Erik Koch; From Contender to FP Prelims in 1 Year

Underground

...and if not victorious he'll be facing the dreaded three losses in a row. Never even got his title shot. One injury kicked off a pretty bad chain of events for Koch and now he is first fight on the card. 

2

What is even more depressing is the fact that he dropped out of high school to pursue a MMA career

Shit happens, that's life. Lool at TJ Grant, that guy was on the verge of becoming champ and he got a concussion and now he's fucked. Phone Post 3.0

Tough break but there is no shame in losing to Lamas and Poirier. Phone Post 3.0

Koch will bounce back strong tonight. He has fought top competition and his fight w/ Porier was insane.

That being said, idk why the UFC is putting him on fight pass. He deserves to be on the fs1 prelims at least. Nothing new though, they always drop the lighter weights place on the card, despite being top 10, after a loss

6

Theres only 2 fights on the fight pass? Phone Post 3.0

7

He was beating Lamas in their fight before he took it to the ground

8

Pretty sure he's the second fight on the card. It probably has to do with him moving up in weight too. The UFC seems to not like that very much. If he were in the same position but dropping a weight class, he'd probably be on the main card. Phone Post 3.0

What?

Damn.

You should only drop out if you are a teen with large breasts from a broken home and only then should you do so in order to grind on laps in a Spearmint Rhino. Phone Post 3.0

Koch was fighter I wanted to see. Maybe trying to use him as a draw to fight pass as he is pretty exciting.

And yeah he lost to 2 top guys but still in upper echelon of his division.
