   damn Kos made off like a bandit for his fight, $106K for the fight and $140K in bonuses! dude made almost a quarter milli in one fight, as much as i dont like Kos its still nice to see a top 5 guy (IMO) make top 5 money, now he needs to work on getting that much without bonuses.

   ya i been reading the twitters surrounding Kos and Hardy and i came across something on Rogans twitter. The eye poke received by Koscheck animation, it was really quick and not really visible from the camera angle on the night of the fight. They showed the illegal knee like 10 times but the eyepoke actually happened BEFORE the knee. In light of this new evidence, Kos looks like less of a douche.

   However! i still think his pokes against AJ were intentional so ya, hes still a douchebag in my opinion.
