I'm excited for this fight. BJ had that old "just scrap" mentality back. So good to see him fired up and back to form (mentally) again. Fitch's biggest strengths in this fight will be his size and wrestling. But like DanC said already, BJ's jits could prove to be a real problem for him on the ground. On the feet I would still give the advantage to Penn, despite the size and reach disadvantage. Hopefully Penn can stay motivated and go on a tear from here.

WAR PENN!!!
