I'm going with Penn in this one, the first fight was close and I could totally see him using the loss as motivation and making the little adjustments needed to prevent those same mistakes that cost him the fight.  This place has mods??

Ha ha-- good point.

I am taking Penn also. I can't see him losing two fights in a row to Frankie fucking Edgar.

Allegedly, Penn was not 100% healthy going into the last fight-- I think if Edgar survives the first couple of rounds without the match being a laugher, he has a pretty good chance to win by decision. But, if BJ comes out and blows Edgar away in the first two rounds, but doesn't finish- I think BJ is going to abuse him ala Diego Sanchez.

Of course, if the fight is over quickly, I think it will be pretty clear that he was injured the first time around.

I think BJ all the way, but don't underestimate Frankie. The guy is legit!

As for Randy/Toney, odds are in Randy's favor, but I have a feeling that this one may be an upset...

I like all of the favorites--

If Toney beats Coture, it would be a huge blow to MMA imo. But, I highly doubt it will happen.
