UFC80 should have a couple good fights u got one of my favorites joe stevenson vs. bj penn for the interim title and gabriel gonzaga returns to the octagon and fabricio werdum should be an okay card

[brave05]

Yeah should be a couple good fights.  Stevenson vs. BJ is for the LW title. I think BJ takes out Stevenson, but should be a good fight.  Gonzaga and Werdrum are both top 10.  Werdrum was Gonzaga's first loss, early in his career.  I think their BJJ negate each other and Gonzaga wins with the better stand up.  Winner will either face the winner of Sylvia/Nog or face Cheick Kongo possibly.

Cheik Kongo doesn't quite deserve a title shot yet, but definitely deserves to have a chance to fight in a contenders match to earn that fight.

BJ Penn is a punk. His career is done and Stevenson is going to solidify that FACT!

[wrestler48]

ya i hope so i don't think bj is a punk but i think he isn't a world champion type caliber anymore

[brave05]

BJ Penn loses a very close fight with the top WW in the world and loses a great match to Hughes.  Possibly the two greatest WWs in the world EVER and hes done for?  The guy still has talent, and i think at 155 he is the best fighter out there.  Sherk would give him trouble with his strength and wrestling, but i think BJ takes Stevenson easily.  Not world championship caliber, yet hes fighting in a World Championship fight at a weight he hasnt' been beaten at.

i don't see penn having a hard time with sherk at all, penn busted up both guys that dominated sherk, GSP may got the win but who had to spend the night in the hospital
people that discredit penn are probably new fans that hasen't seen most of his fights
but joe shouldn't be overlooked he is dangerous where ever the fight will go
that being said i got penn by whatever he wants

[Stan Rothenstein]

i don't see penn having a hard time with sherk at all, penn busted up both guys that dominated sherk,

So if Liddell beat Silva, and Silva beat Rampage, then that means that obviously Liddell would bust up Rampage, right? 

[TMBRAVE]

right
the only reason silva beat up rampage i think is besuase there are no steroid testing
in PRIDE and crooked refs standing up the fight when rampage was raining down knees
if they fought in the ufc rampage would smash him
and Penn is a better fighter then both of this two so this is bad to compare

[wrestler48]

i'm not new to the sport i've seen some of his older fights like when he fought jens the 1st time, and caol uno.................penn is good but his cardio sucks and i think he will tire out in this fight and stevenson will beat him up

It's all getting clearer now.

[TMBRAVE]

this was a great card
man PENN brought joe to school, it went the way i seen it going and i expect the same when he fights sherk
it should be a good fight but like i said before penn by what ever he wants

[RR]

Good call the unkown.

[brave05]

Pretty good card, lots of SICK KO's.  I was definately off on the Gonzaga/Werdrum fight.  I still think Gonzaga has the talent, but his cardio sux.  He wasn't even getting hurt, he was just too tired to fight back or move to a better position.  His leg kicks in the 1st round look devastating.  On MMAjunkie.com it is reported that Werdrum was granted a title shot with that win.  He'll fight the winner of Slyvia/Nog as long as Couture doesn't throw a wrench in the situation.  Penn vs Sherk will be a GREAT fight.  I can't pick a winner yet, but i don't see either of them dominating the other.  Should be a good close fight.

[wrestler48]

ya Penn vs. Sherk will be a sick fight and will come down to in my opinion who's in better shape
