There was a lot of good knockouts in this card. I was really suprised on the way BJ dominated.
Joe Rogan: “Hey BJ, you have any comments?”
BJ Penn: “Yeah, Sean Sherk is dead.”
CLASSIC!
I think Jorge Rivera probablly got KO of the night. He blasted my boy Kendall OVER AND OVER, but that final left was a JAWBREAKER.
BJ showed a lot of class and a new found confidence in his new “abs”. He has always been confident, but this is definately something else. I think Dana has been giving the fighters the “legacy speech”, and for BJ, it set a fire under his ass.
Sean Sherk- You are on notice my roided out friend (fiend)
Lightweight divison- You are one notice as well
Welterweights- Don’t think you are safe from the wrath of the “Baby Jay”. He remembers (as we remember) his SIMPLE desimation of Hughes.
If he stays as focused and in shape as he was yesterday “across the pond”, everybody in MMA better watch out!
was anyone else EMBARRASED for that james lee as much as i wa i mea wat the f*** wa he doing it reminded me ov wen we was little an u used to hang on to ur dads leg an get pulled around haha what a loser.
BJ PENN= LEGAND
what is a legand? haha
Sean Sherk got booed. HAHA
Loved the way BJ brought it; Jorge was ferocious and Gonzanga was overweight and gassed, For a card that was a bit lacking in name fighters it had alot of good fights. Just proves that the matchup is more important than the fighters themselves.
It just pains me to see all you people who thought Stevenson had a chance now acting surprised that he lost. BJ was going to win this fight and there wasn’t a doubt in my mind. However, overall I was very unimpressed with the fight card and the UFC needs to do better than this if they want to continue getting my $50. How about Gonzaga though? Just goes to show you that all you who thought he was REALLY better than Randy and that Randy “just got lucky” that you are all loaded top to bottom with crap.
I love being right.
