raghead you should know his opinion is a little biased since he is a Faber nuthugger. I mean there is nothing wrong with that and everyone's personal rankings will be slightly biased to say the least. Well for me, I can't see anyone but Fedor as P4P the best fighter no wait the best person ever. I'd give BJ a distant second (this is due to my friend's brainwashing of me).
It bothers me when people put BJ over GSP. Penn is my favorite fighter, and I'm willing to bet he's going to beat GSP when they fight, but he simply hasn't proved himself as much as GSP. If he didn't fuck up so much in the past by not training/breaking his own rib/fighting at heavyweight, he'd probably have a perfect record right now. While I think he's going to beat GSP, he simply doesn't belong in that division and I think Alves is going to take the belt from him right after he gets it. If only Penn could have learned from Anderson Silva: Smash everyone in you division and occasionally move up a weight class and smash people bigger than you.Originally Posted by cdc
But yeah, I believe BJ Penn is the most talented and naturally gifted fighter in the world, his ego just ruins it for him.
I think that BJ would have lost to Jens no matter what. Just because it was so early in his career and Jens had so much more experience. (But that's just me) I tend to disregard GSP due to his semi-recent loss to Matt Serra. Though watching his Jon Fitch fight made up for it a tiny bit. I also tend to disregard Anderson Silva after watching his fight vs. Daiju Takase. I know that P4P has nothing to do with record, but in my mind I have trouble separating the two.
