Maybe Kos is just growing up. Agreed though with the posts above, this is the first time I can remember reading or hearing an interview of his and thinking that someone needs to slap the sh** out of him for making idiot comments.

Sweet he mentions Eric Bradley. That guy was a wicked nasty wrestler that went to Timberlane NH. Won a couple of New England titles and I think he even Senior nationals. Probably one of the Top 5 Wrestlers to come out of New England, I hope he kicks some ass and makes to the UFC.

BTW, I think this is the way Kos really is. I think he has played up the dick roll a lot just to get people to hate him so they watch his fights. I have read a couple other interviews where he has sounded like this, like when he was about to fight Diego. Or maybe it was just an immature thing and he is finally growing up a little, either way it doesn't matter because he is probably going to be considered the Number 2 ww in a few months.

A douche cloud will always follow Kos. Similar to the dust cloud that follows pig pen.

He should take the win against Hazelett

Wrong, this fight makes ZERO sense for Hughes... Kos is still not on his level, and Hughes has NOTHING to gain in this fight. He has a couple fights left, and they will be against top tier opponents, which will be Serra, and possibly Fitch.... Kos just
isn't there yet... Now if Kos had beatin some one in the top 5 or top 10 in dominating fashion, and looked to be a true WW contender in the making, then yes, but he hasn't. He is just hoping to catch Hughes on his way out to make a name for himself.

Agreed, he has not beaten anybody in the top 5, if he had it would be another story.

[Gurry]

few things: hes not the best wreslter in the WW divison, neither is hughes, GSP outwrestled both of them, and made them both look like fools.

secondly: Kos vs Hughes is a fight the fans DONT wanna see.

When Kos beat Sanchez, Diego was considered like number 3 @ WW. Some people even thought he was number 2 above Hughes. So yea, Kos has beaten a Top 5 fighter. And outside of BJ Penn, Kos is the only one in recent memory to go the distance with GSP.

BTW, in an actual wrestling match, when they arent worrying about punches and kicks from GSP. Kos and Hughes would kill him. There is a difference between wrestling and MMA. Just because GSP outwrestled them in an MMA does not mean he would even last the entire match in a wrestling match.

Who considered him a #3 WW? he's been in the top 10 for a while but in my eyes he's never been in the top 5 let alone the top 3. GSP, Hughes, Serra(by way of Title Holder), fitch, Sakurai(SP), Shields are all ahead of him and have always been if you ask me.

[Rufio]

Virtually everyone considered Diego #3. Matt Serra hadn't won the title yet and I beleive this was around the time he went to a VERY controversial decision with Chris Lytle, a guy at best on the fringe of the top 10. Sakurai and Shields were outside the UFC and I don't think they were even in 170 lb divisions. Diego had just gotten wins over Parisyan, Diaz, and Riggs. He was on his way to a title shot. It wasn't a dominating win, but it was a win against a top 5.
