What the crap?
So GSP's title shot ending injury is a groin pull? Maybe its just me, but I don't get the joke.

As somebody who has suffered a groin pull I can tell you that you can do NOTHING if the injury is bad enough.....nothing at all without pain and anguish.

Penn will be ready, but it won't make much of a difference. He's toast.

Some big claims there ReadyDad  Given BJ's amazing natural talent I wouldn't underestimate him anytime.

People don't realize that if the Penn-GSP fight were a 5 rounder???????
I see lots of people trying to compare Penn and Gracie.....no comparison. #1 he dominated Hughes the last time they fought. Granted it was a long time ago but from a psych standpoint, this can be a big factor. Also, BJ is a much more well-rounded fighter...arguably one of the best ever. Hughes is far from unbeatable, in fact, i would say that Liddell is 'more' unbeatable than Hughes and I personally think babalu has a good chance tomorrow....insert crossing my fingers emoticon here.

I actually think Penn would have gone 5 hard rounds that night. Problem was that the GSP-Penn fight was going back-and forth up until the last second AND the decision was not a runaway deal.....there is a tendency to downplay Penns cardio due to his physique. there's no doubt that he has more bodyfat than the other 170 guys but he's been in more big fights than just about any welterweight in the world.
Go Babalu!
