I've seen a number of guys choke out/dominate other guys in really exciting ways but I just felt like his behaviour was a bit off after the fight (assuming he didn't gas). I'm just concerned. I'll be rooting for him against Sherk, but we all know that he HAS to be in the best condition possible for that one. Paul – That’s true.

Then he was leaning on Herb Dean and Joe Rogan in the Octagon and looked wobbly walking back down the aisle. Did he dominate Joe? Yes. Did he have abs for the first time ever? Yes. Could he have lasted 5 rounds? Not a chance. Did anyone else notice than Penn laid down after the victory and had to be helped off the ground?

It's a bit of a blood rush to choke somebody out, but by no means did I interpret BJ Penn's actions as that of a gassed out fighter after the fight.</p> Gong, i don’t really agree.

He's different. The girth of his body alone will present different problems than the other solid wrestlers. The size of his neck makes it hard for submissions, and it seems like Sherk has more raw strength, whereas BJ has crazy technique. It will be an awesome clash of styles when they fight.

I really am not a bj nuthugger cause mans theres lots out there. I always respected him ,and always thought his first fight with pulver is one of the greatest,but i just never really cared too much for him. Yes, bj is amazing,and i think that if he was that focused,and conditioned at 170 he would be champion. Gosh! i sound like one of the nuthuggers, but yeah he is good. One of the best of our time.
