I'm taking BJ, but it's going to be a really tough win, if it goes the distance, it'll probaly be a split decision. I'm expecting a full war on this one, and it's going to be a hell of a good fight.

Im going with Hughes... Cause Hughes wont be submitted again... not by the over weight 170 lb penn is Fat at 170... Hughes is Lean and mean and just one bad SOB... to all the haters of Hughes i hope he breaks that flexable Hawian down to the ground for some GOOD OLE GNP!!!!

I agree about B.J. standing with Matt but remember Matt did counter and submit gsp after he tried a kimura from the bottom.

are u trying to say gsp bjj is as good as bj if u are its nowhere even close

I'm sure it's going to be a war, but I think Hughes is to hungry for this fight to lose it... But no matter what happens, I want to see either Hughes, BJ, or GSP destroy Deigo. Or all of them do it.

matts standup is so overrated did u see wat bj did to gsp face if matt tries to stand with penn he might get knocked out

To be fair, most of the damage BJ did came after GSP got poked in the eye. Hard to see fists coming at your head when you can only see out of one eye. I see BJ as a better fighter than Hughes, but I'm not convinced that his talent will be enough to overcome Hughes' strength. He's a huge 170, and BJ is a small (and chubby) 170.

I think bj won the fight with gsp. He got robbed.

Hell, I love gsp but he lost...period.

Wrongwrongwrongwrongwrong. Oh and did I mention nope!

in my opinion penn has better strikes and a better submission game..hughes obviously is a better wrestler but im going to have to go with penn in this..he jumped up 15 lbs in weight to fight hughes the first time and won..i think penn will submit him in the 3rd
