Who will BJ fight now that Fitch is out?

[caleb_forrest_g]

condit, rumble or brian ebersol lol

[rekcutnevets]

I would like to see Penn vs a lot of people.

1st would be Alves. Next would be Koscheck, then Condit. I would also like to see Penn vs Maynard at 155.

Id like to see him test his skills against a pure strikers like Thiago.

Interesting concept

If you have followed Penn's career you'll know that nobody will ever know where Penn is mentally , thats the beauty of BJ Penn , he comes in to fight John Fitch a monster in comparison to Penn size wise and controls him for two rounds mainly from top position whilst edging the stand up exchanges too . Who expected that

Penn does not need Alves right now in his career , Alves Condit should be made yesterday

It's what makes Penn one of the most frustrating fighters of all time.
Motivated Penn
Focused Vitor
and I'll add "Healthy/in shape" Shogun to that list as well.
