UFC 124 FIGHT video and result. St. Pierre had several takedowns, but Koscheck managed to get to his feet fairly quickly. However, St. Pierre didn’t throw many combinations and so Koscheck, although his face was battered and beaten, was never in trouble of being stopped.

Koscheck had talked trash throughout the promotion of the fight, enraging the St. Pierre camp and his fans, and the result was a mammoth and boisterous crowd well in excess of 20,000.

After the fight, though, St. Pierre and Koscheck embraced in the ring and St. Pierre credited Koscheck with a good job of hyping the fight.

Heavyweight Stefan Struve took a lot of abuse – verbally – from Sean McCorkle in the weeks before their bout. But Struve got the last laugh when he scored a first-round ground-and-pound stoppage over McCorkle.

McCorkle took Struve down early and had the advantage as the fighters were grappling for position. McCorkle was working for a Kimura and seemed to be close to getting it, but Struve fought it off.

He then swept McCorkle to reverse position. When he got into McCorkle’s guard, he fired punches and elbows until referee Yves Lavigne stopped it at 3:55 of the first.

Jim Miller completed a 2-0 night for the Miller family of New Jersey as he followed his brother Dan’s win with one of his own, an impressive knee-bar submission over Charles Oliveira.

The bout was on the ground and Miller was in guard, as Oliveira was active from the bottom and maneuvering for submissions of his own. But the previously unbeaten Oliveira made a mistake and Miller quickly capitalized, forcing the 21-year-old UFC rookie to tap at 1:59 of the first round.

“A lot of people underestimated me coming in against this kid,” Jim Miller said. “Charles is a tough kid, but I’m one of the best in the world.”

Mac Danzig entered his lightweight bout against Joe “Daddy” Stevenson having lost four of his last five. But Danzig survived the possibility of being cut by catching Stevenson on the point of the chin with a perfect counter left, knocking him out at 1:54 of the first round.

Little had occurred until the final sequence as Stevenson charged at Danzig firing punches. As he backed up, Danzig fired off the left and Stevenson did a face plant, falling directly to the canvas.
