BJ Penn vs Fedor

[TKDsoldier]

If they were the same weight who would win?

Fedor ... Penn is a top p4p fighter in the world but I rank Fedor is the #1 p4p fighter in the world so that gives me my answer right there.

penn if he comes in shape

Thinking in absolutes is difficult lol...

I would say it like this:

Stand-up: Penn (slight edge)
Takedowns: Fedor (slight edge)
Takedown-defense: Penn
GnP: Fedor
Submissions: Toss Up
Gameplan: Toss Up
Cardio: Fedor

So that is a
Fedor 3 - Penn 2 - Toss 2

Fedor gets the Nod.

Penn... if they were the same size his dexterity on the ground gives him an advantage.

Fedor is ranked the best p4p for a reason, questions like this.

[CHUCKtheCHAMP]

fedor takes this.... penn is one of the best p4per's in the world...but fedor is the best p4p fighter in the world...

fedor is better at everything except maybe bjj/subb and flexibility...

people will say bj has better stand up, but fedor out struck cro cop...

fedor wins

How can you say Penn can take it, he would have to gain 60 pounds..I think that would be a horrible matchup. He would have a better chance fighting him at a middle weight. In the end though Fedor who win via murder.

The guy said "if they were the same weight" So I think he meant, weight not being a factor, or absolute | | weight.

Now hypothetically thinking that if BJ Penn and Fedor were of same weight, how do you believe the outcome would be?

I would say Fedor would still dominate if they were the same weight, BJ doesnt have the punching strenght Fedor has, I think Fedor could control his sub attempts as well, if he can stop Nog he could stop Penn. I would still hands down give this to Fedor.
