|  Penn vs JZ
Who wins? I'm going to go out on a limb and say that JZ could actually GNP Penn in the second. I'm probably wrong, but if anyone could it would be him.

JZ wouldn't finish Penn but he's got almost a 50% chance in this fight imo. Penn is better standing, and on the ground... but JZ has the edge in strength, speed, & athleticism. I'd still have to go w/ Penn because he's BJ Penn, but I wouldn't be shocked if JZ got the Split Decision.

You know JZ's GNP is sick, he is freaking awesome once he gets ahold of someone. Not like Sherk or Hughes who would just lay on you. JZ is active in the guard and won't be easily submitted. Could Penn catch him? Yes. Will he? I don't think so. JZ has the best LW GNP in the game.

I never stated that JZ would sub Penn. Yes he is a purple belt but he is so good at other parts of his game that he can make up for a deficiency in BJJ. A deficiency that almost every LW in the world would have against Penn.

BJ does not, when it gets to the ground BJ teaches JZ a thing or two about Jiu-Jitsu.
