GSP has no desire to finish a fight ever again.

 

[EraldoCoil]

This is better than a ko or sub.....straight up embarrassing and demoralizing someone.

 

[BSsBrolly]

LMAO, Koscheck does not like people touching that eye!

 

[Instro]

GSP needs to finish. He has quite a few opportunities.

Probably, but I imagine GSP is enjoying embarrassing him.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

I'm sorry but when a guy is fighting with one eye it's time to stop.

Pffffffffffft you never watch ROCKY?

 

[purg3]

this is just sad now

 

[snack]

That eye is messed.

 

[sooperkool]

Cant believe this is going to a 5th round. This is why I hate watching GSP fight. Kos has one eye and a potentially bad foot and GSP wont knock out or choke out this dude. He's just playing it safe, take him out and go to Tim Horton's or something. And don't say he's trying to punish Kos because he's not...

 

[bishoptl]

That eye is completely buggered. How on earth did he get a title shot with these kind of mechanics - is GSP that much better and exposing him, or did Josh just build a record on also-rans?

Men against boys up in here

 

[BamYouHaveAids]

GSP has no desire to finish a fight ever again.

Seriously he is landed 100% of his strikes, Kos isn't returning anything, and he is still just peppering him with jabs...

 

[BrettWeir]

 

[dream]

When I say Kos is terrified of getting taken down, I should add that GSP seems terrified of getting caught too.

 

[Beardz]

Just throw the damn towel...

He is pretty much the #1 contender. Anyone else would look the same against GSP.

 

[BobTheFork]

It's like a bullfighting match.
Win or lose, I just wanted to see Josh mangled and beaten.
Thank you GSP

 

[ryan-ts]

Pffffffffffft you never watch ROCKY?

Good point, anything is possible!

 

[Brinbe]

Why y'all baggin on the guy winning? It's not as easy it seems to just end someone, especially when that person is being tentative as fuck. And I don't blame him playing it a bit safe.

 

[sooperkool]

Really... GSP has always looked good standing. Minus Serra. This just shows more of it!

If it was really good, he'd use it more. He doesn't because thats not his strength, its a good plan for tonight because Kos lacks rounding and he has a 3 inch reach advantage.

 

[radrelic]

Silva vs GSP already


come the fuck on dana

Silva vs GSP already


come the fuck on dana

and then we all sleep

 

[Pristine_Condition]

Least interesting fight of the night.

No shit. GSP has been fighting a half-blind man for four rounds, and hasn't done anything to put a finish together.

 

[Valkyr Junkie]

Good point, anything is possible!

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then!

 

[bishoptl]

flipping pancakes now...

And George is 4 years younger than Kos :lol

 

[BobTheFork]

I can't wait to see the fight stats jab count.

 

[Pristine_Condition]

Way to finish him GSP. Throw more jabs. Yawn.

 

[BSsBrolly]

His wrestling is on another level. Why use stricking whne you wresltling is even better? GSP outclasses everyone in every area. Best WW of all time easily.

edit: god damn I'm drunk, look at all those spelling errors...

 

[Brinbe]

Utter domination, and I enjoyed every second... Hope GSP's in good enough shape from this for the Toronto card!

Wonder where Kos goes from here :lol

 

[NomarTyme]

I knew Koscheck was all talk with that hate. :lol

 

[BamYouHaveAids]

Wow, Kos must be the toughest man in the world--there probably isn't a man alive that could finish him, he is just tough.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

That fight was completely unsurprising.

 

[alr1ght]

absolutely tooled for 5 rounds

 

[polyh3dron]

Wow.

 

[BobTheFork]

No shit. GSP has been fighting a half-blind man for four rounds, and hasn't done anything to put a finish together.

I never wanted to see a finish. I wanted to see him punch Koscheck in the face over and over for 25 minutes. Just the damned attitude...he didn't even touch gloves. HE'll probably still talk shit after this.

 

[Rorschach]

Kos running away 'till the very end. 20 secs left. I must take it to decision!

 

[AranhaHunter]

Will GSP ever finish a fight again? I liked his use of the jab and his dominating performance, but damn.

 

[DY_nasty]

GSP are Josh's soul in the ring tonight.

I love how GSP brought the jab into the ring tonight. Completely dominated the ring with his striking. A pleasure to watch.

 

[smurfx]

flipping pancakes now...

hey bishop haven't seen you in while. don't know if its because you've been gone or you just haven't posted in any of the threads i've been in.

 

[EraldoCoil]

Beautiful! Im glad Koscheck got his ass embarrassed.....

 

[Instro]

Koscheck was flinching so much by the end of the fight. :lol

 

[X26]

pretty dull 25min, but atleast gsp won

 

[Fifty]

GSP just didn't take that many risks because he wanted to be healthy for us in Toronto! What a beautiful performance by the p4p champ.

 

[abstract alien]

As clichéd as it is to say, I have never seen a match that was literally target practice the entire time.

 

[Big-E]

Best there is, best there was, best there ever will be. People bitched about GSP just doing take downs and now he dismantles someone via strikes and makes a so called dangerous opponent look like a teddy bear.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Wow, Kos must be the toughest man in the world--there probably isn't a man alive that could finish him, he is just tough.

Good win, not what some people wanted but meh. GO GSP!

 

[ldcommando]

Dominated.

 

[sooperkool]

His wrestling is on another level. Why use stricking whne you wresltling is even better? GSP outclasses everyone in every area. Best WW of all time easily.

Yep, my wrestling is great so i'll just JAB this guy all night and close his eye up. I won't try to punish him or knock his ass out with my great striking once his eye is shut. we'll just dance and spar.

Watch Ali vs. Ernie Terrell if you want to see someone get taught a lesson with striking and carried for the sole purpose of humiliation.

 

[m3k]

so what can you say about that fight... that was a through and through clinic

perhaps you could say that gsp should finish these fights but ... kosheck wasnt even on his level

 

[BigKaboom2]

ITT: People enthralled by a guy throwing the same punch to the same spot on the other guy's face, with zero combinations despite zero retaliation, for 25 minutes.
