Prediction: correct Koscheck   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

At this point in both of their careers, Koscheck is a better wrestler than Hughes.  I can see him dropping Matt Hughes and finishing him with punches though.  His stand-up has gotten a lot better, excluding the GSP fight :P

I really hope Matt wins I like the guy I think he's a great fighter, but his days are done he should have retired after he choked out Almeida. He could have gone out on a nice streak with a sick sub to finish it.

I dont think Hughes will retire unless he loses, hes too much of a competitor to quit when he is winning

I think Matt Hughes will defeat Koscheck.  I believe that Josh is one of the most over-rated fighters in the UFC. I wish he fought Sanchez (rematch), Fitch, Penn, Shields, Nick Diaz, Hardy, Leben, Serra.

I love Matt Hughes and I've really enjoyed watching him fight over the years. He's one of the best ever. In his prime he destroys Kos. But right now present day there is no way he beats Kos. Hughes can't take a punch and he's a lot slower then Kos. This fight is pointless but Josh takes it with ease.

just saw something online about Hughes saying this is the last fight on his contract and his wife wants him to quit...I might have to switch my pick and go with Kos now lol

Hughes last fight or not, he won't be Koscheck (as much as i hate to say it). Kos is much to well rounded and lets face it, if GSP only took him down once and couldn't keep him there, hughes doesn't stand a chance. I like KOS by decision...

It is a bit of a hard call. Kos was supposedly training to go to MW and he had a horrible injury with a very long layoff. That may help Matt even if on paper he should have no chance. I still pick Kos but I wouldn't bet my money on this fight.
