This is one of the match ups on the fight card for UFC 74 RESPECT. I'm going to give you my opinion on the outcome of this fight and why and think its going to turn out that way and i would greatly appreciate it if you left me a comment and told me your opinion.
First off i want to start by saying that i think this is a very well deserved fight for Josh Koscheck, however i don't think this is a very good match up for George St Pierre. I'm not trying to bad talk or take anything away from the ability or skills that Koscheck possesses, but this is not a good match up at all for St Pierre. Both Koscheck and St Pierre have fought about the same amount of fights in the UFC, however the only real good strenght that Koscheck has is wrestling. Yes he has improved his stand up skills, and we got a glisp of that in his fight against Diego Sanchez, however he hasn't improved enough to beat St Pierre. Josh Koscheck has an overall MMA record of 11-2, and 7-1 in the UFC with his only loss coming from Drew Ficket in the third round. George St Pierre has an overall MMA record of 13-2, and 7-2 in the UFC with his only two losses coming from the current welterweight champion Matt Serra and former welterweight champion Matt Hughes. The reasons i don't think Josh Koscheck will be able to beat George St Pierre is because the skills, ability, and experience that St Pierre has far surpasses what Koscheck has. Koscheck has had eight fights in the UFC the only impressive fight he has is his win against Sanchez. St Pierre on the other hand has had nine fights in the UFC with impressive wins over Karo Parisyan, Jason Miller, Frank Trigg, Sean Sherk, BJ Penn, and Matt Hughes. St Pierre is without a doubt one of the most athletic fighters in the UFC, he has the ability to dominate almost any fight. Koscheck just doesn't have the experience to beat St Pierre however we have seen some serious upsets lately in the UFC so i may be eating my own words, but we'll see.
