I think BJ is going to fuck Fitch's world up inside that octagon. It's as simple as that, and it will be shocking. (only to the people who don't believe though)
Of course it depends on which BJ will show up that night. But if it's the same BJ that showed up for the last Hughes fight, no can defend.
Just watch.
Clipsburgh - I'm a little worried, I mean Fitch is basically GSP light.
not really
I think he wins
Really. The way I see it is that what does Fitch have against BJ Penn? Nothing.
The big thing will be whether or not Fitch can get the takedown. If so he has potential to control BJ on the ground and win some rds. If he can't get him down...all BJ.

No even close to the same fighting styles. They both use completely different styles of wrestling\grappling and their stand up is worlds apart.
caliphornia you're only saying that because you are an avid Penn fan.
The reality is he really does in fact have a good shot against Fitch. His speed and takedown defense is going to cause Fitch trouble, especially in a 3 round fight.
Also, shut up. The BJ that shows up is always the same. If he loses, it's because he got beat by a better fighter. He looked the same as he always has against Hughes, anyone who didn't see that outcome happening is retarded.

lol no, i'm only saying that because i'm an avid MMA fan. and also, because I see way too many people here underestimating BJ in this fight. point blank.
BJ should be working with Team Quest for this one. Sonnen, Linland, Hendo, Lawlor...
