As much as I dislike Hughes, I have not seen enough of BJ recently to believe he can beat Matt. My heart says "go BJ", but my head says "Matt will win by ground-and-pound". :-\ Matt is one tough bastard.

Good to see so many anti-Hughes people here! :D  Nothing personal, but he comes across as cocky even if he isn't.

i think Hughes will win this time, BJ doesnt seem to be as good as he was and Hughes is only getting better. BJ could shock us all and beat him again, but i just cant see it happening for some reason. GSP has the best chance of anyone to beat Hughes but i think Matt has too much for even him

So how about the way GSP acted after the fight, was that cocky enough, now not only does he have to fight Matt, but he pissed him off, smart move

I like how Matt said he was planning things to happen the way they did.  You were planning on being dominated for 2 rounds, almost being submitted, and having your oppenent gas?  Bullshit.

BJ kicked his ass for 2 rounds.  Separated his ribs and just couldn't fight inthe third.  He dominates Matt and in the rematch 100% guaranteed BJ will knock Matt out.

BJ was not gassed.  His ribs hurt so bad he could hold them up.  He wanted to tell his corner he separated his ribs but didn't.  He just couldn't handle the pain and defend himself.  In the rematch he will not give Matt a chance again.  In two fights BJ has kicked Matts ass.  He's not using the injury as an excuse but he was not gassed as most people think.  With a month of training for the fight he was in great shape.  COnsidering.

yeah...i didnt think he didnt seem gassed...even though hes a little chubby, hes still a cardio monster! matt got owned...and im glad. i just wish the finish was of different accord. i wish bj had pulled this one off too!

not a HUGE fan of penn...but he is a fun fighter to watch

matt hughes on the other hand...uggh..i could take him or leave him
