Carlos Condit vs. BJ Penn agreed for October!!!!

This is on the undercard of Diaz - GSP
Thats gonna be a great card regardless of who else fights

 

Very good fight. Much like Hendo/Fedor, I hope it doesn't hit the ground and we see some questions answered.

 

What questions?

 

On I know I've been a fanboy of certain fighters recently but lets be real for a second... BJ Penn can without a doubt win this fight in spectacular fashion. He seems so much more focused these last few fights (even the Edgar fights, he just couldn't adapt) and arguably won the Fitch fight. His boxing, in my opinion, is better than Condit and his jujitsu superiority is a no brainer. This is his fight to lose. Condit though, has a very good arsenal of his own. This fight should be a gun fight to the finish.

 

No way Penn goes the distance

 

I don't think so. His chin is iron platted too. I think he'll pull a sub in the 2nd.

 

It's a very good chin, but he hasnt faced a one shot ko artist since Pulver, and this isnt the same Penn anymore

I dont think he'll ko him, but a tko is more than likely

 

You think Condit is going to TKO Penn? has Penn ever even been rattled by a shot?

 

Hughes aside, the last two WW's BJ has faced

And these two arent exactly ko punchers are they

 

Condit doesn't have the wrestling to control BJ on the ground like they did. You do know who GSP and John Fitch are right? The 2 worst guys stylistically for a lightweight to move up and fight :deal It would be like a WW moving up to fight Chael Sonnen at Middle.

Can Condit take Penn down and control him like that?

 

He wont need to, he will out strike him first and punish him when he fades later in the fight

 

These are Actually the last 2 WWs BJ has faced. Both top 10 fighters at the time:

If that happens, BJ will take him down and get top control..then most likely back control. BJ has taken Fitch and GSP down, he will be able to take down Condit if the stand up isn't going his way. And then Condit is on the ground with BJ on top. Good luck to him. :yep

 

As I said he will out strike him 1st.

 

That's a nice fairy tale
