I feel like Im out of the loop these days. I just found out yesterday that Koscheck is no longer training with AKA and his gym in Fresno in no longer AKA Fresno but is now Dethrone Base Camp. I didn't see any threads on this and I figure I can't be the only person who didn't know so I made one. I'm interested to see if this change actually does anything for his career. It sounds like he still going to be training with all the AKA fighters he just won't be under the AKA banner anymore so Im not sure how much anything will change but sometimes all you need is a change in scenery to get a new start.

Not gonna change anything. He didn't look good in either of his last 2 fights. I think the last fight with GSP ended him as a title contender. He doesn't react well to getting hit anymore.

The fact that he sturggled with Pierce (who I felt beat Koscheck) shows he's slowing down. Hell Matt Hughes was having way too much success against him.

I'm confident that Hendricks will land a right hook and put Koshcheck away.

I hate to say it seeing as I dont like to give GSP credit because I dislike him but I truly think GSP ended Koscheck's title run chances, he hasnt been looking good. His strike defense needs serious work and I hope Hendricks becomes the AKA killer. I dont really like anyone from AKA except for Cain and Cormier.
