    Aoki has shitty stand up. Penn would make him look silly and whoop his ass. If it goes to the ground then it will be interesting but bj should win this fight by KO.

    When comparing grapplers , you dont compare grappling in MMA , you compare what they have acheived in grappling not MMA

    In his relatively short grappling career BJ Penn became a black belt in 3 years under the renound Nova Uniao team and won the national championships as a complete novice black belt (in fact he entered as a brown belt and Nova Uniao had a grapple off to see who would enter from there team in there respected classes , BJ submitted there #1 black belt @125 lbs hence BJ was then awarded a black belt and entered the tournament as so) , as well as being a decorated Ralph Gracie student !!!

    If Penn continued his career in JJ he would be mentioned in the same breath as people like Ricardo Liborio today :deal

    Aoki is not and never has been at that sort of level in grappling terms

    Look mate , your an Aoki fan we get it !!! ........................... :lol::good

    And I get it too, BJ is an ATG grappler, but I was talking about the type of grappling they can bring to MMA.

    It just comes down to whoever impliments their game the best. Makes the person fight their fight, throw the other guy off his game.

    But Honestly Bj could Ko this guy in the first exchange. Cant say the same for Aoki.

    Looks like the Aoki supporters are at a solid 12%. That is where we want to be, like the green party, so when the **** goes down, everyone else will look pretty stupid

    lol, Just face it man Aoki is good but not good enough. But you know what I would'nt be surprised if Aoki pulls it off. Bj is a very on and off fighter.

    Who has BJ lost too, go have a look. If on a good day you think Aoki is in their league Id be interested to hear your views

    I don't find it that unlikely for Aoki to win by sub
