anything can happen in the 1st round, but if it goes on to the 2nd you know that BJ will get gassed and Joe will win it. Its who is better conditioned for this fight.

he has a great chance at winning, you must be a fool to think he has no chance.

I agree Joe does have a chance, however you MMA logic is flaw, even the Joe beat people/blah that beat jens & jens beat bj ( once) Jens already beat Joe.

This fight is MUCH closer than a lot of Sherdoggers would make it seem. BJ will not outgrapple Stevenson as everyone seems to think he will. I see this fight potentially resembling the Curran-Faber fight, where the superior BJJ practitioner does not necessarily out-grapple the powerful, explosive, well-rounded mma grappler. The strength and skill of Stevenson could make this a seriously tough matchup for Penn, and I expect a great and competitive fight that most likely ends in with somebody finishing.

Joe Daddy has the strenght, the chin, great jujitsu, and a better nick name.

I think he will win.

You are an idiot if you disagree.

While I'm not an idiot, I do disagree with the TS. Penn's the better striker and the better ground specialist. Why then would I think that Stevenson was going to win?

I do not see how Joe can win this fight.

BJ Penn is easily a better striker and BJ Penn is easily a better submission grappler.... and BJ has good TD defense, so Joe's wrestling isnt going to be a factor.... The only place I give Joe a good advantage is in the GNP department. but he has to take BJ down first for that to matter
