This is going to be the best fight in UFC's history IMO. What are your thoughts on the outcome?

This fight is almost impossible to call but I'm rooting for Pierre. BJ Penn is amazing but he's a little too cocky for my taste.

I dont think id call it the best fight in history, BJ is the man! but id be curious to see how well he does against someone as rounded and freakishly strong as St. Pierre.

Either way gonna be a hell of a fight:D :clap:

:werd: St. Pierre is a freak of an athlete. Rooting for our Canadian Boy. Not to mention the fact that he is a former National team member :thumbsup:

St. Pierre is incredible. The first time I saw him was in UFC 50 and he was incredible. He lost in submission but he still performed incredibly.

My money is on St. Pierre -- Penn is a machine but after watching his loss to Ryoto Machida in K1 Hero's....

Should be a good battle but I think Georges will have the best of him.

Penn is like Frank Shamrock. Overhyped. He beat one good opponent on his worst day and decides he's the best and there is nobody left to fight. Huges didnt even show up to fight when Penn won. He needs to stop riding his whole reputation on that one fight. At least, unlike Scamrock, he's willing to continue fighting and take on good opponents.

BJ is good, no doubt about it, he could sub 98% of the WW division anytime anyday, but when your going against someone like St. Pierre or Hughes, again, its gonna be a fucking war.

I dont think theres anyone else in the UFC who will give him more of a run for his pride then those two.
