UFC 112 FRANKIE EDGAR VS BJ PENN

[@parasstone8414]

Bj penn fought with lightheavyweights and frankie who is naturally featherweight is fighting welterweight is freaking awesome. Its like khabib fighting romero or tyron woodley fighting rampage jackson.

[@shavingcreamguy9554]

Frankie is fighting at bantamweight now that’s crazy

[@faysanamin980]

@@shavingcreamguy9554 and pedro munoz looked like the bigger guy at bantamweight

[@Thor-Orion]

Not rampage, Usman and Edwards or possibly Whittaker and Adesanya. Or from these guys’ era Matt Hughes, GSP, Silva and Rockhold.

Edgar was so good, hes just fighting in the wrong generation. If he was born 10 years earlier, he would’ve been champion a lot longer

[@jusbring610]

He wouldn’t have gotten paid as much LOL

[@seanmatthewking]

And if he was born later he’d be getting destroyed by Khabib

[@RENEIND]

@@seanmatthewking That would've been great to watch, prime Khabib vs a prime Penn or prime Edgar

[@AQGOAT24]

@@seanmatthewking nah if he was born later, he'd have fought at 145 and 135 earlier on. There was no 145 and 135 in the UFC during this time.

[@AQGOAT24]

@@RENEIND Khabib would destroy both of them. Edgar in the modern era is better suited for the smaller weight classes. BJ would probably get beat by Gathje or Dustin because he clearly would have struggled against calf kicks based on his style.

[@erictorres2283]

Man I wanted to see the fight go to the ground. It would've been interesting to see bj penn submit a ground a pound guy like frankie edgar

[@gaming222-s4g]

Bj looked defeated even before scorecards were read

[@cmiller2169]

Yeah cuz he's a finisher and was disappointed in himself, not that he felt he lost the fight but that he let the guy run around like that for 25 minutes

I watched this fight twice and I didn't see Frankie winning. I saw BJ winning the first 3 Rds and Frankie with 4 and 5 with because of the take downs but it really didn't do damage. Frankie is the Challenger in this fight and he didn't decisively beat BJ Penn to win the belt.

[@clipsrus606]

I agree.. Imagine if BJ won this fight, like he should had.. Plus GSP 1, which he clearly won.. Adds that much more to his incredible career!! The Original BMF CHAMP!!

[@515051506969]

Definitely agree

[@bigrandomun9267]

Yeah that’s fair. I think maybe the judges expected more from BJ and so when he wasn’t landing as much and wasn’t hurting Edgar as much as he usually is, they might have wrongly had the opinion in their head of ‘if Frankie lands something and BJ doesn’t, that’s a point in itself’. At least the 2nd fight wasn’t as clouded as this fight.

[@TamBinkle]

Yea he got robbed

[@camerondavis4813]

Penn win 4 of 5 rounds mybe all of them , I was seriously seriously surprised Edgar won and not even by split decision smh🤯 crazy they really need better judges

[@tripleh98marco]

For sure, the first was basically a draw and he certantly took the 3 and the 4, he hasn’t certantly lost and 50-45 is a shame

Agreed. After a careful watch , it seems impossible to give it to Edgar. 1,2.3 Penn and 4.5 Edgar.

That's just a plain ole decision bro. In order to be split, you'd need someone to see it the other way.

[@666metalex666]

3 - 2 for Bj Penn

[@jessiejoy1703]

I actually don’t think Frankie should’ve won. Like he did outpace penn. and he did out strike him. But most strikes were just touches. Sure he took him down twice. But penn stood right up. This isn’t wrestling. Takedowns aren’t everything. Neither man really stood out in this fight. Except that Edgar seemingly had more gas in the tank at the end. IMO the only way to dethrone a champ is to be the clearly dominant competition, as the champ has already proved their worth to be champ and the contender has not. As I said neither man stood out here. Neither were hurt. Neither controlled the octagon. Neither were the aggressors for a significant amount of time. And both still had fight to give at the end. It just wasn’t enough for me. And I hate BJ penn. If this were a regular bout, or two ppl competing for a vacant belt I’d definitely give it to Edgar, but I don’t think he did enough to dethrone another. A good example of not much happening (like this fight) but one of the competitors being clearly dominant is the recent masvidal vs Usman fight. But yeah oh well

[@jessiejoy1703]

Andre The Giant I get that BJ didn’t do well. But neither did Edgar. I don’t think anyone in that particular fight was champion material. But BJ had proved before hand that he is champ material ergo he probably should’ve kept it. But oh well. No biggie

Without taking the octagon's centre, Edgar has almost ruled the whole fight. Always changes the way he moves, then hits, and moves again and again. It still makes me feel frustrated for BJ Penn.
