Inteviewer: You don't think he's[Koscheck] is going to try and take you down?

Anthony Johnson: Oh yea, I'm sure he is ya know? He ain't gonna have no choice but to try and take me down. Cause I'm touch him, I'm touch him good. And if I touch him, he gone know that DAMN Anthony Johnson can hit. I'm not the same guy from 2 years ago. I respect his takedowns, but I got something for him if he try that to.

Things happen for reason

Excuse me if you guys don’t share my religous beliefs, but the Lord works in mysterious ways, especially in your time of need.

Hope everything works out for that Alien-looking summuva bitch — he’s a new breed of fighter, even if he loses now this kid will be a world champion one day.

His view on the bonus shit ups him one notch in my book.

Bloody hell.

lol….he is a physically impressive fighter. Win or lose on Saturday I wouldn’t want to face Anthony in another year or so.

I think Rashad (or some other LHW) said he felt small next to him lol

Bloody hell.

love what this guy is saying. this is exactly how a potential contender should talk. i think if he beats kos, he’s next after hardy, and desrevedly so. that’s a match-up that can wet peoples appetite in the ww division.

Johnson & Contenders in Bold -

I understand that Koscheck is considered a top guy, a top contender but I don’t see how Rumble beating Koscheck warrants a title shot.

Short Timeline:
Oct 2008 – Koscheck loses in a valiant effort against Thiago Alves.
Dec 2008 – Koscheck gets his first KO-punch victory against a the so-so Yoshida
Dec 2009 – Johnson avenges the error made by ref Steve Mazzagatti -beat Burns via KO
Feb 2009 – Koscheck gets upset by Paulo Thiago
Feb 2009 – Johnson KO’s Fioravanti
July 2009 – Paulo Thiago gets schooled by Jon Fitch
Sept 2009 – Koscheck pummels veteran Frank Trigg
Oct 2009 – Johnson misses weight but KO’s Yoshiyuki Yoshida

Johnson recent resume doesn’t look really impressive enough for a title shot but this is the UFC, guys get injured, great KO’s make guys look great, and the show must go on.

Well....

Haven’t they said that Hardy is getting his shot a title? And if so the winner of this fight will most likely get another fight “for a shot at the title”. You know how these things go.

when a.j knocks out kos in under 4 minute bc kos said he is not worried(which mean he is very worried)

kinda like the smile on the face when you get tagged and you try telling yourself that did not hurt. i think matt wiman did that to spencer fisher and fisher landed one of the most crushing knee strikes to the jaw that i have ever seen. kos is in big trouble. bank on it!

yes i am obsessive, obnoxious, in your face and all about covering the spread. those are my good qualities.
