Josh Koscheck's got a big fight on his hands on February 4, as he looks to knock Carlos Condit out of title contention at UFC 143. Considering he's only one fight removed from a dominating loss to Georges St-Pierre, a win won't get him another shot at GSP. In an interview with MMAWeekly.com, Koscheck says that those circumstances, among other things, have made him a Nick Diaz fan into the fight card on Super Bowl weekend:
"I like the Diaz kid. He brings something similar to what I bring to the table. He's not afraid to say what's on his mind... Realistically, I think GSP is a strategist and GSP is probably gonna come out with a great game plan. That's where he can play it safe and get the victory... I'd love to see Diaz win because when I beat Carlos Condit Feb. 4. That means me and Diaz is for a title shot. And that means it's a big fight because he talks really good, and I believe I can talk up the fight really good."
