He put so much effort into getting around the ref to get that shot in. ;D

;D
Most def. His rematch with GSP will be 10x ;D I predict an even more lopsided 2nd fight as Kos will leave himself open a lot when he attempts to strike with GSP. We might see GSPs 1st KO in a while.
-
LOL at how the Canadian crowd booed Kos for his takedowns and control when their hero GSP does the same damn thing to win fights.
-
I like how he totally faked the knee to the head hahah whatever!!!

Exactly!!

That blow almost came within a few inches of almost hitting him.
He showed great heart coming back from that in my opinion.

whatever. ...that faking shit goes on in every sport, just to gain an edge. Happens in hockey, football etc. Smart move IMO if he coulda gotten the point in the end. Its all about the win

It wasn't even the knee they showed...It was Daley's right knee that hit him.
If you look at the very beginning of the clip they show you will see it. Besides Koscheck claimed it was his right eye that was hurt.

He really earned the name the blanket.
-
He faked the knee to the head, jut as he faked the eye poke against Rumble. Not sure why he does this ???

He seems to always do this when someone with superior striking to his puts him in a corner, he gets a breather and than shoots a huge takedown. At least he finished the Johnson fight though, he didn't seem like he was trying to advance his position at all against Daley. I think that Thiago fight really screwed up his confidence in his strikes, as soon as he gets hit now he does something to avoid a stand up confrontation, it's too bad he resorts to puss tactics like that instead of changing levels and shooting off the bat.

GSP is going to destroy him.

If GSP gets hit, anything can happen. His chin is not granite...

Can someone explain to me why Koscheck wasn't DQ'd in both fights and James Irvin was against Alessio Sakaria or whatever his name is?

DQ'd for what? ???

Exactly.
I see this fight being a tough challenge for gsp. I think it will go the distance and may be a little boring at times.. but still, a tough fight.
GSP isn't gonna "kill" Koscheck by any means.
-
Koschecks' striking is beyond awful.
-
Exactly.

This is going to go exactly like the first one. GSP may try to stand and strike, but most likely it will be a wrestling match with GSP throwing a punch and kick here and there.
No matter what...it will be boring.
You got two of the best at LNP....snoozefest for sure.
GSP is very much like Koscheck...GSP is just 100x better at everything ;D

Yeah, i agree.. but i think Kos has improved his striking a ton sinch the first meeting.. and willl go into this with a difference game plan. I'm rooting for Kos .

Hopefully you are right...I would like to see them stand, but we all know GSP likes to play it safe. Plus GSP's striking is better as well.
I like GSP, but after he was caught greasing, plus the way he fights so cautiously, I wouldn't mind seeing Koscheck win.
It's always good when things get mixed up.
-
Unless KOS gets a lucky punch, I really dont see how he wins.
KOS's subs stink. His striking is sub-par compared to GSP.
As far as wrestling goes, GSP is as strong or stronger than KOS and can out blanket KOS if he needs to.
-
This will be a very interesting fight. The first time they met, KOS was taken by surprise by GSPs wrestling. This time, he will come prepared for that. If they are able to nullify each other's wrestling, it will be a standup fight. While I think GSPs standup is better, I feel like GSP is not very confident standing up and that could play a factor.
-
Yes.
And, i was really impressed with Kos' standup in his fight against Rumble. Really sharp and skilled i though.
I think this is one hell of a fight coming up.. and it seems as if Kos is really confident.
-
DQ'd for what? ???
Pretending to get poked in the eye to get a breather. I dont know what the rule is, but the guy who fought Irvin got the win when Irvin pulled that crap the last time he fought.

The Sakara vs Irvin fight was ruled a TKO due to Irvin not being able to continue due to a punch. Irvin thought it was a poke, but it was shown to be a legal punch. There was no type of DQ involved. When a fighter can't continue based on their own admission, it is considered a TKO. Good call in this fight.
I do think Koscheck played the knee up a lot, but there was contact from Daley's knee to Koscheck's head. That is why he was not DQ'd. Because the contact had no real significance, no point was deducted.

The replays showed no touching with the one knee of daley... but wasn't the OTHER knee that hit? The one the cameras seem to not have gotten?

Regardless of what any of us think we saw...Daley had all intentions of landing that knee. Even if Koscheck was faking it and got a free breather and almost a point deducted, Daley should play buy the rules and should have never attempted the knee.
Daley's lack of composure ultimately cost him his career.
-
Umm Ok-- He wanted to land the knee but didn't-- but because he wanted to, it's ok for his opponent to pretend he was hit illegally to take a 5 minute breather?
I'm usually pretty quiet about you being a UFC dicklicker, but your rationalization here is bordering insanity. Let me guess, Koscheck is in the UFC and Daley isn't, therefore Daley is a can and Koscheck didn't do anything wrong?

There was contact to Koschecks head. Although it grazed his head there was contact. End of story.
Why should Koscheck be punished? No point was deducted?
So now you are using the dick N ball talk too?
Are you mad I proved you wrong about Irvin?
-
You didnt prove me wrong. I asked a question about why the Irvin fight was stopped. Your explanation for Koschecks broadway worthy performances in his last two victories is silly to say the least.
Next I think that if you throw an illegal strike and it misses, the contact the wind makes with the other fighters hair is enough to stop the fight and deduct a point.

Fighters should compose themselves enough to not throw blatant knees to the head at 100% while a guy is down. PERIOD.
It's not like it was an accidental groin kick or glancing strike to the back of the head. It was an attempt to knee his head off.
Besides, they have replay to avoid any unnecessary points from being deducted, just like in the Koscheck/Daley fight.

So "attempting" to do something that was unsucessful gives the fighter who was "almost" struck illegally the right to take a few minutes off?
Why stop there? How about all fighters are given 5 minute breathers anytime they are "almost" knocked out, but the shots that "almost" knocked them out failed to connect?

If someone attempts a knee to the head of a downed opponent, and it makes contact, no matter how small the contact may be, caution should be taken. Fighter safety should always come first.
I agree that Koscheck possibly exaggerated, but he also admitted to Mirgliota that it didn't do much damage when he stood up. Maybe he was stunned by it and reacted, who knows...
I personally feel that Koscheck was stunned by it, or the attepmt, and acted up to try and get a point more then it was an attempt at a breather.
Either way it was meaningless to the fight and no point was deducted.
Think about it, if Koscheck wanted an breather, Daley got one too. No real advantage.

I still dont see how Kos beats GSP.

And no one saw how Serra did either.. or how BJ lost to Edgar or how etc. etc.

That right there is what makes this sport so great. Anyone can win on any given day.
Styles, technique, and a master game plan go a long way.
Just ask Greg Jackson.

I meant aside from a freak punch like Serra.
