Comments on: St. Pierre vs. Penn II Just One Beating Away http://www.cagepotato.com/2008/07/08/st-pierre-vs-penn-ii-just-one-beating-away/ Sat, 22 Nov 2008 02:15:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Old Skool http://www.cagepotato.com/2008/07/08/st-pierre-vs-penn-ii-just-one-beating-away/#comment-37486 Old Skool Mon, 27 Oct 2008 21:57:11 +0000 http://www.cagepotato.com/?p=1923#comment-37486 Ok guys, the reality of it is that it will be a very exciting fight! All the fanboi's one way or the other need totrealize that this fight makes ALOT of sense, and is deserved by both fighters. Bj Never "lost" the WW Belt. It was given up at BJ's choice to want to fight in a different leauge (Pride). One of his main reasons is because the Light Weight Division was gone in the UFC and BJ knows that is the best weight for his size. However the fact that BJ WAS Dominant at 170 BJ's carrer in the UFC started by dominating (except a iffy split decision to Pulver) the 155 lb. class with wins over Caol Uno and Din Thomas Joey Gilbert and Paul Creighton . Then he stepped up and beat Matt Serra at 170! When he got a title shot against Matt H everyone thought he didn't have a chance....except me and a few who knew the deal (I made 750$ profit on that one!!!). Since he returned to his most natural weight he has beaten Pulver, Stevenson, and Sherk. He is the deserved Champion at 155. Due to btoh guys dominance (GSP is a stud as well) this fight is the best for the fans since they are both capable of fighting at this weight. Silva cant cut past 185 (in good health) and I dont think GSP would step up in weight as he walks around at 185-188...Silva would destroy him. So we should all quit whining about "eye pokes" and pizza and beer because NEITHER one of these guys will take fights lightly. Oh and Penn FTW!!!!!! 2nd round submission...hopefully an omaplata!

If penn trains right, which I believe he will because he knows thats the only reason he lost the first fight, he will win, im sure it wont be easy, but if anyone can ko george its penn, no disrespect, goerge is top 5 pound for pound, but bj earns his nickname the prodigy. for those interested 1. silva 2. fedor 3. faber 4. penn 5. george Penn was destroying george before he ran out of gas, same with hughes, the only ? is will penn come prepaired, nobody has ever defeated penn when he was @ the top of his game, unless you count machida, @ 185lbs, which penn was obviously, way smaller, and proobably not @ his best then, losing a decision.

He just step's over everyone else and demands S.T. Pierre give him a shot?There are other fighters in that Div that deserve it before Penn. Talk about disrespect to them. Penn should have to fight guys like Fitch and Alvres before he even get's a crack at it. Look at Anderson Sylva he is working to a shot at the belt in his new div. Screw Dana White for even allowing it to work that way. Oh, by the way, St.Pierre would have worked BJ over if it was not for that eye poke. There is no way whatsoever that Penn would take Rush now. He is going to get beotch slapped. I can not wait to watch that beating. You can quote me on it. Maybe then some of you guys will give Rush credit, Which he DESERVES. You guys seriously have to get over the disrespect because of a stupid Can vs US thing. Remember this is not the WWE.

Penn will not stand a chance. We still have not got to see Penn in a real contest. Boxing sean sherk for 3 rounds isnt exactly a test of cardio. After ufc 87, i dont think Penn could last 5 rounds with Fitch, let alone St pierre. And wtf is all this talk about anderson silva? Yes he is good, he may beat GSP, but i dont see Penn waving his hand at him either. And for your breakdown: mental and heart ====penn WHAT???? he cant even disipline himself to train. cardio ===gsp: true striking ====could go either way :true take downs ====gsp :true submissions and ground control ===penn submissions, yes, GC , GSP power === could go either way , NO, GSP once again more to lose ===gsp for sure biggest gain =====penn no doubt. I know we all have our fav fighters, but come on, give other ppl credit too. You guys are crazy. Penn will not stand a chance. We still have not got to see Penn in a real contest.
