Josh Koscheck
He beat some good guys one hw who was hiding at welter.
Got just millions of boos, never got that but people are sheep.
Had a really terrible end of his career losing bumfights.
But how good was he peak right before his embarrassing title shot?
Personally I always rooted for him but never ranked him above maybe 7th best, meaning he never should have had a title shot.

Much like concerts the energy must be awesome.
Even live bumfights can be fun, i sat ringside with my friend a Ufc legend while he scored it.

The fight I was referring to happened at UFC 69 at Toyota Center in Houston, Texas on April 7, 2007. That was also the event where Matt Serra pulled off the massive upset of GSP.

I thought he killed him watching this live
Aside from that he was lucky to get a title shot against GSP, his mouth got him that deal for them to do TUF plus people were really high on his wrestling back then. I don't know where I'd rank him, but he was an elite fighter wrestling wise and developed a decent right hand.
Never beat anyone in their prime that was to great. .

My take: he was sort of limited as a fighter, but in his prime he had great athleticism and fast reflexes. Combined with being a good wrestler and hard puncher.
Maybe that won't win you a championship, but it can get you past a lot of fighters, even today's crop of fighters.

I wont even watch his later fights its a whole other person.
Reminds me of Chael Sonnen of course he was caught cheating but he put a beating on Silva.
So bad Silva had to play Tito and almost tapped Steven Seagal :> in to save him.
