Around SBN: How The Kings Beat The Coyotes: Lather, Rinse, Repeat

Yes...I plan to watch GSP vs. Koscheck, the Ric Flair of UFC, and I feel that St. Pierre will win a rugged fight in GSP's hometown of Montreal. If Koscheck does upset GSP in Montreal, it will be as big a loss as I can recall in a fighter's home town ever in UFC. Koscheck has done an amazing job of selling his villain persona on TUF on Spike notwithstanding that no one should think that Josh is more sizzle than steak. This will be a nasty, emotional, tough fight.

Dear Mr Ross, just because you keep repeating something ad nauseum doesn't make it true. I'm surprised he stopped there and didn't call GSP the Bret Hart of UFC. At least that would have been more accurate.

Does UFC even have a Ric Flair type?

The real question is “If Koscheck upsets GSP in Montreal due to ref stoppage, will Herb Dean hear chants of ‘you screwed Georges’ for the next decade and a half?”

Very ric flair like

Extremely Cocky(" Everyone knew i could wrestle, but now Mr. Koschecks learning to be a striker *gasp*" I think he said this in reference to his recent TKO victories prior to GSP 1)

Fakes injuries (Fake knee, etc)

How does that make Josh Koscheck any different from Tito Ortiz? At least Ortiz also has a moniker ending in Boy and dates celebrities. ;-)

Ross is just dumbing it down for his blog readers

A lot of whom only know WWE or Pro Wrestling J.R. has announced. He’s also not as technically savvy as he’d like you to believe calling Hughes’ choke of Almeida a “Front Face Lock” to which I had to go out of my way and correct him, even showing him Billy Robinson demonstrating an actual FFL.

But, he does know the PPV business and knows what sells, broadly speaking.
