Pulling for Renzo thread

First off Im a very big BJ fan and have pulled for him in all of his fights all the way back to his mundial days and have been a fan since the days of hearing him getting down dojo style with the Morriera brown belt (cant remember his name)back in the day. The guy is gifted and with balls the size of bulldozers.(I dont know that first hand for all you trolls:) just a fan.

But in this fight Im pulling for Renzo Gracie, a true warrior and for myself (personal oppinion) the champion of the Gracie family. He has always stepped up to any challenge and has always been a inspiration to me in training in BJJ. Heart is with Renzo in this one.

I hope this doesnt turn into a kickboxing match but on the mat where both of these animals belong.IMO

Just My Oppinion

I like them both but I'm pulling for Renzo as well.

The fight is in Hawaii. And it is on the K-1 Rumble on the Rock card. I dont know when...

BJ Penn by arm pop kimura.

That is all.

Im really hoping BJ fights this match on ground cause I think his stand up is better than Renzo's, and would mean more to me as a fan if both these submission artist tried to beat each other by submission. Just an oppinion though, might not be the best strategy.

As a jiujitsu guy I was really dissappointed with the Penn/Serra fight because I was waiting for these two to compete against each other in BJJ and thought their fight would have been more of a ground battle, their fight was more of a stand up fight, go figure. Was a good fight though dont get me wrong.

I honestly dont see a way for Renzo to win. While he is one of the greatest grapplers in the world Penn is more apt to attempt submissions. I dont remember the last time Renzo has subbed anyone in MMA.

flesh-I think Renzo is going to be the smaller of the two no matter what the weight.

As great a guy as Renzo is, he doesn't train hard enough to beat BJ. His striking is below average, and BJ is, well he's BJ.

i'm pulling for Renzo. It's (almost) always great when the underdog pulls it off.

Let's go Renzo!!!

It would be truly amazing for Renzo to get the win. The smart money says BJ wins it.

Isn't the fight either June 30 or July 1st?

im for renzo

ttt for Renzo, my friend

Renzo is the man win or lose!

These are easily two of my favorite fighters. I want both of them to win, so all I can do is hope for a great back and forth fight with someone getting the finish at the end of the fight.

Go Renzo.

Renzo is cool as hell so I really want him to win this and to shut Penn up.

I can't see Renzo winning this fight.
