It’s still three months away from the date when Georges St. Pierre and Josh Koscheck can fight for real, but the UFC welterweight champion and No. 1 contender are already beginning the verbal sparring that often precedes a title match.
That’s not so surprising from Koscheck, who has never shied away from controversy and has fully embraced the villain role handed to him after the UFC chose to stage the UFC 124 main event in Montreal — St. Pierre’s hometown.
It’s a little bit more shocking from St. Pierre, who rarely chooses to engage in word games, often admitting that it’s something at which he’s just not very good.
