As Joe Rogan said at the start of the fight (I think it was Joe) : "Josh isn't an asshole in real life, he's actually a nice guy"
I absolutely believe this. It all goes back to the 1980s WWF. Good guys versus bad. Koschek has to play the 'bad guy' in order to get attendance.. so he does that - lets a few words slip (which, for all we know were pre scripted) and seats sell out, and pay per view ratings go way up.. and so does his paycheck.
He's a good actor, I guess.. depends on the audience really.
It was an 'ok' fight - nothing really impressive.. even GSP knew it wasn't great at the end. Everyone likes to see the knock-outs or tap-outs.. but they all don't end that way.
