BJ Penn Vs Nick Diaz - UFC 137

[flyinggogoplata]

Where did you read that ..............sbrforum?


Also clear how? I think whats clear is Penn wanted Condit instead of Shields or Fitch . At this point in his career I'm sure Penn is saying who he will and wont fight, he was suppose to have a rematch with Fitch......that disappeared, Shields called Penn out and Penn never signed a contract then all of the sudden he'll fight Condit .



Condit vs GSP isnt a big money fight imo

meh you almost trolled me but not quite.

Oh I get it, IWS still drinking the bj penn kool-aid carry on. But it's pretty clear the ufc is setting up Condit vs GSP

well he wont win that round anyways. Cecil Peoples is scoring this fight.

[flyinggogoplata]

sure is, leg kicks don't work in mma.

[edman5555]

Condit will stop bj for shooting after the first round with some nasty leg kicks.

crazy.

[edman5555]

we will get bj at a good line if we catch it quick.

I like Condit and he is a great fighter. That was a badass backroll sweep he hit on Kim. But this is horrible style matchup for Condit. Penn is better on the ground, has better takedowns, better takedown defense, and on teh feet it is close, I still think BJ is better though, and has the advantage of having an head made of bricks. BJ is going to win, and I will bet him at -150 for sure.

He just took 2 rounds off the #2 WW in the world. Condit has looked good recently, but BJ is BJ. Even though Condit is a cardio machine, he doesn't have the wrestling to tire BJ out IMO.

[SPX]

BJ would get back up in like .3 seconds.

[flyinggogoplata]

what if condit takes penn down? = mindblown

[edman5555]

oh btw, it seems like most of condits tko/kos are from landing punches. BJ's striking is mostly boxing and is very good.

[edman5555]

out of like 25 wins or so he has 24 by ko,tko or sub. He is a serious finisher. One of the best finishers at 170 probably. BJ is really tough though and he is def a better bjj player than Condit so he isn't getting subbed. Condits only way to win this inside the distance is by tko/ko and BJ isn't easy to hit on the feet. Most people can't stand with him. Look what happened to Diego, he landed like 10 strikes in 5 rounds. It was almost sad to watch. I do think it is possible Condit can drop him though..he goes all out. Though now that i think about it, he can't afford to be as crazy in this fight because he doesn't want to get taken down by BJ. Normally he doesn't care if he is taken down as much because he can just reverse/go for subs. That game won't work with BJ.

[SPX]

Not in the UFC. He lost a split to Kampmann and won a split against Ellenberger.

[poopoo333]

Condit has finished every fight but one iirc

[SPX]

Condit just finished a guy who has never lost or been finished. Is this bizarreo day?

Penn has only been finished twice in his entire career, by GSP and Hughes and the former wasn't even a true stoppage. He is NOTORIOUSLY difficult to put away.

Look, if Condit stops BJ then I'll bite my own dick off and send it to you in the mail. How is that?
