His stand up was so piss poor he actually made Hughes look like a boxer out there, pathetic.

    Almost forgot, like someone above mentioned, how the hell do you ask for help up from your opponent? Ive never seen that happen before and I still cant believe it.
    Agreed on all points. Hopefully, Dana and Joe give Hughes a rematch against Thiago Alves next so, I can watch Matt get destroyed again.

      Well here starts Frankie Edgar's funeral. I dont see anyway Edgar has a shot here. Edgar isnt even as good as Penn's last 2 opponents and he walked right through them so unless Penn decides to just beat him up on the feet for 5 rounds this shouldnt last all 5 rounds or even close to it.

        I think Matt didn't want to hurt Renzo. Hence the reason why he kept backing up, especially in the 3rd.

        They're good friends that were asked to fight to have the "Legend" status stamped on it. You can tell Matt started taking it easier and easier on Renzo when he realized he was gassed.

        Then in the last minute, he went all out so the crowd and reviews wouldn't be so bad. Thank goodness Herb stopped it.

          You're selling Edgar short.

          Yes, Frankie will probably get obliterated.. but I would've taken him over Diego. Him vs Kenny is a 50/50 fight.

          Diego's standup is awfully predictable. His wrestling is no where near Frankie's.

              Well obivously we have different opinions then. I take Diego and Florian over Edgar anyday. And even if Edgar's wrestling is better, he has to be able to take Penn down and who was the last one able to do that? GSP? To say Penn's stand up is predictible isnt true either, otherwise it wouldnt be nearly as effective as it is. We will see shortly but if Edgar wants to stand then let him, if he wants to take it to the mat then good luck as I dont see Edgar being remotely as good as Penn in either area.

                I'd like to see Penn sub him in under a minute. He could if he wanted to, but he prefers to stand for a show.

                  Edgar isn't going to be able to take down BJ, nor is he going to be able to strike with BJ. Neither could Diego and neither could Kenny.

                  What I am saying is that Diego's standup was predictable as hell and BJ and everyone else knew it. Diego's wrestling isn't even close to Frankie's. The only thing Diego would have over Frankie is better BJJ and more size.

                    Apologies, I misunderstood then, I thought you were saying Penn's standup was predictible.

                    After thinking about it, I would probably take Edgar over Diego as his stand up is so bad that its a major handicap. I still take Florian over Edgar though.

                      Hell, Frankie has done more then Diego and Kenny combined in 1 round.

                      He probably lost round 1 due to the shots that BJ landed, but Frankie is doing good right now.

                            Solid round be Edgar, I still see it 20-18 Penn but Edgar isnt looking as bad as I thought he might.
