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?

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.

It almost seemed as if BJ could have ended it at any time. Did Joe even try for a take down? That's gonna be Sherk's only weapon (plus laynpray) and we didn't get to see how BJ handles muscle-bound wrestling moves. Need to see BJ vs.: -Sherk/Edgar/Griffin/Ishida (same dif) -Florian -Huerta -Milendez Then, and only then, is he allowed to go back up to 170. That’s what I’m talkin’ about.

Give Egad a break. On second thought, maybe this was the critical thinking test, and Egad flunked. Maybe he'll have better luck with San Jose only promotions.

So now we have Werdum ranked higher in the division than Gonzaga with no hype surrounding him, another missed opportunity by the UFC. Why can't they build up fights and fighters properly, they gotta fire some guys and get in a better team to control this side of business. The UFC has a cracking heavyweight division and instead of excitement surrounding the fights and the fighters, the excitement is found in only the fights themselves.

Talk about the fights, please. How impressive was BJ Penn? Rivera learned some new tricks, eh? Did GG's lackluster performance diminish the significance of Randy's victory over him? Who's next for Marcus Davis. With hands like that, he deserves a chance to KO a contender, no? Ignore the egad-dufus. Talk about the fights, please.
