Thoughts on Condit vs Penn?

Hoping Condit ends up with another knockout to ensure a title shot.

[Hitoshura]

Can't wait for that fight too, goddamn these upcoming UFC's are going to be cannot miss.


Also.. do you guys agree with this?

"I think people like that are losers because, in my mind, a fight's about winning, not about putting on a show. We're not singers, we're not actors, we are mixed martial artists or fighters or athletes, whichever way you wanna do it and that's about winning ... When you're fighting for 25 minutes, every fan and their mother can talk shit about this and that and don't finish fights. Well, why don't they get in there and fight for 25 minutes? That's a long time. And you got to win before you show. I mean, people that show on top of winning, say Anderson Silva, that dude now he's a showman but he's also won, what, 13 fights in a row? So, obviously, he can do it. And there's people like Leonard Garcia who goes out and puts on a show but he's like 3-5 in his last 8 fights. Like, c'mon dude."

Ben Askren is a douche, I really hope this clown makes it to the UFC to get smashed.

Penn wins if he uses his wrestling but if he tries to only box he will probably lose. I think the only chance of a KO is a perfect knee by condit.

Penn's chin is nothing to scoff at. If Condit takes this it's by gassing BJ.

[AidenCarby]

Guess it all depends on how motivated BJ is :\

[Xno Kappa]

"motivated BJ" lol

i don't think Penn has ever even been knocked down from a strike

[Hitoshura]

I met BJ yesterday at the airport in LV, he's quite motivated.

[Andalusian girls]

lawlz iunno if Penn can win this fight, and Condit has some good firepower, but the man's never been down from a strike, ever, and look at who he's fought. i don't see a knock out loss happening.

and it ain't for a while, and 134 is pretty brilliant too, but what they announced for 136 is awesome

Overeem has been pulled from the Strikeforce GP because he didn't want to compete in the September card.

[Xno Kappa]

Probably isn't going to have his cycle clean by September.

[Rhyis.]

Reem thinks he's Tyson now and wants to get into boxing.

[Xno Kappa]

Shit's a shame too. Not like the SF HW title meant anything before the Zuffa purchase but shits even more worthless now, and this solidifies this GP even being more pointless. Reem is ducking hard as fuck, nigga got exposed in his fight against Werdum and wants everyone to forget about that shit before he gets back in the cage. Might as well liquidate and merge Strikeforce into the UFC now.

Sad thing is they'll probably make the winner fight Overeem for his belt once it's all over before getting a shot at the UFC HW title.

man, jones really needs to learn to give a good stare down because it's so damn awkward when he does it.

[quannum]

thats just what happens when you try to stare down an alffa

He just looks bored, I don't think he really gives a shit about this type of showmanship.
