Awesome, u just join the UFC Freak Club!!! :maul

St. Pierre vs Penn is going to rock, I love both of these guys and it's going to be skill vs agility!!! So BJJ expert and flexibility god versus the overall best athlete in the UFC!!!

Yes St. Pierre vs. Penn will be a very good fight and finally truly test GSP and Penn, both have beat the worthiest oponents in their weight classes so it's a perfect match for these two to fight, crossing fingers that Dana White makes this happen.
The fight i would like to see is Urijah Faber from the WEC come and fight either Penn or GSP, probably won't happen though.
They have many fights coming up that will definetly give fighters the opportunity to make a name for themselves like: Patrick Cote fighting Anderson Sylva, Diego Sanches vs. Thiago Alves and last but not least as yall mentioned Randy Couture vs. Brock Lesnar

Oh man I'm not sure about the Faber vs Penn or GSP, I'm thinkn Faber might get the short end of the stick, especially with GSP since he's a huge 175, Faber is quick don't get me wrong but every time a small guy goes against a guy with reach it doesn't end well for short round!

Yeah but just to see something crazy happen because faber's known for that.

Faber is way to light to fight either PENN and especially St. Pierre at 170. In my opinion PENN beat St. Pierre the 1st time out. This time I hope he submits his ass.

I like Penn and all but after the GSP vs. Fitch fight Joe Rogan talked to GSP then was walking over to talk to Fitch and Penn just came up and started talking and saying that he and GSP need to fight and Rogan never even got a chance to talk with Fitch because Penn pretty much stole the spotlight from him, i just thought that was kind of disrespectful.

I say St Pierre can beat the Shiznit out of both Faber and Penn.. Pierre just looks too focused after the Serra loss..

Personallyi would like to see Josh Koscheck get another shot at St. Pierre because out of Hughes, Serra, Koscheck, and Fitch, Koscheck has put up the best challenge and went all three rounds with St. Pierre and wasnt messed up at all.

That's definitely saying something also since GSP normally messes up ppl!!!

Yeah i really think Josh Koscheck would be a good fight because when he fought GSP he didn't you his ground skills and tried to stand upo with GSP, he didn't do bad but he's not know to stand up but known as a wrestler.

Faber VS Penn at 155 would be interesting.

As far as Randy's return to the UFC, he only did it because he would be tied up in court for the remainder of his career and never get to fight again ata ll, let alone against Fedor. HD.net tried to get involved legally in Randy's case and they lost in court. Randy's not dumb, he'll get some more big paydays from the UFC, and hopefully Dana will throw enough money at Fedor to let the fight with Randy happen.

Hopefully Randy has been training, he shouldn't have a big problem beating lesnar. Don't get me wrong, Lesnar is no joke, but Randy's experience should prevail. This is too soon for a title fight for Lesnar. Dana has been quoted as telling Lesnar "the UFC is no place to learn MMA and now he gives him a title shot?" Perhaps Dana is taking lessons from Vince McMann? Yes, big names make big money, but give some more thought and respect to the fighters.

For the record I think Joe Rogan rocks. Not only does he call fights well, he trains himself, and is no slouch at Ju Jitsu, so he knows the fighters and the sport. I often think Mike Goldberg kind of plays dumb sometimes to give Rogan the chance to explain things for newer less experienced fans.

I think that Lesnar doesn't know what's coming to him, i mean he fought Frank Mir and lost strictly because Lesnar's ground game is terrible and lack of expirience in MMA, wrestlers in MMA usually use there wrestling background to take down people and have take down defense, Randy Couture as everybody knows is very well rounded and has standup and ground game. Overall i think that Lesnar is definetly going to get tested with this fight but ultimately if Lesnar wins it's because Couture is simply too old. There's no question that if Couture and lesnar were the same age that Couture would win, but just because Couture is getting older doesn't mean he won't put Lesnar through hell so it should be a good fight.

 

[occulum]

Lesner will HAVE to knock Randy out early and fast if he wants to win this fight.
If it lasts longer than 30secs, Couture will win ...

I don't think Randy is going to be stupid enough to even give this guy a chance at knocking him out, Randy will probably take this fight to the ground or try and prove something to the UFC and stand up with Lesnar and show everybody that he can still hang!

 

[nash]

All randy has to do is avoid the huge punches, take down Lesnar and keep him down. Once the second round hits, Lesnar is tired.

It's not the first time Penn has said or done something ignorant, and I'm sure it won't be the last. AS for GSP vs Penn , no doubt it will be a good fight and my money's on GSP to beat him again. Hopefully Penn will keep his thumbs in and won't poke GSP in the eye like he did early in round one of their first fight. I think GSP did pretty well considering the fact he fought almost the entire fight with one good eye. I believe he also did the same thing to Sherk.

There have been many controversial fights in the UFC but GSP vs Penn was not one of them...it was a close fight, but it was unanimous decision, pure and simple.

Yeah i agree with you, but on another hand both fighters have improved their game big time, ecspecially GSP. If i had to put money on a fighter though it would definetly be GSP because he's just so diverse.


Also i think Nash is right, once the first round is over Lesnar will be tired and Randy will probably be around 85-90% where as Lesnar will be around 65-70%. So i think Randy definetly will have this fight.

Agreed, Penn's cardio. is vastly improved. GSP's cardio. as always been at the highest level so no improvement for him there, but every other aspect of his game has improved, and you know Greg Jackson will have the perfect gameplan prepared for him.

As for the Couture fight, Randy has so much more experience than Lesner and should make easy work of him....as long as Lesner doesn't catch him with one of those bombs he throw's.

Penn and GSp both have good cardio, but I think Penn's jab is better.

This quote sumed it up

Lesnar really needs to work on his defense and cardio, which I am sure he is vastly trying to improve on, since this will be his biggest fight yet... Since Neither Mir or Herring are on Couture's level of experience. But I do believe This match can go either way, random KOs do happen. But I too expect Couture to win. I know he just wants to finish up his contract with UFC, then leave the company asap.

 

[915stag51]

I say if Lesnar catches Randy with a straight shot like he did Crazyhorse, its over, we all know Randy has no Chin..

He worked Tim Sylvia over pretty well similarly. Though he did land a big bomb on Sylvia almost instantly which sure helped.
