that's a pretty fun card right there
They’re really throwing Yoshida in at the deep end, will be interesting to see how he handles the stall n sprawl stylings of Koscheck.

That Koscheck v. Yoshida fight is odd. This may wind up being the main event, which doesn’t make a lot of sense to me, since you have a guy that people do not like fighting a non-American at a military base.
For me, the fight is interesting, but I don’t know that those in attendance will love it. Though, if it’s not the main event then it doesn’t really matter.

I think they want the arena filled with chants of “U S A ! U S A !”

Going from War Machine to Koscheck is a little unbelievable. This is a bigger step up than Hendo was for Palhares after Salaverry.
Yoshida is in way over his head and Kos has a whole lot to lose.

I don’t think it’s a huge mismatch. They fed War Machine to Yoshida, he’s beaten some stiff competition in Japan.
