the battle should be left in the ring.

The fight takes place in Montreal Canada with a projected record crowd of 21,000.

who's your pick between Koscheck vs St. Pierre

[Ravensfan929]

I honestly dont think Koscheck can win this fight and i think GSP will shut him up when its all said and done.

[Ravensfan929]

This fight is heading into round 5 and GSP has dominated so far and Koscheck needs a KO or he lost this fight.

[Ravensfan929]

Its over GSP dominated this fight from start to finish winning by unanimous decision 50-45 on all 3 scorecards, he had Koschecks right eye swollen badly from the beginning of the fight and he didnt let up and kept go at him and threw a ton of jabs that landed.

Assistanc, did u watch this fight also? it was pretty 1 sided as i expected it to be coming into the fight.

[Assistanc3]

yes was sick eh almost looked fixed :/

[Ravensfan929]

lol not fixed, just that GSP was too much for him, i never really thought at all that Koscheck had a chance, unless he sum how hit him wit a miracle overhand right. There was alot of hype to this fight but i knew it would be that way and i would of been shocked if Koscheck would of won.

I had no doubt GSP would win
but the politics in Ontario Canada would favour GSP wining financially

Rogers Centre, projected location of the first MMA fight in Ontario
the March 17, 2002 WrestleMania X8 event gathered 68,237 fans which will get shattered with a UFC event, current UFC attendance record was last night at the Bell Centre ~22,000

Could you imagine 60,000 - 70,000 fans chanting GSP? was crazy with 20K

Yea they love him there and rightfully so it is his hometown, Koscheck has gotten alot better since he 1st arrived but he isnt on GSP's level yet.
