George St Pierre Vs Josh Koscheck, If two athletes who share the bench even a professional sports team were to enter a piece, it would be the hot topic of every sports talk show on television and radio. All the Internets would spit hot fire on the way he is so unprofessional and represents the continued demise of sport in the era of big-money. So why mixed martial arts be different? Why can not teammates – those who train in the gym itself and / or fight under one flag – step into the cage and slug it out with each other? They do in the gym during training camps, so why not get paid for it once? It would indeed be met with cheers and praise instead of boos and disgust.

Most fighters, of course, do not see it that way. “I’ll never fight against Jon Fitch,” said UFC welterweight Josh Koscheck, who fought and lost champion Georges St. Pierre Saturday night at UFC 124.

If Koscheck beat St-Pierre, he would have faced his training partner of the American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, California, sooner rather than later. “I’ll go to the weight class or I’ll cut my leg and move down a weight class,” said Koscheck.

But whatever the outcome of last night’s fight, Koscheck should be forced to fight Fitch that the fight should be the most viable plan, market and promote. All team members must have to do. Although the prospect of having to punch and kick a friend in the face or legs or abs might not seem as nice as, for example, by sending them a birthday card, it’s their job. They are fighters. They chose this line of work. The nobility of the profession is to have the courage to enter a cage and see who emerges victorious.

At the time that Lyoto Machida has been at the top of the world light heavyweight UFC with the belt around his waist, popular sentiment was put in the cage with middleweight champion Anderson Silva.

Silva, Brazilian colleagues, declined. Refusal. Said he did not enter the cage with my brother. ”

Jon “Bones” Jones of upstate New York is the rising star of the UFC, the model of what is to come in the next few years in mixed martial arts. It is part of the team noted coach Greg Jackson in Albuquerque, NM Rashad Evans is the No. 1 contender at light heavyweight. Same division as Jones.

“If Rashad Evans won the belt, which I’m hoping he does, my only goal would be the toughest opponent he is, and keep whipping butt without being champion,” Jones said Media in London in October during the week of UFC Fight 120. “I would stay at 205 and the second best. That would be my goal.”

UFC president Dana White has been outspoken on the issue of same camp fighters not wanting to mix everything. And with the expansion of the UFC feather and bantamweight divisions and the influx of these fighters WEC, the subject will continue to be raised. At one point, members of the Woman cocks Uriah Faber Alpha team, a growing group of talented fighters and small, will have to enter the cage with another on television, not only in the gym.

“When you enter, you are yourself,” said UFC welterweight Ricardo Almeida, family member Renzo Gracie. “But it’s a team effort. You need a lot of people to be there for you to do training and during the difficult time for you to be able to accomplish in the octagon. And people who do not see that, too bad for them. “

Georges St. Pierre, Georges St. Pierre will be available as of April UFC 131 cases, which marks the beginning of the promotion to Toronto and takes place at 69,000-seat Rogers Centre? f it is the champion, you will. UFC president Dana White is not ready to commit to that just yet, but he said there are some larger guns that can also be available to attend the event blockbuster. I want [to fight in the UFC 131], but it depends on the boss,” said St. Peter. “If the boss wants, I am”

“The boss, of course, is white. And if the idea seems to be a natural form – take one of the biggest sports stars and leave as their country of origin – White said it was too early to tell. “The fight just got more,” White said. “As I was saying all the time, every time we enter the press conference, you guys are trying to do the fighting. I do not know yet. ” UFC 131 is scheduled for April 30. If St. Peter did not commit to the execution of four and a half months, this will be the shortest time between fighting for the championship since the break-in four months he had in his rematch against Matt Serra and his victory August 2008 over Jon Fitch. St-Pierre will need permission from a doctor first, but immediately after the fight, he said he felt the challenge.

“I think I’m OK,” St. Pierre said. “I’m going to see the doctor. I have some bumps and bruises, but I’m healthy. So far, with the adrenaline, I feel good. We see in a few minutes when things slow down, but I think I can go back in training within days, perhaps two or three. “It’s in the UFC. I work for the UFC. I love my job. I like the fight.” Latest Strikeforce import Jake Shields is currently the No. welterweight division of a contender. White said he would be open at St Peter’s face Anderson Silva in the near future, but with the middleweight champion against Vitor Belfort in February, and April showdown would be highly unlikely, even if Silva emerged victorious. Of course, even if St. Peter is not available, UFC 131 may still receive a title fight. Newly crowned UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez, who was in Canada over the weekend and has hosted a UFC Fight Club Q & A, is scheduled to make his first title defense against Junior Dos Santos this spring.
