better effort this time, I dont think he has a glass jaw becasue he got hit by a few good ones from Gratton. Good fight

Could be fight of the year...

Koci looks like a cementhead. Probably pretty strong but a little unsure on his feet. Entertaning bout though and I would give him a slight edge after getting embarassed in the first bout with Gratts.

Koci is gonna be good but u cant judge him just by a bout with gratton wait til he fights boogaard or brashear or LARAQUE

Should have let them go longer!

Josh honours the "code" and gives Koci a rematch. Josh can take a punch and keep on ticking. Take the time to watch the punches he is still throwing "blind" with his jersey over his head. Lucky for the linesmen at the end or Koci would have received his 2nd defeat of the night. Much better showing for Koci this time though.

Oh man Koci..... I think I'm in love...... best fight I have seen this year

Great bout. Heck of a first game for Koci! Takes on Gratton, a well established fighter in the NHL, TWICE in the first period! Then knocks out Thomas with a great, perfectly legal hit and stands up to Boynton. Way to make an impression!

On my part, I think it's great old time hockey! Back to the roots, get out there and mix it up. And it clearly had a positive effect on the Blackhawks.

More Koci!

Once again, Koci's lack of balance ended the fight. However, this time he had pretty much exhausted himself by the end wailing on Gratton's (mostly sweater-covered) melon. Gratton certainly threw and landed a few bombs, and it appears that Koci can take a hit or two. Koci the clear winner.

Good scrap

Gratz worked through the jersey, took the punishment and proved to be the bigger warrior.

Posted by plum29 on Mar 11, 2007 at 9:23 PM agree

gratton won the 2nd half of that fight and ended on top.

good scrap between these two.

but very nice to watch...
