Yeah, I still don't see how people think it was controversial. BJ won the first round, GSP won rounds 2 and 3. Several fighters in the weeks following (even Hughes) said GSP won the fight.

People look at how much damage gsp took in 1 round and equal that to a loss. There were two more rounds after that

It would be a much better poster with GSP on it.

If Penn wins the WW belt, I see him attempting to hop weight classes again and trying to go after Anderson Silva's belt.

If Penn loses to GSP, I doubt he would be motivated enough to train properly for Florian
I don't think the UFC would let him move up to middleweight. It will hold up two of their best divisions.

I want BJ to win, but I want BJ to stay in LW to defend his belt against Florian, and GSP to defend his at WW against WW's.

its a shame how long Florian and Alves needs to wait.

I wish BJ would just stay at LW. I'm sick of him moving around thinking he's tough.

Penn belt is written like KFC. Poor BJ, people think you are a god. This is like the story of Titanic, designers claim that no one can sink that ship but in it's first trip it just sink!!! BTW GSP will destroy PENN and ALVES

UFC 98 would be an excellent time for Alves' title shot and I cannot wait to see who he will be facing. Nice photoshop work with the poster.

Penn vs KenFlo for the LW title can be the co-main event
