St-Pierre VS. Penn II

Here we go, BJ Penn/Georges St-Pierre part II, champ vs champ. The hype is that this is the UFC’s biggest fight to date, and I don’t think you’ll find too many people who’ll argue. I’m obviously pulling for BJ, but this should be one hell of a battle. Both guys are a cut above everyone else in their respective divisions, but the fact is that BJ is clearly at his best as a lightweight. Ditto for GSP at welterweight, and given that Penn is the one moving up a weight class for this fight, you probably have to give St-Pierre the slight edge here. It’s definitely hard to pick against GSP given the current roll that he’s on, but the same could be said about Penn. Can’t wait for this one.
