    You're right. They pretty much force GSP to talk shiit. He is a very disciplined and humble guy and talking shiit really isn't even in his protocol. GSP will talk **** before a fight (and he's not even really good at it) and then after he completely dismantles his competitor in the octogon, he shows more sportsmanship and humility than most fighters.

    Yeah, he has a HEAVY French accent, but so do alot of my friends in Louisiana. GSP has the Fleur de lis tat on his calf and I just pretent he's from Louisiana (even though he's Canadian). We're all Acadians afterall. I see him as one of us!:thumb:

    GSP by ko, tko or submission in the 2nd round.

    If by 15 lbs you mean 2 lbs at the weigh in, then you are correct. (GSP 170 BJ 168) :hihi: However, by fight time, GSP should probably have about 20 lb on Penn.

    If you watched the first fight, BJ Penn pretty much picked apart GSP until he gas'd.

    Striking - adv Penn
    Wrestling - adv GSP
    BJJ - adv Penn
    Endurance / Athleticism - GSP
    Agility - Penn

    A gargantuan matchup between 2 complete fighters....It'll be awesome. :thumb:

    Penn by TKO or GSP by decision.....I'm going to say GSP by decision just because he'll play it safe and rely on his wrestling... I wouldn't strike with BJ either. :lol:

    Besides the weight issue, I respectfully disagree with pretty much everything that you just said.:wink:


    My favorite: Agility advantage BJ Penn?:lol:

    wow. the stories i was hearing was that Penn was coming in very small. I am hoping that Penn can use that extra weight. However, his last 2 fights at 170, he lost.


    no matter, I still say it will be Penn.

    According to ESPN.com, Penn's corner stopped the fight after the 4th round. St. Pierre dominated.

    Well BJ does have 4 arms....

    Amazing fight from GSP. As good as BJ has gotten since their last fight, GSP just showed how high his ceiling is. Dude is getting insane.... I'm guessing we'll see an Anderson Silva vs GSP superfight in another year or so if they stay unbeaten.
