Marinovich Brothers are Gone and a Lazy Penn accepts Rory's Challenge !

[Dicker410]

Rory has but one loss to Carlo's Condit by TKO (punches) with 7 ticks left in the third, and has no means fought the best in the WW division but that was 2 years ago . So when Penn accepts his challenge does he realise without a doubt, MacDonald is one of the most promising young fighters in the UFC, with wins over the likes of Nate Diaz and Che Mills.

Penn just lost to guy who stands in the pocket waiting for abuse and at best took one round off of him . To me it doesn't seem logical as Penn who doesn't like to be pushed as we know by firing great people in his camp that had tried. My take , I won't be pushed therefore your fired !

No one likes to see a fighter fight past their prime ,but here we go again . This is going to be so lopsided will Rory even break a sweat? Yes that's how easy I think this fight will go.

Penn hasn't been particularly impressive ever since he lost his lightweight title !

So its BJ Penn back in the Octagon to face Rory MacDonald at UFC 152.This is the stupidest move by BJ in awhile but he has never been immune to them.

Rory Mac vs. B.J. is an awesome fight is someone idea of a good dream . Not only does Penn not belong at 170 , but against Rory is a death wish IMO

BJ Penn is one of my all time favorite fighters but why did it have to be McDonald?



Best I hope for is Rory puts on a great show and when Condit / St.Pierre happens in November one of these guys will bypass Hendricks and give the true challenger a shot.

Strange choice for Penn to make. He should return at 155 minimum. Rory walks around at 200 and is a young talented beast. Zahabi and GSP will make sure Rory provides a bad night for Penn. Penn has a chance of course, but as always it will depend on which Penn shows up. Odds favour Rory.

Penn needs to be on top of his game. Mr.66 hit the damn nail on top the head from a cross the room with his eyes closed. I agree Penn at 155...you got a chance...170...bad news going against the guy GSP says will be the man at 170 as he continues to get better!

On point Mr. Grimm.

IMO bj should have took the fight against melendez for the belt......

i dont see bj winning and i dont really know why he is fighting again he lost interest and to me this is even worse then a physical injury.

On the other hand though, bj hates gsp and he knows the only way he has a shot to even come close to resembling a fight with gsp is to fight macdonald so maybe we will see bjs last stand i dont know i love bj penn but i dont think he should have took this fight.
