Dunno about that. I see Fitch wearing Penn out and grinding him down. Fitch is stronger than you think.

Prediction: Penn  |  Submission  |  Round 2

We all know Fitch is a strong welterweight, I mean look at his size? did you see the size of him against GSP he looked big. But size doesn't matter when it comes to BJ Penns level of Jiu Jitsu. I see Penn taking the fight were ever he wants, he gets taken down? BJJ comes into play and he can keep the fight standing which like I've said before, Fitch would be in A LOT of trouble.

Prediction: Fitch  |  Decision

I think Fitch has to worry more about the hands of BJ Penn than the submissions. Fitch has great submission defense and the trick will be getting BJ down and keeping him there and not getting out boxed.

I can see fitch winning a grinding UD but theres no way he does as well as gsp did in the second fight with bj.
Bj will get some sweeps and some deep sub attempts tho.

i am a big penn fan but fitch is probably the secound best person(GSP being the best) at controling some one the whole fight. i think Bj is going to be in allot of trouble if fitch can take him down , BJ's bjj is top notch but hav you really seen him play off his back well in a while . I still think if Bj can keep it on the feet he will outstrike fitch and hopefully knock him down take his back and go for that rear naked. Tough fight for BJ and a tough fight for fitch

I'd like to see BJ win just to ground Fitch a little bit and shut him up, but i definately don't think he will ever deserve another shot at GSP

Some good thoughts here, it's an interesting fight because the outcome is dependent on Penn's strategy. We all Fitch is going to look to take it to the ground but BJ can go either way, although as he's shown over the last few years he's favouring striking.

I think I'm gonna go with Fitch to win by decision after he takes BJ down and grinds out the win over a long fight.

When one of the most inconsistent fighters in MMA takes on one of the most consistent, it seems like a much easier fight to pick than it really is. I like Fitch to win, but wouldn't be surprised to see BJ take it, because he does have the ability to beat anyone at any time.

I believe BJ will end this fight with a sub or gnp. Fitch will probably get dropped in the late 1st or 2nd rd and BJ will finish with some mean ass gnp.
