UFC 127

[SPX]

I heard no such report of him being 176 today. BJ weighed in at 167.

Just look at them. Fitch dwarfed him.

Somebody posted earlier about Fitch being 176. Maybe Edman? A consequence of the new diet, apparently.

And okay, 167.

lol, Dana White ducking the press conference.

Wow, look at the second round. They've got Fitch outstriking Penn 59/18. And I wouldn't be so surprised about about 2 of 3 judges giving that to Penn had it not been for the fact that I thought their earlier scoring had a strong element of "punch-counting" to it.

hmm.......... I gave it to Fitch but dont remember it being that one sided . I'll rewatch it tomorrow ,maybe

Credit for what? He got a draw against someone much smaller than him ,thats nothing to write home about .Not only that he let Penn take him down multiple times.

I scored the fight for Fitch but imo he looked like crap .


Fitch sucks ,BJ gassed ...........draw

You guys should post threads on Sherdog with this bullshit. Seriously, just a huge steaming load of cow manure in this post.

Wasn't Fitch walking around at 176 on fight day, or at least that's the report?

And BJ came in 7 pounds lighter. That's not "much larger."

But I will say that BJ needs to work on being a more muscular 170. I thought even before the shit started that he looked too fat.

I can't believe people are already saying Penn didn't win because he wasn't motivated and wasn't the "old BJ Penn". Give Fitch some credit

Did you quote my post, then ignore what I said?

Neither could pretty much anyone on the roster other than GSP or Jake Shields. For a guy who has a history of Cardio issues I think he looked pretty good after two grueling rounds with a known grinder.

Well, I see where you're coming from, I wouldn't say he looked "good" after the first two rounds. If Penn had tried the hummingbird route instead, he wouldn't have had as many issues with cardio. Who knows if he could have pulled it off, though? And if it didn't work, he would have lost his chance to come out of the gate strong and win the first round.

If he had been able to continue at the same pace in the third then he probably would've won the fight. He couldn't. It's the same thing that happened with GSP.

Clearly the BJ who came out for the first two rounds was a world away from the BJ in the third.

Other WW fighters like Mike Pierce, on the other hand, still were able to hold their own into the third round.

Why all the crap about BJ's cardio? He was forced to grapple with a much larger fighter. That's what happens.
