In August.

That should be interesting.....though frankly I was greatly unimpressed by Koscheck's fight with Diego and how he acted afterword ('course Diego acted like a punk at the weighins)

Josh DID act like a degenrate at the end of his fight with Sanchez, but after the way Diego acted at the weigh-ins, it was validation for him I suppose.

I can't stand Koscheck. He's an annoying wrestler, that's it. He's the definition of a punk

CorporalCardinal · April 26th, 2007, 09:25 PM

Him and Tito annoy the hell out of me.

GSP will absolutely ruin him

I sure in the hell hope so, but GSP was supposed to ruin Serra! I don't think that GSP will be screwing off before this fight, which he apparently did before the Serra fight. There's no other explanation and I won't accept that Serra is a superior fighter....

Divide, rumor has it GSP wasn't fully recovered from his injury in the Serra fight.

Guys they arent fighting each other they are fighting other opponents but both are on the card. Other bouts include Tim Sylvia vs. Frank Mir and Joe Stevenson vs. Kurt Pellegrino

UFC 73 July 7th is going to be the best PPV all year, i suggest if you buy one all year that is the one. There are at least 4 fights that could be headliners.
Theres:
Anderson Silva vs. Nate Marquardt
Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (debut and top Heavyweight in the world) vs. Heath Herring
Tito Oritz vs. Rashad Evans (tons of bad blood, Tito called Rashad a Nappy Headed Ho)
Sean Sherk vs. Hermes Franca
Also Stephan Bonnar's return from the steroid suspension

Bonnar's fighting at the Ultimate Fight Night against Mike Nickels.

Otherwise, your spot on about this PPV. It's gonna be one of the better ones of the year.

Also, I'm not sure what your saying about these guys not fighting eachother. Last I heard, from a pretty reliable source who has yet to let me down, the Koscheck- GSP fight is signed, sealed and delivered as is Couture- Gonzaga.

According to my source they are not fighting each other and Bonnar is fighting Nickles at that PPV not at Ultimate Fight Night. The card for Ultimate Fight Night is:

Spencer Fisher vs. Sam Stout
Jon Fitch vs. Roan Carniero
Drew McFedries vs. Jordan Radev
Luigi Fivoranti vs. Forrest Petz
Jason Black vs. Thiago Tavares
Nate Mohr vs. Luke Caudillo
Pete Spratt vs. Tamdan McCrory
Chad Reiner vs. Steve Bruno

Looks like a very uneventful card. The best fighter is Jon Fitch and he isnt even the headliner. I know the UFC is really pushing Fischer but it dosent make any sense to me.

Also on a side note Koscheck and GSP's opponents have yet to be determined so who knows they could fight each other and if that were the case id assume the winner would face the winner of Hughes-Serra which is signed sometime in November or December. They are both filming The Ultimate Fighter 6 right now which feature only welterweights.

It was just announced that they are fighting each other you got some good info Diamondback. Should be an interesting fight, im not a fan of either but ill be pulling for GSP to set up the re-match of him and Hughes for the belt after Hughes beats Serra later this year.

GSP is in a totally different league than Koscheck. Koscheck might be the most boring fighter and the fact that he's a prick doesn't help his cause either. I don't see how Koscheck has any chance at beating GSP. I agree that GSP/Hughes rematch would be great
