BJ Penn Vs Nick Diaz - UFC 137

[MMA_scientist]

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.

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

[edman5555]

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

crazy.

[flyinggogoplata]

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

[edman5555]

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

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

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

Although many called for him to retire from active MMA competition, fan-favorite, Mirko "Cro Cop" appeared on the Croatian sports TV show "Gol" last night to discuss his career and announce that he would be given one more UFC fight, and that will come in October at UFC 137 against Roy "Big Country" Nelson.

Loser leaves town match?

We all know Mirko's situation and Dana made it clear he was not pleased with Roy's last performance.

[Mr. IWS]

I love Roy in that one too.

[Ludo]

I'll take Nelson under -200 in that one.

[SPX]

Really? I was thinking this was actually a pretty good style matchup for Crocop. Roy's a guy with relatively poor takedowns and unsophisticated hands. All he has is big power.

I will be on Crocop as a dog.

[Ludo]

Roy has the durability to wade in and corner Cro Cop to land that big shot. We have seen Mirko chase people around as well which will give Roy opportunities.

[edman5555]

I honestly have no idea what happens in that one. I'm not even going to pick a side.
