I can't put into words how happy I am that GSP beat Koscheck. I'd been looking forward to this fight more than any other UFC fight I've ever seen, and GSP didn't disappoint. He looks to be at his best, and his jab in particular last night was key. He dominated from the word go. All of Koscheck's promises and taunts came to nothing in the end. Very pleased .
