It was a fight where if Hall won he would get a name on his record, and a fight where BJ would most likely avoid getting brutally stopped. On paper it was winnable for BJ, but I think Hall would have simply been too dynamic for Penn on the feet as well.I still think the UFC was convinced Penn could avoid the grappling with Hall due to his own elite grappling talents (even an out of shape Penn is gonna have innate knowledge of holds and ground stuff) and then just outbox him for a "send off win" without risking BJ getting brutally KOed. Same with Maynard.
