UFC welterweight Josh Koscheck confirmed Friday evening that he will be taking on the red-hot Mike Pierce at UFC Fight Night 20. Koscheck is hoping that a victory over Pierce will get him closer to a rematch with UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre. "Bad news! Not fighting matt Hughes :( but the good news is". I'll be wipping GSP's --- real soon!!," Koscheck tweeted before confirming the bout with Pierce.

How familiar? Talk **** about a fight, when you have one that isn't even in the books yet. Chump, win first, then go on a mission from god to figure out how to beat GSP.

Yo Josh. Seriously???

Sounds like 'Kos' has had too much blunt force trauma to the head.

I think Josh is getting a LOT ahead of himself here! He would get his arsh kicked by GSP AGAIN if they were to meet. The last time these two met everyone was talking about how Josh would win because of his wrestling skills. Well as it turns out GSP controlled the whole fight and showed everyone that he can beat Josh at his own game.

Comments like this don't make you sound brave of courageuos or even cocky. You just sound like a re-t@rd Koscheck.

im from the Erie PA, KOS had a camp up here for wrestling and a kid i worked with invited me to the camp to meet him. Let me tell u this aint pre fight hype or anything. Kos is one of the biggest jerks around. On the last day of camp my buddie and i went up to him and asked for him to sign our shirts and he told us to "**** Off" and walked away. Hes nothing more than a snot nosed brat who i hope gets KTFO in every fight. Hes a real waste of air.

he wont even get a title shot he will get thiago or fitch and get beat then drop to lightweight to fight diego again

plus with almeada and if akiyama drop into this division he might even lose his "gatekeeper" status

He can't beat GSP if GSP had TWO groin tears and a migraine and mild constipation...

October 17, 2009  03:57 PM ET

poor Kosch... must have been hit in the head too many times... he might even fight GSP again, but I hardly think he will be any closer to the belt than he is right now.

That sucks! The sad thing is that if he would have given you a minute of his time and signed your shirts he would have fans for life! I was in Vegas in early August and I met Mike Brown at the Hard Rocks pool. I told him that I used to root for Fabre but since watching him fight he made a fan out of me. He talked to my buddy and I for a few minutes and then had to go. He was a GREAT guy and I will root for him everytime he fights.

GSP already dominated him once before, no interest in seeing a rematch.

October 17, 2009  08:23 PM ET

It is going to be funny when Pierce beats his ass...what an idiot!!!

October 18, 2009  04:02 AM ET

Sifu says, Koscheck-san is delusional.

October 18, 2009  05:03 AM ET

Koscheck has an alligator mouth and a hummingbird ass.

I have to assume he's just trying to hype his fight up, he has to know that pierce is a tuff fight and there is no way he's crazy enough to think he can beat GSP.

I can't see him even putting up a decent struggle against GSP, not to be taken out of context because no one else puts up much of a fight against GSP either

Koz could never make lightweight - not while keeping all four limbs attahced. Get a clue.

what is he suppose to say, he can't be GSP. Look, Josh is acting the same way GSP did after his lost to Hughes the first time. I don't believe he can win that fight but there is nothing wrong with a fighter believing in himself. Remember it is only cocky when you get back it up, so lets see if he is all talk.

I agree with you somewhat, but saying you'll whip someone who dismantled you previously is plain moronic. You expect him to show some bravado but the way he put it comes off as arrogant and ignorant. Perhaps the bleaching chemicals are having an affect on his melon, yeah?
