I hope it goes 3, but I think BJ will take him out in the 1st. KO son!
Depends which BJ shows up, hopefully he lives up to his nickname and "The Prodigy" shows up. If not, I could definitely see Hughes overwhelming BJ. I just hope BJ showcases his ground game and natural flexibility because that's what we all love to see out of him!
As much as I want Penn to win, I have Hughes getting him by decision.
Agreed, I want Penn to come in the animal he used to be and win this one but I have my doubts that he will.Quote:

I think hughes is on a winning streak, bj been off. Hughes by decision.
could go either way really, I find it impossible to make any real accurate predictions on this fight.
i know that eddie and bj have been in contact with each other but does bj utilize the 10th planet system?
Not very effectively although you'd think he'd be the perfect fighter to take that shit to the next level.
matt..im betting its going to be just like that last fight with edgar..bj on his back "trying" to do something with matt on top shutting down his bjj and pounding him...win by dessision..but matt does have a better chance at getting a tko then edgar i think
but it also depends on if penn shows up like he did last time...if the old penn the more aggressive penn shows up i think he has a beter chance to win by submission..or tko..i cant see him knocking out matt
i see matt by decision
Bj uses his jj to get back up and bang. I havent seen Bj really use jj in years. Hope he brings that shit back. I might be wrong but isnt Hughes chin suspect. I want Bj to win but he has to show up to fight.
BJ's said he went back to more "old school" training which I hope means a focus on his jiu jitsu roots. I think BJ has better stand-up and obviously much better jiu jitsu; I think Hughes is going to have the better conditioning and good enough wrestling to take down BJ this time. As usual, I think the further the fight goes, the worse it is for BJ. If BJ doesn't get the TKO or submission by the end of the second round, it's going to Hughes by decision. I think Hughes will try to smother BJ against the cage to avoid his boxing and he'll use his size against BJ to wear him down GSP style. It's up to BJ to use his boxing and takedown defense to prevent that and if he can't it's gonna be a long night for him.
That said I love BJ, I'll always be a huge fan, and he's coming off some painful losses so my call is: BJ in the second round by RNC.
i think that hughes will win because hughes will have around a 10 lb advantage on him because bj is goin into the fight at 165 and in between the weigh ins and fight night hughes will probably be back up to 175 or so. Also hughes has a great ground game just looking at his last submission win over ricardo and he is on a winning streak so hughes is feelin good right now. I feel like this will be a great fight and if the aggressive bj penn shows that night then he could take the win from hughes but if the same bj shows up like his last two fights, then i have hughes winning. Either way im pumped to see it.
Matt via ground n pound!
BJ's coming off 2 losses. He's going to be in beast mode. I say BJ within two rounds. Sub or TKO
BJ> submission beginning of 2nd round. 1st round will piss him off when Matt shuts down his initial game plan. BJ comes into the 2nd round pissed off at Edgar and takes out his waterboy agression on Matt. Triangle or Arm Bar.
"Tacklin' fuel!"
please, please, please BJ Penn!
this is going to be both of these fighters last "big" fight of there carreer's in my opinion
im actually kind of scarred to watch this LOL
penn by unanimus decision
i just cant see either of these dudes getting ko'd or submitted
potenially be a emotional rollercoaster of a fight
but fight of the night im looking towards either rampage machida or georges fight
oh yeah cant wait to see karo parisyan back on the maincard again later!
I always judge if BJ is gonna win a fight by looking at his stomach. So far the stomach doesn't lie. Lets see how he looks at the weigh ins.
