One thing that I think that gives BJ the edge is his crazy monkey like stretchiness. He can pull a submission out of anywhere.

GSP won the last fight, I believe in a split decision. This should be another great battle.

I like BJ in this fight, his standing game is getting better he won against Shawn Surke be KO the whole fight was on the feet and BJ control the whole fight.

GSP did win the first meeting by split decision, but BJ is 10x beter than he was back then. i think this will be the best matchup in UFC history

I dislike both... and with that being said, I figure GSP has the advantage going in due to size and strength.

GSP has size and strength, but Penn can sit on the floor and without using his hands put both feet behind his head....i aint gonna say much more than that, you can get a chuckle from it, but that dude has ground skills

Penn did show a good standup game against the muscle shark, but GSP is a different animal.

If it stays on the feet, GSP. If Penn gets him to the ground then he will find a way. I say if because I think GSP has great takedown D.

and GSP has a great takedown defense. i have to favor Penn because he is by far my favorite in the UFC...but all i can say is this match can go either way, 50/50 chance for both fighters. it is gonna be awesome!!!!

Penn showed decent striking ability in their first fight and Penn has definitely improved on that aspect of his game.

GSP is an extraordinarily gifted athlete with KO power.

I think it will be a good fight. I want Penn to win but think GSP will win.
