LAS VEGAS – UFC 143 winner Josh Koscheck dropped
the first hint of trouble at this past Thursday’s pre-fight press
conference, when he talked about the importance of “Team Me.”

Following his split-decision win over Mike Pierce at Saturday’s event in Las Vegas, Koscheck opened the flood gates.

“I’ll be training out of Fresno for now,” Koscheck told MMAjunkie.com. “I’m no longer affiliated with some of the people
at the gym that I’ve been training at.”



LAS VEGAS – Depending on who you talk to, Carlos Condit’s
unanimous-decision win over Nick Diaz in the main event of Saturday
night’s UFC 143 event in Las Vegas was either a brilliantly designed and
perfectly executed gameplan or a mockery of mixed martial arts.

While it’s obvious, of course, which Condit believes, you can also count
UFC president Dana White among those who thinks the “Natural Born
Killer” did all the right things.

“Carlos Condit won,” White said following the evening’s post-event press
conference. “He went in there, and he fought a great fight.”



Carlos Condit was able to connect against Nick Diaz and stay on the move.

Carlos Condit did everything right in his victory over Nick Diaz, but that isn’t stopping fans from complaining about how the fight unfolded.


LAS VEGAS – The rematch is happening.

At Saturday night’s UFC 143 post-fight press conference, UFC president
Dana White confirmed that both UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva and his nemesis Chael Sonnen
have verbally agreed to meet in Brazil on an as-yet-undetermined date
in June.

Silva was in Las Vegas for Saturday’s fight card, and White said an agreement was reached during the event.
