BJ does not look happy

at the possibility of 3 more rounds. Sherk is barely breathing hard.

Yeah, maybe that's why he just buried Sherk

It was a very good plan by Sherk. The boxing was a distraction to land leg kicks, further weakening BJs TD defense in rounds 4 and 5. Sherk got unlucky by breaking his hand and getting caught with that knee just before he could really lay it on.

0.0

 i wanna know if he broke his hand



lol@u

I think the gameplan was as good as he could have hoped for. I definitely thought he broke his hand. The plan was to wear Bj's legs down to make the takedowns easier...

 not

terrys - BJ never gives people a 2nd shot if he beats you either. Yet expects rematches of all his losses.


hughes...

 " It was a very good plan by Sherk."


It sucked. He gave Penn three rounds while not tiring him much at all, since all Penn had to do was step back and throw non-tiring jabs all night. He didn't make him work to fight off takedowns and gave himself little chance of winning the fight. Sherk's reach disadvantage is just too much to make standing with anyone a good strategy for him -- which is too bad, because he's fast as shit and has a great chin.

ttt

BJ has another W. Yeah!

Bye, bye OP.

I think trying for the takedown would have been pointless in the early rounds. BJ's balance is excellent, and he would have been throwing strikes while hopping on the single leg....

"Hughes gave BJ another shot. BJ was just coming back into the UFC."

LOL

Hughes won't be signing on the dotted line any time soon for their rubber match.

 " I think trying for the takedown would have been pointless in the early rounds."


Tell that to Matt Hughes. Fighting off takedowns in the first round gassed the hell out of BJ in their fight and it showed when he was taken down instantly in the second.


Trying for takedowns, even unsuccessful ones, would tire BJ out as well as provide some time during which he wasn't being jabbed and out-pointed.

uno and hughes imo

Someone post a picture of BJs face after round 2. He did NOT look happy, so my thread is correct regardless of the outcome of the fight.

too sad..............Here's Ronald McDonald with a message:

I know thats not BJ. Why are you so scared to vindicate my thread?

I think you might be confusing a relaxed BJ Penn with a gassed one.
