BJ seem to be talking again of fighting at higher weight again after he beat GSP(in his mind) But I would be interresseted to see a Franklin vs Penn down the road.. How would it go? It's not the best weight of Penn, but he is insanely talented and fought a good fight with Machida What would be the outcome for you?
Penn triangle/armbar in the second round, tapout 1:30 left. Franklin becomes the dreaded "gatekeeper" status from there on out.
Normally I would take Franklin over any normal 155 lbs, but the ****er of Penn ain't normal He would probably sub Franklin
Over 5 rounds? Franklin would wear him down and win a UD. 3 rounds, Penn might take a decision. I don't see either guy getting stopped. Maybe Penn could be stopped in a five round fight due to fatigue. Franklin is a really big and strong guy.
Good observation, I didnt think about the 5 rounders:think If Franklin can make the 3 rounds whitout being submitted and fight the fight a good space, he could stop Penn late but the scenario of a UD over 5 rounds is more expected
Id have to go with Franklin hed would use his size to wear BJ down. Franklin you gotta remember isnt a normal Middleweight he cuts quite a bit of weight.
