I was really excited until I found out the original plan was penn vs Bendo & Edgar vs Faber.
Faber could beat Edgar IMO would be an epic fight
 
7, excited to see Edgar steamroll BJ but Im not a big fan of seeing mismatches
 
For the fight itself, around 7 or 8


for BJ Penn making his comeback in a divison that is NOT Welterweight, 10.
 
about 3 cause it's 145. 155 would be a 1. and after tuf you know it's gonna end up a title eliminator

on second thought 155 would be 2. 170 would be 1.
id be more excited if it was 145 against some one new. he'll even guida would be better imo

I don't have the highest of hopes but i'm pretty excited as of today. It may wear off a bit later.

Eh don't really care about Bendo at all.

Edgar/Faber is a great fight though i agree.
 
I would say a 5. Could go to 0 or 10 depending on how BJ looks at the weigh in.
 
Any rational fan should be excited. I wanted a 145 pound BJ Penn for YEARS!

I have Penn beating Edgar
 
Why isnt zero an option, I can tell you exactly how it will go. Frankie will hop around endlessly with a one two jab straight combo while constantly jumping back. Penn will just stand there with zero head movement throwing the occasional punch in hopes of catching Frankie and knocking him out. Mix in a few frankie take down attempts, and there you have it. Hopefully its just a 3 round affair, so we dont have to watch 5 rounds of this nonsense. FE by UD.

Penn is of no interest to me. He always trains easy in hawaii. Never grew as a fighter.
 
3/10 for me. Penn is pretty much done for. It wouldn't be much of a contest.

I voted 3 as well, and for pretty much the same reason. As a BJ Penn fan I'm just not expecting much at this point. Older fighters need someone they can trust to tell them when it's time to hang them up.

I'd be ecstatic if he makes a good showing.
