    Looks like this will happen. Its a pretty good fight but not sure if it co-main event worthy. But then again, you can't really be too harsh as it would be hard to come up with a better fight with less then 1 month remaning. Looking forward to Hazelett vs Parisyan and Cane vs Lil Nog (still hasn't been officially confirmed). I think they will probably move the Baroni vs Sadollah fight to the main card.

    Still a solid card. Better than 104 imo..

    Props to Kos and Rumble for stepping up.
    Cane vs Lil Nog will be awesome

    Anthony Johnson is a machine. I like Josh too, it'll be a good fight, but I see Anthony winning by KO.

    Kos will KO him standing or take him down and beat him up. TOugh fight for a rising fighter, brave to take it.

    Jesus make you make it sound like its a cakewalk. Johnson is a good wrestler himself and Koscheck had hell trying to take Alves down. Johnson is probablly alittle more well rounded as a striker and we have seen Koscheck KOed basically twice with Paulo Thiago and Drew Fickett (he was RNC but the knee set it up) Im pretty sure someones getting there head knocked clean off by a headkick or overhand right.

    Very good fight. I still think the card is weak without Lesnar (Ortiz/Griffin...who cares?), but this should be a good match. Koscheck is ready to throw down whenever, wherever. You have to like how much this guy fights. And it's a good test for Rumble. Should be a dandy.

    Kos is the most underrated fighter in the UFC.

    He didn't even try to take Alves down, for w/e reason.

    Koscheck tries to strike with someone whos a better striker than him and gets KTFO again me thinks. I hope for his sake that he realises what his bread and butter are soon......That's wrestling btw.:good

    Johnson is ****in explosive, even though I'm rooting for Koscheck to win, I doubt it will happen. Kos just doesn't have enough dimensions to his game. Striking wise he just has the right hand which is the same thing over and over and wrestling wise he takes people downs but never submits them.

    Good fight, koscheck has a pretty solid striking himself but doesn't have the power johnson have. I think it would be smart for him to take this fight to the ground and beat him there. I like koscheck in this fight if he takes this fight to the ground. Do not get into a striking contest with johnson or he'll get KTFO.

    Johnson better make weight this time. 6lbs over is unreasonable.
