[randay]

Pierre is out with an injury. Penn will fight Hughes.

Discuss!

 

[BW86]

Hughes all the way

 

[AUMM]

I'm a fan of Hugh's but I think it's about time he lost and recovered some of his humble ways.

Losing to Penn twice will do just that.

 

[Marinski]

Hard to call but i think Hughes will pummel him. Hes the best hes ever been.

 

[Riverhound777]

I'd go for Hughes to beat him much the same way that he beat Gracie. Ground and pound leading to ref stoppage.

I voted hughes by knockout before seeing the who cares option. WTF... who the heck is going to pay for that???

 

[wheresmybacon]

I want to see Pierre fight Hughes again. He was winning that last time before Hughes flexed his no-neck-omgwtfbbq wrestling skills on him.

Oh, and Hughes will beat Penn by submission.

 

[waggy]

yeah not a fight i care to see. i did get UFC 62. at least that had a few fights i wanted to see. i just do not care if hughes or penn wins.

 

[SP33Demon]

I think Hughes will win by knockout. Do people really pay to see this crap? They've basically turned UFC into high school wrestling with some punching after all the rules were changed (can't hit in the kidney, can't hit in the clavicle, blah blah blah). I miss the first 5 UFC's when it was really street fighting.

I would vote Penn just to shake things up a bit, but I just haven't seen enough of him recently to gauge his current ability. Hughes is probably going to be the man for quite some time.

im not sure on that. Before Penn got a stick up his ass and decided to not honor his contract with UFC he was great. hell he beat hughes.

though i could have sworn penn lost the title because of drugs but can't find proof anywhere now heh.

I think the only person that currently is a meaningful threat to Hughes is Pierre, and that's mostly because I think Pierre is a better striker, while at the same time being able to not get dominated by Hughes on the ground.

Hughes is an absolute beast because of his grappling and pure strength. He's become a much much better stand-up striker too. I agree with EvilYoda in that he likely will be around for a long time.

bahahaha

has sapp ever fought in ufc? i think i've only seen him in K1 and Pride

he's fun to watch

 

[randay]

lol sapp vs hughes? uh... sapp by crushing in the first round!

What a horrible ending to such a dominating performance by BJ Penn!! WTF MAN! I hate to see skill be beaten so horribly just because of conditioning.

It annoys me because it's a waste of talent. If you are that great, then stop being lazy and do some damn cardio. Penn is a very talented fighter, but he's lazy.

 

[torpid]

That's the UFC for you... a lot more chances to come from behind and win. Although certainly running out of steam in the UFC these days is a lot more ridiculous than back in UFC 3 with royce gracie about collapsing due to exhaustion because he was a 170 lb guy fighting a 250 lb guy.
