I think this is a great fight for BJ. He's on a different level but Frankie is a scrappy fighter and he should by no means be underestimated in this fighter. I think/hope that BJ throttles him.

I think Edgar has no chance... Bj Penn is unstoppable at 155.. I only thought sherk was his only threat and bj dominated him...look for Edgar to b tko or sub by round 2
Possibly, but even if by chance he is able to take BJ down I do not really see him doing much with it after that, he won't be able to gnp BJ out, if he stays in a closed gaurd then BJ with his crazy flexibility will put him in rubber gaurd and neutralize any gnp or anything really that edgar may be able to do on the ground.
To be honest I am not sure what kind of strategy Edgar can put together for this fight, he has to come up with something but he has to know BJ will out class him in every aspect of MMA. I like Frankie but do not like him in this fight, I think with the modern day version of BJ Penn it is a no win for Edgar, good on him for getting up to the title shot though.
