Need to see a replay to pin point exactly when the injury happened.

UFC 124: Josh Koscheck's Eye, 24 Hours After His Bout Against Georges St. Pierre

UFC 124: Josh Koscheck's Eye, 24 Hours After His Bout Against Georges St. Pierre - Bloody Elbow

Josh Koscheck posted a picture of his eye, a day after his UFC 124 championship bout against Georges St. Pierre. He is currently in Boston to have surgery on the fractured orbital bone.

Dude there is not a fucking finger in the world that could break someones orbital bone.

Oliveira vs Miller nice submission, I dont like the attitude of Miller, hopefully he gets KOd in his next fight.

Pearson vs Riddle was extremely fun to watch. Technically it was a very poor match but it was damn entertaining.

MacCorkle vs Struve: well nothing special to say here.

GSP vs Kos: I am very happy that GSP kicked Kos´s ass in that way. Koscehck talked too much and he deserved a beating, I am happy GSP did that.
I still dont consider GSP to be No. 1 P4P fighter because he can not finish fights, he is extremely dominant, he wins every round so easily, but damn, he cant finish.
I dont know if Shields vs GSP is a good idea at this moment, Shields looked horrible in his first fight, he needs another one before a title shot.
Koscheck will now STFU for some months, that is a good thing.

Based on the fact that you are calling him "the other guy" you obviously have no idea as to the significance of his win. And not only his win, but his KO win. He was likely fighting for his job. Who the hell are you to dog on someone for being amped up after flatlining a guy and keeping food on the table for him and his family? Get real

Eye pokes also damage the eye, not break the bone surrounding it. You would think this is obvious..?

First I said it before the news about his orbital being broken. Second just cause the bone broke doesn't mean he didn't get poked. Third I didn't say it was on purpose ya smug bastards.

Sick card. Really impressed with all the fights. I had a friend watching who is not a fan of MMA and he even enjoyed the card (especially the Riddle/Pierson fight). Great night of fights over all, and a huge success for the UFC.

I'll get it out of the way now and say that I think Joe would be better suited at 145 (despite what Dana says). I'm also happy Danzig earned the win. I feel like he really wanted this and he earned it.

Thiago looked sharp and comfortable, I really enjoyed his performance. He really punished Howard's leg. Good performance.

Miller had an awesome sub, I was impressed with Oliveira even in defeat. He had some smooth transitions that he just couldn't capitalize one. No doubt he will come back even stronger from this loss and now we get to see what the UFC has in store for Miller.

The Riddle/Pierson fight was awesome. Man, Riddle can take some abuse and he's one crazy SOB. Sucks that they didn't officially win FOTN honors, but Dana said he'd take care of them, so it's all good.

GSP.....Great performance. Stand up looked good, I'd like to see him take a few more risks to try and finish the fights, but his game plan was solid and he did a great job. Josh looked hesitant and never really got his timing down, and GSP took full advantage of it. Great fight.

i agree with all above. especially that joe should go down to 145. i have thought this for a little while now, and since the weight class is now there for him in the ufc i think that it would be a great move for him.

great card all around. loved all of the fights. very entertaining. sometimes a card may not look the greatest on paper, but love when it comes through with the results that came about from sat night.

I don't think Shields gets finished. Well, I think he's going to win, so he can't get finished if that happens. But the big difference between Shields and Kos is that Shields will remember that he has any sort of ground game

You'd stinkin think after getting picked apart for a round or two that Josh would go back to his roots, you know, the discipline that he won a national championship in. Terrible gameplan by Josh, he said he thought GSP wouldn't strike with him, and if you don't go into a fight expecting everything, and having plans B and C, you don't deserve to be champion.

I disagree Chuck Norris's little finger could break any bone!

he only has one more dec to date than fedor. plus when you think about it fedors stiffest comp came back in pride. sure ive heard the argument that timmay and AA were top 10 if not top 5 but come on a back in the day CC or big nog is definately better than post ufc timmay and AA. timmay and AA were taylor made to be KOed when they faced him fedor was on a run of dec until he faced those guys plus rogers.

now, im not trying to get into a p4p who is better debate im just saying going of dec victories its no where near as lopsided as one would think. i know fedor is your man, and its a good choice for p4p. but come on dude saying dec victories is why you dont have gsp at number??? theres gotta be a better reason. (ill help you out with this part) fedor dec victories were generally against stiffer competition where as gsp and anderson have went to dec against guys they should have finished

oh, and look at this.
