UFC 127 BJ Penn vs. Jon Fitch Video

zam77 · 02-19-11, 02:37 PM

The line gives Fitch to much credit... BJ can win this fight at any given time, while I believe Fitch will have to grind to get the V. Gonna be a grinder through the first round or two, but I think Penn sneaks in with a submission move late in round 2 to win this thing.

Fitch by decision right when the odds come out at bookmaker should be good.

I think Fitch could become champ in the weight class....Penn on the other hand, I'm not so confident about.

I doubt they'll be any better than what's already available at 5dimes/Sportbet

Fitch by decision is looking good. Also enjoyed the video, thanks!

This is too close to call. I would not personally place any money on this.

Vrakas · 02-22-11, 07:08 PM

tough fight to call,slight edge to fitch.if fitch can take penn down then the fight is his.otherwise penn wins.

Shane · 02-22-11, 07:36 PM

Not putting money on either side here. Very interesting fight, though. I'm hoping BJ can at least mount an attack from the bottom when Fitch inevitably takes him down and tries to smother him.

bogbat · 02-23-11, 12:48 AM

I wish this fight was a five rounder.

Stinger · 02-23-11, 12:53 AM

Hard to say, BJ isn't the same anymore, I'm not even going to play this

Pin2Win · 02-23-11, 09:24 AM

Fitch should have this one, I'm sick of BJ and everyone else saying "depends on which BJ shows up"

Me too, lets form a club. Unless there is some weird Prestige thing going on that I don't know about, there is only one BJ Penn.

Fitch in the third round +1200 looks awesome.

He's under some major pressure to finish fights, and BJ isn't exactly a cardio machine at 170, especially as he gets older.

It's not bad. The third round is probably the only round that's even some what possible for Fitch to finish. I don't expect Fitch to finish, but he will be trying and if BJ doesn't show up in good shape it's possible.

Vrakas · 02-23-11, 06:57 PM

bj is doing the right thing this time around.he needs to give himself the time to build up and then fight the top guys of the new weight class.when bj fought gsp he was much smaller than him.I think that this will be a very close fight since its bjs second fight in a row at 170.

bj just turned 32 not that old

yokes33 · 02-24-11, 07:32 PM

I can't wait for this fight! I gotta go with Fitch...

Varker · 02-24-11, 08:20 PM

If BJ can keep it standing, then things will get interesting. Otherwise he's getting smothered on the ground.

Maximum cardio threshold drops by one each year you are alive. Penn didn't have a high cardio potential to begin with, and moving up to 170 against a guy who could compete at 185 is not going to be fun.

I will probably just throw the fitch +1200 in a small parlay with some confident wagers.

Vrakas · 02-24-11, 11:05 PM

fitch is on a diet he is walking around at 180.If penn is bigger than him then we might see an upset tomorrow.

jin2daj · 02-25-11, 03:15 AM

fitch is walking around at 176lbs as of ufc 126. he's gonna be much smaller than usual on saturday.

How is Penn going to be bigger than him?

Cheeseburgers and donuts? BJ has got some mad weight gaining skills.

RealBets · 02-25-11, 07:52 PM

I love BJ, but just dont have it anymore. I would be surprised if BJ won. I cant see him KOing Fitch

purecarnagge · 02-26-11, 01:09 AM

BJ has no heart, no work ethic..unless he gets lucky in round 1 or lucky in round 2 on the ground its over.

Vrakas · 02-26-11, 11:35 AM

BJ will need a lot of luck.Fitch looks prepared and ready for another victory.BJ is still too small for 170.

Grosshhit · 02-26-11, 02:25 PM

Fitch will be ready to go, this should be easy money

Gruntworker · 02-26-11, 02:42 PM

I'm a fan of BJ as well, but just don't see him coming out on top on this one. I'm going with Fitch as well here.

jin2daj · 02-26-11, 05:31 PM

i cant believe they have these cards in the morning in austrailia so that we can PPV at reguklar times.

it makes sense but man who would watch go out to watch mma fights at 8am?

RbN · 02-26-11, 06:54 PM

What time will this event start?
