I believe that BJ has an advantage in striking, and here's why. He hits harder that GSP, (which i don't think is very debatable is it?) He no doubt has a better chin that's been tested up to 205, and other fighters have said it looks like he sees things in slow motion.
So ask yourself, can you really imagine GSP knocking BJ Penn out. Now ask yourself, can you imagine Penn Knocking St. Pierre out? The answer tells you who has the advantage in striking.
Who's better at striking i suppose could be a question to go on forever, but I believe the advantage goes to Penn. I believe Penn will win because he has more ways to do so, however, I also believe GSP could win this by taking BJ down and controlling him from top position. He did achieve his Blackbelt, so he should be able to avoid submissions from the top.
I can't see Georges finishing Penn unless captain pudgo returns to the welterweight division. Which I don't think is going to happen. BJ seems focused.

In the past Penn had some trouble with his cardio, and I know cardio training sucks....... GSP's cardio rules. Also I think GSP's striking is better and he is just as focussed as BJ.

I can see that happening if by the very rare chance that GSP hits BJ with a proper full powered overhand right to the sweetspot of his jaw. Will that happen? That remains to be seen but technically speaking BJ's boxing skills should keep him out of that kind of trouble.

So, I thinks BJ is in for a rude awakening.......
...sigh...BJ has had trouble with his cardio exactly twice in his career, even before he 100% dedicated himself to the sport. So I thinks you need to know your history before you post.
I'm not even going to touch the fact that you think GSP has better striking.
Oh man I am loving this thread - I'm only up to the 10th page and now I gotta start work damn it but this is just too entertaining and I'm gonna have to finish reading it tonight.
Just a suggestion, when someone does get really pissed off and goes into a diatribe can they please break it up with paragraphs. When sentences tend to blend into one another I tend to just skip through it and not read the post fully and may miss your valid argument.
BTW, I've said it before on a previous thread but GSP's wrestingly enables him to keep the fight standing or take BJ down if he wants. I'm not dismissing BJ's jits, however I just think that GSP has proven he can defend against good bjj and is unlikely to get swept imho, therefore GSP by tko or 5 rnd decision.
Just my opinion....no need to tell me my g/f is cheating on me....althought the dirty bitch probably is....i'm kidding, i don't have a girlfriend - unless my internet girlfriend counts.
dude, you buried this poor soul like 10 posts ago, you said it yourself, he sounded defeated, but damn, u wanna make him cry don't you? this thread should have been WAY better! instead of making solid arguments to debate the outcome,it's like 5-6 pages of fishy getting his ass reamed ( if your making shit up you deserve it tho!) it's as if intelligent debating is over,and just playground antics take over.We need to get palma a badge or something,cause he has my vote for forum sheriff,and his 0 tolerance for stupidness has made more than a few people think twice about posting stupid shit. hey if it keeps all the "ifights" out im all for it and he does enjoy my chemical romance------fuck em
To think he "won" such an internet argument or is the "sheriff" of an internet forum not only shows you're prolly 15 years old(or at least have the mindstate of one), but are mentally retarded as well. Now can you remove your head from someone's ass such as Palma who is a revenge of the nerds spawn who uses such forums to feel better about himself and literally has very little knowledge of such fighters as "rockhold" even though he claimed to have as such...But the knowledge was something I could've made up in my sleep. Thanks for playing. Keep up.

how can you expect anyone to take you seriously with "Sociopath" as your title?
I'm willing to bet if you wash the sand out of your cunt, people will be willing to start fresh with you.
Aw. How cute. Palma's b/f is calling people cunts but then trying his failed attempts at bashing...On the internet. And look...Another puppet to follow. Too many cock mooches on this forum. I guess they let anyone join. Palma was already made my bitch(proof of that was his childish remarks not understanding what I was saying because he had no comeback to any proof I was showing in PM's) and then TriangleChoke(his bitch) decided to join in on internet bashing because his lack of intelligence, showing of 'mma fighter knowledge', and lack there of getting laid shines just as well. I find it amusing how this went from my opinion on how certain people on this forum analyze fights like morons to my personal life which is not even evident as far as anyone "knowing me"...But hey, 4 have such amazing and entertaining lives. And I wiped the sand out of my "cunt" after I got off your mom. Cause even she had more interesting things to say when I was choking her. MUAH!

Awww come on brother don't be sore. Where's the love? It's nothing personal - I would have repped you had you come up with that quote but triangle beat you to it.
