They don't got it like this in boxing.. Thank you UFC matchmaking :thumbsup It will be a stand up war like the Noons rematch.. Cannot wait.
Why is it that Diaz bitched and whined and cried that "The bigger guys is picking on the smaller guy" when Mayhem called him out for jumping him with his cronies yet AGAIN Diaz doesn't have a problem with fighting smaller guys himself. Noons was naturally smaller and again BJ is naturally smaller too. I hate Diaz for his whiney crybaby antics and his ******ed statements. As for Dana going back on his word of never dealing with Diaz again........ well thats typical Dana **** this time he didn't even make it through a week before going back on his word.
If BJ is smart he just takes Diaz down and ****s him up on the ground. Penn's better on the fit than Diaz but he'll be giving up plenty of height and reach.
I like BJ in this one. He's better than Nick in all areas except for kicks. Nick has never been one to use that to his strengths so I expect to see him get outworked by Penn and possibly getting KOD or TKOD.
everyone always thinks Diaz will be exposed. The reality is his unorthodox style works for him in MMA because of how active he is and because he can usually take the other guy's punishment more than they can take his. he will bully Penn around without an issue.
I agree with most people here, much better matchup, have to give Diaz a chance in this one, there is no one at WW that looks like they can beat GSP
Bully Penn? Yeah not a chance bro. Penn will outstrike him with quicker, shorter, straighter and more accurate punches....and once he stuns him he will take him down and finish him
Bj should have better boxing and jits than diaz but diaz is bigger and fitter and i think he has youth on his side too. Great fight, I just hope BJ comes in shape and ready to battle, otherwise he'll have a bit of success but will lose to the high octane style of Diaz.
You're a boxing fan and you favor the guy who's 6'1" and fights 5'6" like a MMA version of Paul Williams? Penn is faster, hits harder, has just as good a Chin, and he actually moves his head and counters with concise shots inside or out. Diaz just floats that lazy jab out there and throws endless pitter-patter punches. I'm sure Diaz will land leather but most of the time he's fighting shot has-beens or never-weres that fold under that sort of pressure. This time he's actually fighting someone that can box.
diaz can use his range better than you make out and dont go on about penn like he is the next coming of floyd mayweather, he is good at countering the likes of sanchez and sherk, he will have his moments but diaz is far fresher and size will play a big part as will hunger and motivation and physical fitness, btw you telling me noons and daley have **** hands
