Showing the world he’s keeping a sense of humor, Josh Koscheck tweeted this picture of the aftermath of his eye injury with the caption, “Enjoy this picture. Boom son.”

Koscheck suffered a broken orbital and was driven to Boston, Massachusetts by his training partner, Bob Cook to have surgery. Koscheck’s pre-fight plans of flying out of Montreal early Sunday were foiled by Georges St. Pierre’s first round punch to Koscheck’s eye and the subsequent repeated jabs that lasted over 4 and a half rounds. It was determined that an air pocket formed behind the eye, therefore making it unsafe for Koscheck to get on an airplane. Josh Koscheck was humbled by the entire experience in the cage, offering GSP a lengthy hug and words [we can assume] of respect after the punishment he was given.

Our MMA analyst, Steve Cofield of Cagewriter.com and ESPN Radio returns to host MMAFix UFC 123 Betting Odds. Cofield debates the UFC 124 betting odds with guest panelists Damon Martin of MMAWeekly.com and Larry Pepe of ProMMARadio.com.

The three experts weigh in on Thiago Alves in his “final” attempt at cutting weight to 170lbs as Dana White gives him one more chance and he takes on John Howard. Alves is considered a -300 favorite against Howard who is at +220, though both are coming off losses. Alves actually holds two recent back to back losses to the top 2 ranked Welterweights in the world, Jon Fitch and Georges St. Pierre. Howard suffered his first loss in the UFC at UFC on Versus 2, when his fight with Jake Ellenberger was stopped in the 3rd round due to TKO (doctor stoppage). Is the money worth laying down on John Howard or Thiago Alves? Damon Martin and Larry Pepe make their determinations in the video below:

Steve Cofield also asks the panel if +300 is worth staking on Josh Koscheck in his Main Event title contendor shot against UFC Welterweight Champion, Georges St. Pierre, who is about -400 to -500 in online sportsbooks. Check the video below if Kos would be a good bet.

Dana White Maintains GSP is Most Famous Canadian Athlete and Koscheck is a Dick (VIDEO)

Ariel Helwani is in Montreal, Quebec Canada covering the UFC 124: St. Pierre Vs. Koscheck. The 2010 Fighter’s Only MMA Journalist of the Year was able to snag Dana White for an in depth interview and argue with him a bit over who the most famous Canadian athlete really is. Helwani is a native of Canada and held his own debating with White that Wayne Gretzky may have more fame than GSP, but White maintains, Georges St. Pierre is known everywhere, especially noting his popularity due to the internet (which Dana so loathes as a media outlet).

Helwani also asks White about his relationship with Josh Koscheck after six weeks of filming for TUF 12. White is honest that their relationship has improved but reiterates that Koscheck is still a dick. Helwani also informs Dana White that Bellator will not allow Jonathon Brookins to fight for UFC due to the lawsuit and also tells him he’s heard about big rumors over an announcement soon for UFC in Brazil. White is surprised by both questions, saying he’s ready for a legal battle with Bellator and as for the Brazil rumors…he doesn’t know. Hmph….

Jeffrey David Kirby, will be sentenced February 4th in Santa Ana, California, after being found guilty yesterday of “one felony count of vehicular manslaughter by unlawful act with gross negligence while intoxicated and a sentence enhancement of causing great bodily injury.”

Kirby has two prior drunk driving convictions and was accused of causing the death of 45 yr. old TapouT co-founder Charles “Mask” David Lewis Jr., on the night of March 11, 2009 after he was driving under the influence at a reckless speed in his 1977 Porsche and crashed into Mask’s 2004 Ferrari. Mask was said to have lost control of his vehicle due to the impact, taking him off-road and crashing into a cement light pole. The 53 yr. old Kirby, who had also tried to flee the scene, is expected to face up to 13 years in prison.

Press Release from the Orange County District Attorney’s Office detailing the accident:

“At approximately 1:00 a.m. on March 11, 2009, Kirby was speeding in his 1977 Porsche with a 32-year-old female passenger, Lynn Marie Nabozny, alongside a 2004 Ferrari driven by 45-year-old Charles David Lewis, Jr., on Jamboree Road in Newport Beach. Kirby lost control of his car due to his unsafe speed and crashed into Lewis’ vehicle. Lewis lost control of his Ferrari, which crashed into a cement light pole and was torn in half. Kirby swerved and came to a stop on Jamboree Road for several seconds before accelerating and leaving the scene.

A Newport Beach Police officer, who had been passing northbound on Jamboree, observed the crash and immediately stopped to assist Lewis and called for back up. Lewis was trapped inside the front half of the Ferrari, which had to be dismantled in order to remove him. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Lewis’ 23-year-old passenger, Lacy Lynn White, was ejected from the car and landed on the nearby dirt embankment. White was transported to Western Medical Center to be treated for several bone fractures, lacerations and abrasions.

After leaving the scene, Kirby parked his Porsche, which had body damage consistent with having been involved in a crash, on Bison Avenue. Within minutes of the crash, a responding Newport Beach Police officer observed Kirby’s parked car and saw the defendant and Nabozny walking outside of the defendant’s vehicle. Kirby and Nabozny were both apprehended. When contacted by officers, the defendant was emitting an odor of alcohol, slurring his speech, and had bloodshot and watery eyes. He was arrested at the scene.

At approximately 3:00 a.m., two hours after the crash, Kirby had a blood alcohol level of .13 percent. Nabozny was arrested for public intoxication and later released.”
