TUF 19: Frankie Edgar vs BJ PENN

[gabe]

I think BJ could beat this guy

That guy will walk with you into a dark alley and walk out alone.

[mmaed]

I will be rooting for BJ Penn.

[MD]

he can definitely win the fight, but its hard to cap for several reasons. is he really motivated? i'm always wary of guys who have "retired" and then come back claiming to be motivated again. how will the layoff affect him? how will the weight cut to 145 affect him? will his cardio improve?

notwithstanding these factors, how do you not get excited about bj's return?? one thing we can be certain about is he will fight to the death.

Another thing we can be certain of is that it is going to decision.

[brokenbrain]

*le sigh* This has the potential to be as dull as BJ's biography, "Why I like Pineapples". No more TUF please, it just keeps getting worse.

Ariel Helwani @arielhelwani 11 Sep I'm told Penn is eating healthy, training and motivated. Dare I say, it's great to have him back.

wtf it's like mma is stuck in 2009

[Vaughany]

IS he carrying boulders under-water and jumping out of swimming pools as well?

Recently BJ Penn Lost his second fight in a row and PositiveBalance went insane and insulted other forum members which resulted in the funniest BAN ever on sherdog Other terms that describe him are troll, clown, Nuthugger. All around general douchebag. PositiveBalance ufc bj penn sherdog.net sherdog fighter by TJ Denn Aug 31, 2010 add a video

Frankie got to much speed for him Pun.

I was about to go full retard on you, but I took a few sniffs of my pineapple scented bj penn air freshener and it calmed me down.

Seriously though, I like that he's going out of his comfort zone and bringing in some real coaches and sparring partners. rather than justin mccully and kendall grove.

hahaha I'm sure Jason Parillo will still be there kissing BJ's ass at every chance he gets....

"You are the fuuuckin best BJ"

"You can beat anybody BJ"

"I love you BJ"

"Go and fuuck this prick up BJ"

worst COach everrrrrrrrr!

[mirinquads]

'Lets measure hogs BJ'

I really hope BJ's getting tired of getting beaten to a pulp and actually trying this time.

[rocky16]

Edgar would've smashed GSP, Fitch, MacDonald, and Diaz.

Lets say BJ wins and that isn't far fetched, u know people are gonna want him to fight Aldo.

[brooks85]

I wonder if BJ is finally ready to swallow his pride and take edgar down for 25mins so he can actually win this time.

Easier said than done, though. BJ is Edgar's size and Edgar has been fighting monsters like Maynard for most of his career, and at this point neither Maynard nor Bendo can wrestlef-ck him. Penn's best chance is probably to do what he did in the first fight, but strike at higher volume and hope he doesn't gas.

thats a good point.

You really think he has the cardio to do tht?!

[brooks85]

no lol

It is just that during the second fight to me it seemed bj had an advantage if he would have stuck with takedowns but that clearly wasn't his game plan. Whether not he can even do it this time I don't know but I think it would be his best path to victory.

gotta try something different then just standing in the middle watching Frankie bounce around him for 25 minutes

[Thor4140]

he'll try a few take downs in the first round and than watch Frankie bounce around for the other 21 minutes. Best bouncer OTPE!!!
