BJ Penn is the most overrated fighter on Sherdog hands down with the most delusional fan base
Hope he comes back for 1 more fight
His fan base tears down Khabib, Edgar, GSP, Aldo, and Conor
Penn fans call me a hater but to be a Penn hugger means you by default hate on other fighters who challenege or can challenge Penn's alleged "goat" status
BJ had a size advantage on Sherk though..... and a size advantage against Edgar but Edgar owned him 2x and beat him 3x
Sig worthy quote. Also it just proves how much size matters. BJ was probably 180lbs and fat in that street fight and a 240lb, 6 foot something fat guy (with a belly) who is untrained manage to KO BJ the supposed GOAT, BJ fell and hit his head against the pavement... as I recall by an untrained fat man
That untrained guy is not KOing a HW, LHW or a proper MW
He was a good fighter for hanging in but he still lost. Every bigger man except Hughes he faced he lost to...
Bj is the only fighter who gets credit for getting his azzz beat and losing fights it is truly bizzare. Not even like GSP was that much bigger than Penn in terms of height or weight (Penn is more fat at WW due to his own choice to not weight lift) and GSP was a lean and muscular shredded 185lbs)
I cant think of another fighter who gets credit for losing and being finished. Fedor got hate for losing to bigger men, Conor did as well. Yet BJ gets praised...
He also lost to a lot of smaller men
Like
Edgar 3x (whooped 2x)
Jens Pulver
Dennis siver
Ryan hall
Machida was LHW weight back then. But that was a fat Machida
No MW today is 225lbs in the cage. Even Machida in UFC at LHW didnt weight that. Machida would weigh 205lbs or maybe 208lbs.
No he isnt BW size. Not at all
No he isnt BW size. Not at all
Penn choose not to lift weights thst is his own poor mistake. He weighed 191lbs before against Machida so the idea that he was never a WW is also false.
He easily achieved Welterweight level weights
He also lost to plenty of men smaller than himself in height and weight thereby being a mark against him "beating bigger men"
You guys talk of him like he is Fedor. He legit never beat anyone heavier than himself except Matt Hughes who was also BJ same height or a tad shorter. Also Hughes had more muscle mass because Hughes believed in lifting weights
It is Penns error to go up in weight by eating more food and not training thereby getting fatter.
What was Penns weight vs Hughes in all their 3 fights?
What do you mean his size? How much weight did GSP and Hughes have on him? It wasent as much as we thought. And Penn had no issue beibg 191lbs
It is his fault he got fat
Penn also lost to men smaller than him.... He gets praised for fighting bigger guys but he lost to all them except Hughes (but he is taller than Hughes by a little)
It just is mind boggling..no other fighter gets praised for losing and getting their azzz beat
Tell us more... lol.
