That's probably a good prop bet. Renzo is nails. The odds go up even more, because Renzo will not tap or quit. Hughes will have to make him go unconscious or have the ref pull him off. Renzo is insane.Quote:

So BJ can beat him even more convincingly this time?

Yep, but I have to wait until 10pm so I can catch the replay. It sucks, I have a powerlifting meet that day and I have to stay off the internet when I get home up to 10pm so the replay can be somewhat interesting haha.Quote:

I hope BJ's line gets better.
The standup in this fight is pretty close. Edgar I think is quicker and Penn has more power. If Penn gets on top, its a wrap, But I think Edgar can Hang with him on the feet and Be able to push Penn against the cage like Florian did and maybe win a couple rounds. I think this is going to be a close fight if it goes to the judges, but Penn has the edge because he is far more capable of finishing the fight. I have Edgar .5u to win 5.5u by decision.

They both whooped Sherk's ass, it's not like BJ pitched a no-hitter or anything like he did against Diego.
Frankie is definitely is faster and has great footwork.
At the very least he's not going to run in with his chin out and get knocked down in the first 30 seconds.
Not sure why everyone is so opposed to the great BJ Penn having a competitive fight.
Im suprised you guys think the standup is close. Especially basing it off Sherk, who Penn did an ethnic cleansing on while standing.
He really didn't.Quote:

The ethnic cleansing was against Diego, who he outstruck 150-8
