Johnson takes this in devastating fashion — as a result he is rushed to the front of the line to face GSP.
Dan Hardy will understand.

He also says the fight will happen this March. They have two cards planned on that month, the UFC card on Versus, and UFC 111 on New Jersey about a week later.

![Evidence of Anthony Johnson poking Josh Koscheck's left eye, prior to the "illegal" knee:
Johnson had this to say after the fight:
"I didn't hit him in the head, I hit him in the arm. I don't know why he would act like [that], I guess he was gassing. That's the only thing I can think of, [him] trying to find some kind of excuse to complain. I know I didn't hit him in the head. I thought I timed it perfect but I didn't and that's my fault. After him poking me in the eye it made a big difference. Then he did it twice and got both eyes the second time because when he swings, he jabs with his open hand and the right didn't even hit me, it was just the open palm strike and my eyes, my eyes are burning like hell right now. After I hurt him, he needed that, he needed some kind of excuse to recover, but it's all good."
