UFC 94: Penn vs St. Pierre 2

When you're UFC and you make matches every month (sometimes 2x a month) you realize there are some fight cards that are really good, and some that even out and some that aren't that good. Every month you want to make it better, but sometimes you can't.

This month is not one of those months. This month has one of the best Main Events ever.

UFC Lightweight Champion, Former UFC Welterweight Champion "The Prodigy" BJ Penn faces the 2 time Current UFC Welterweight Champion Georges "Rush" St. Pierre. Two champions fighting each other. Two of the top pound-for-pound fighters facing off for the Welterweight Championship. (FYI, Welterweight is 156-170 lbs). This is a rematch fight of a razor thin split decision win by Geroges St. Pierre. That was a back and forth match. And now a rematch for a title.

Will St. Pierre solidify his standing as the best? or will BJ Penn become the first UFC fighter to hold 2 belts, in different weight classes, at the same time in the UFC?

This is a toss up for me. I don't know who to pick. Both fighters are really REALLY good. But I think I will go with Georges St. Pierre. There is no real reason to give. I could say, "his wrestling is good" then you'd say "Penn has great sprawl (countering the takedown)" I have to go with my gut. But no matter what, it'll be a great fight.

The Co Main Event is going to be a good one too. It should determine who is the #1 contender for the Light Heavyweight (186-205) Championship, held by Rashaad Evans. The Matchup is Lyoto Machida (13-0) vs Thaigo Silva (13-0). Machida has skill and smarts. He does alot of Hit-and-Run that fustrate opponents. While it is effective, it is quite BORING. Silva likes to KO people and beat them up, going to decision only once. Obviously a powerful fighter vs a skilled fighter.
This is a hard one to choose too. My guess is Machida will fustrate Silva to decision. Unfortuneately we'll have to deal with a boring fight. In the end "someone's 0 must go."

Posting (aka smack) from Fantasy Football

Posting from my public Fantasy Football League:

I'd like to thank yahoo for a great season. but most importantly (besides myself) I'd like to thank STR fan. for trading me Philip Rivers. It was a hard time before then, with Brady going down. but thanks to STR Fan, I was gave up a so-so RB (Lynch) and a horrible QB (O'Sullivan) for Thomas Jones and Philip Rivers. This single handedly turned my season around.

Ok, one more person to thank... myself because without me, this wouldn't have happened.

I am that good.
