Yes dumbass - he was fighting at lw.

cool

 Another failed BJ hate thread....shocking from you sir.

in the span of 30 minutes you managed  to make 1 thread praising a legend and another thread shitting on one.



Exactly what's wrong with mma fans today




all i saw was threads saying bj will walk through nick. my point is he has not been successful at ww and not active at ww for the past 5 years.

Yup.

And he went 2-0 at middleweight, so.... Phone Post

3 losses to current and former champions while fighting out of your natural weight class, isn't exactly something to bash someone over.

what exactly is your point. He is a lw, and that one fight he won, was against Matt Hughes. If Matt Hughes went 1-3 at mw, but his one win was against Anderson Silva, would you then make a thread ragging on his mw record?


Do you even have the guts to defend your op?

BJ Penn has had 3 fights at ww, that no other lw has ever even come close to. He has 2 wins against Matt Hughes, both finishes. And a draw in his weird fight with Jon Fitch.


BJ Penn is 100% at this stage, one of the 5 best fighter ever. Easy to prove


wouldn't go that far top 5 ever?

1.Fedor
2.Anderson
3.GSP

You could make arguments for 4 and 5 being Shogun, Hendo, Couture, Liddell, Penn, Nog etc

Personally I think Penn is a bit of an enigma maybe too good to stay at LW but too short/lacking reach to challenge the welterweights of today. Not for lack of skill, he's got insane BJJ and great boxing and a hell of a chin.

But he lacks reach to get inside, Welterweight is full of great wrestlers that can nullify his BJJ advantage, and a lot of powerful stronger guys that he may not be able to handle.

And I personally Hate Penn's attitude I can't take his skills away from him I simply think he's too short/small to contend at WW against the newer generation of top guys.

GSP, Shields, Alves would have their way with him I feel.
That he fought Fitch to a draw is a testament to him.

That said 1-3-1 since 58 and 3 title shots and in the middle of yet another title push. WW division is deep they don't need to keep pushing him nobody wants GSP Penn 3

lol.

sound like a 12 year old. im just putting some reason into his nut hugging fans saying he will walk through nick diaz. fact is he has had 1 ww win in 5 years against an old hughes, not bashing just pointing out facts. he can beat nick but it will be a competitive fight with diaz having the edge.

A good post. Phone Post

Dead Roman - In dunno if you know this, but "getting inside" is something you do when you lack reach. <img src="/images/phone/post_tag.png" alt="Phone Post" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;"/>


Not if you're stuck at the end of a jab all night it isn't :(
