Anthony Johnson stated that he would be willing to fight right away after missing weight at UFC 106. The UFC answered the call, Anthony “Rumble” Johnson will take on Josh Koscheck (13-4) in the co-main event at UFC 106 slated for Nov. 21 in Las Vegas, NV.
Koscheck first broke the news of the fight on his twitter account,
I got some big fight news for me. I am fighting nov 21 in Vegas. Co main event!!! Haha it’s on baby!!!!
AKA trained fighter, Josh Koscheck has gone 2-2 in his last four fights in the UFC. Most recently destroying Frank Trigg in the first round at UFC 103.
Johnson (8-2), is coming off a lopsided win over Yoshiyuki Yoshida at UFC 104. Johnson will have under a month to stay prepared for a much tougher competitor in Josh Koscheck.

i see Johnson taking this one
KOS will win
wow great fight..I see Anthony winning tko or knock out but i Hope KOS beats Johnson because Anthony he cant make weight and he beats his girlfreind..
i predict johnson comes in over weight and is a heavy weight by the time the fight happens. and lol @ that picture you guys have of koscheck. you couldn't pick a worse picture, huh?
this fight is gunna be sick! could go either way they are both big wrestlers with heavy hands. not as good as the heavyweight title fight but what really is?
I give the edge to Koshcheck in wrestling and Conditioning. But he better watch for those bombs
kos should finish this fight
kos via tko rd 2
I agree Jay i think Kos can win this and is the supperior fighter right now. I think anthony could have a better career but i think Kos is the better fighter right now. If kos wears on him against the cage i think he will take it but if hes dumb and just throws bombs like he does with most people he will be put to sleep.
With a good gameplan Kos can take this one. He's got to take it to the ground because on the feet Johnson will pick him apart.
