1st comment all right. Meow. BJ will win this fight he is to big compare to Pulver. I hope BJ really break Pulvers arm with an arm bar. BJ’s voice sounds so gay. But he is d man in 155 no doubt.

Bj needs this win, because if he gets another loss, this might be the beginning of the end for him in the UFC….

Yeah cool men….. tell yo sister i said hey. LOL

I don’t know why they need to try and hype up the bad blood. It’d be a good fight even without the theatrics.

“He was beaten in their first meeting. Then, beaten in ping pong. Now BJ Penn looks to even the score with the man who has taken advantage of him twice”.

i really want pulver to win, but at the same time i don’t see him becoming a force again where as a fight between Sherk and BJ would be a great match up worth main eventing at sherks rate of recovery UFC 97

BJ Penn is gonna kill Pulver. I honestly feel sorry for him, it’s not a fair match up. He does not even have a punchers chance. BJ can handle Hughes like an amatuer, what makes you think Sherk will put up a fight? LW is a joke. All he needs is GSP, that is teh fight BJ is really at fault for, his conditioning lost if for him in that fight, that is the only fight BJ has had poor conditioning for. He does not have a conditioning problem. Looks mean NOTHING. I saw from his neck up anyways on his sites instructional video and he looks way skinnier anyway. But his conditioning is fine. He will go all three rounds if he wanted to no problem, all five if it comes to that. But if he dosnt beat Pulver in teh first 2 minutes, ima be mad.

guranteed it will be the end. Losing two in a row to big names like Hughes in GSP is one thing, but a third loss to PUlver would brand him as a second tier fighter. The UFC is making no room for second tier fighters. With all the free agency signing, etc. They need no has beens. Although the Shamrock thing is trippin me out. BJ will not lose

QUESTION UFCMANIA or anybody.
On the UFC site it says it is at 9pm ET/PT. Does this mean it is not live?? I have direct tv so it will be at 9pm on spike non-live or what?

This will be Pulvers last fight.

Next to fedor BJ’s the best pound for pound fighter in the world. BJ’s going to pulvierize Pulver!

I cant stand this “they hate each other” angle. They could hate each other or be boyfriends, i wouldnt give a damn. BJ is a fleeting champ and Pulver is a washed up nobody. Thank goodness its free.

I’d like to point out that I would destroy either of them

in ping pong.

LOok at this!!!! BAck to the head

You mean this time BJ will actually show up for a whole fight and not fade away when the going gets tough ala Pulver 1, GSP and Hughes?

Another event called “bad blood”? hahaha, uncreative losers.

WRONG
Pulver 1 - Pulver saved by the bell as BJ locked an armbar. Should have been over there. Then Pulver just out boxed him, points style. Didnt hurt BJ one bit, BJ did not gas.

GSP - Penn’s first UFC fight in years, cage rust, i’ll give that to you. The way he handled GSP in the first while fresh, makes me baffled as to how people think Pulver has a chance.

Hughes - Are you kidding me? Do I even need to explain about the first 2 rounds, flawless for Penn, and then the rib? It takes a handicapped Penn for Hughes to be able to do anything.

But BJ is the ‘prodigy’ right? So he must be THE MOTHA FU$%ING GREATEST and not have to do cardio…

If jens wins this i will be shocked.

To even be considered in the conversation of top pound for pound fighter in the world, you can NOT lose two fights in a row. That’s what BJ did.

Did anybody watch the special that aired last night on SPIKE? BJ looks like he has actually dropped some of that weight, you can even see a six pack trying to come out, he said this is the hardest he is working on training and I believe him….

Why, Randy Couture did several time in his career. In fact he is 15 and 8 yet is considered one of the best there is and ever was.

Great point. I still think BJ would be the top p4p(with the only possible exception being Fedor) if he got his conditioning in line. And no matter what, his performances against GSP and Hughes still show he is a top contender. I think he takes Pulver easily this time around.

I’d love to see Penn get beat again. He loses a lot lately for such a “legendary” fighter. Call me unimpressed.

FOr one, BJ’s first octogon fight was not against Hughes. That’s plain wrong. It was against GSP at 58. He fought Hughes in sixty something. So i’m right about that. Which means im most likely right about everything else as well ; )
Nah BJ lost to Hughes yeah but seriously, you have to take in the considerations of what was happening in that fight.
BJ dominated the whole thing adn treated Hughes like an amatuer until the FLUKE rib injury. BJ proved he is by far the better fighter and would beat Hughes any given day without a fluke occurance.
I mean c’mon, are we debating the quality of fighter, who is better and would win, or the numbers that make up there record, and the % of wins and losses? Those numbers do NOT say it all. They say very little just to look at there record. Hughes’s record is great, but dailymotion him, half of his wins are in the underground companies before UFC, fighting which looks to be llittle kids compared to him.

I don’t give a rat’s ass Penn “lost” to Hughes. He already showed he can handle that fool with relative ease. And he also showed a fresh Penn can handle a GSP. After GSP and Hughes, what else is there you need to prove in the Welterweigt or below? If that is unimpressive to you, then Fedor is a chump who ducks real competition.

Hughes was beating Penn in the second round until Penn got his back, which he survived and was almost out of before the horn. Hughes definitely has what it takes to beat Penn, Penn is a very tough guy and style wise matches up well against Hughes but you are severely underestimating Hughes ability. You are totally discrediting Hughes win by stating it couldn’t have happened without the rib injury, you don’t know that, he very easily could have got him down again without Hughes making another mistake(letting Penn get his back) and pound him senseless. Penn is a great fighter but his fight with Jens and Serra sheds some light on his invinsibleness. If Hughes and Penn fought again or Gsp vs Penn I would put my money on Gsp and Hughes, Gsp would beat him badly and Hughes would most likely ground and pound him, similar to there first fight. Hughes beat Penn convincingly to me, I don’t give a f**k about the broken rib, Hughes took him down in the second and was pounding the shite out of him before Penn turned things around and got his back. I think Penn and Hughes are close but I think Hughes has the edge, and Gsp is much better than either.

I go where BJ does,POINT BLANK!

[quote post=”2469″]Hughes was beating Penn in the second round until Penn got his back[/quote]
So what your saying is, Hughes was winning until BJ started winning? haha bottom line is, BJ out skilled and beat him both 2 rounds. Hughes does not have what it takes to beat Penn.

Are you kidding me? Did you watch the Hughes/Penn fight?

No I’m not kidding, and how would I know Hughes was beating Penn for almost half of the second round if I didn’t watch it. Round 1 hughes is mainly the aggressor going for unsuccessful take downs and losing the stand up battle, still fairly close. Round 2 Hughes gets Penn down almost right away and hold him down and pulls him into the corner and tried to ground and pound him, misses with an elbow and Penn gets his back. Hughes successfully avoids Penn getting his back and makes a mistake allowing Penn to get him in a triangle close, Hughes is getting out of it as the Horn blows. Round 3 Penn is obviously different, he’s winded or something(broken rib from attempting to get Hughes back) Hughes out boxes him, takes him town, pins his arm down and pounds his head until Big John stops it. How the F**k was that a one sided fight? It was back and forth Penn doing a great job of stopping Hughes take downs, if thats called beating the crap out of Hughes you have a strange view of a beating, he was more neutralizing Hughes than dominating him. Penn is incredibly difficult to take down, St.Pierre couldn’t get him down in the first round, same as Hughes but they both got him down in the second. If Hughes wasn’t so freaking strong Penn Probably wouldn’t have injured his rib going for his back. I definitely don’t see things the way you do, Hughes is a top fighter like Penn. Gsp, Penn, Hughes are all in the same league to me with Gsp being the best all around. If Penn is the super being you seem to think he is why did he lose 3 out of 4 fights?

Your asking me if I watched the fight? LOL you must have blacked out when Hughes was beating Penns face in the third, hate to be the one to break it too you but Penn lost that one pretty bad, totally defenseless and all because of a …………broken rib, because if you have a broken rib you can’t fight anymore…if your a pussy.

Look taht is what we are currently arguing. Dude. Round one, BJ agresses but when you are the one trying to keep it a striking battle you gotta be careful not to get carried away cuz your watching for the takedown. Round one BJ rocked him more than once. Round 2 he got carried away, Hughes took it down and threw a couple very non damaging elbows. Finally overthrew one and Penn took his back. That my friend, is a win for Round 2 for Penn. Your wrong, and judges agreed with me.

What am I wrong about? I AGREE Hughes lost rounds 1 and 2. I just think it went back and forth more that your trying to imply and Hughes WASN’T destroyed in rounds one and two, give me a break. Round 1 Penn won… close one though, round two Hughes starts off strong but almost loses at the end of the round but survives, Penn wins again. Round 3 Penn is in a bad situation but doesn’t survive and loses…Hughes wins fight. Sorry but I saw that fight as anyones fight, hence it was called the fight of the night, one sided fights don’t get that award, enough about this already.

You both have good points but you haver missed the #1 most important factor that neither Penn nor Hughes understand.

Penn is just play acting and understands it’s just a movie and he is just an actor. His brief marriage to Madonna will not save him.

The fact that he changed his name to B.J. is only to distract us ie. the initials BJ make me want one.

Combine this with the fact that Matt looks better in the Borne series than his weak attempt at Ultimate Fighting and I rest my case.

I wish these fighters would just stay real!
a

GO PULVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course B.J. won. There was no way Pulver could compete with B.J. at his CURRENT state. When Pulver defeated Jen once by judge decision it was just by luck. Penn wasn’t himself. Every fighter has their bad days but when they fought for the 2nd time, both of them were fighting at their best…Pulver was just overwhelmed.

Either way, that was an action packed fight

fight was rigged……pulver pulled penns hand around his neck like he was instructing penn to go for the submission then bj purposely kept choking after the tap, pulver threw the fight and penn knew it was happening. what a dissapointment……………

pulver got beat but i’m still not impressed with bj’s record or amount of fights however pulver was rocked and penn dominated the whole fight i thaught penn would be knocked out pulvers ground defense was impressive so everything that was said was opposite

this fight was rigged pulver pulled penns hand around his neck for the submission then bj purposely kept choking after the tap, pulver threw the fight and penn knew it was happening. what a dissapointment……………

Did anybody see the comments on Bjpenn.com before they got pulled? I assume they were flaming diatribes because Penn didn’t think Pulver would take the loss with such grace.

Of course I absolutely did not think that Pulver would ever dominate any round, I was just afraid that BJ would run out steam by the 2nd or 3rd round. Redemption is sweet… BJ Penn still is the best and smarter fighter around.

i think bj was robbed outta his last couple fights, look like he threw the fight with gsp, first couple rounds he was just toying with em and jus watching the clock run out, did you see after that fight, he walked straight up to dana and matt, matt didn’t wanna look and Dana was just nodding his head like it was a setup, if he made gsp look stupid,then what does that make matt look like.

Breaking news. Jens Pulver broke a rib during the fight. Otherwise, he would have won the fight…easily.

pulver aint nothing, have you seen matt’s face in disgust, i gotta admit penn wasn’t in his best shape before, but he was a lean mean machine dis time around, b’s making a comeback,i guess bj didn’t wanna make it look to easy and just being more cautious dis time around.

pulver got dominated period his left arm was trapped he had nowhere to go so he brought his right arm up to try to stop the choke but he couldnt and penn held him in the choke showing him that he could kill him if he wanted to lol

I have to agree about the rigging, you can see in Penn’s face at the end of the fight. He, himself, was shocked at the way it ended. Its almost like Pulver threw the fight,since he knew he was leaving the class anyways. Penn has really good ground game, but he still needs to have some more fights, so he can live up to the hype that is surrounding him so early in his mma career

Somebody is watching to much WWE, I hardly think these fights are rigged.

yo in the start of the bad blood episode what is the very first song they play that song sounds really tight
