Georges lays down the law in UFC 74 against Koscheck

By JOSE RODRIGUEZ

AS VEGAS -- Canada's French Connection ruled the cage here last night.

And after mopping the mat with with his opponent, Georges St. Pierre made an impassioned plead to Ultimate Fighting Championship brass to bring a fight to Canada.

"Please. Please. If you bring a fight to my country, my people will go crazy," he told the crowd to deafening applause from the large Canadian contingent on hand who had already witnessed Quebecer Patrick 'the Predator' Cote score a first round knockout.

St.Pierre, fresh from a title loss to 10-to-1 underdog Matt Serra put to rest questions about his mental strength as he beat Josh Koscheck in convincing fashion.

St. Pierre took Koscheck to the ground early and pounded him mercilessly in all three rounds scoring a unanimous decision.

It was a regenerated St. Pierre who chose to take the fight to the ground against a decorated college wrestler.
