Wow...the first ever card with all lightweights (minus the Thales Leites fight). Awesome. Not too long ago, the UFC 155 division never existed!
I am SOOOO looking forward to this finale. I want a gold team sweep. Come on Jens!

I'm a fan of both guys, but will definitely be rooting for Penn. I'm just more a Penn fan. I like how he'll fight anybody at any weight class. Might not always be the best idea, but he's a determined fighter. It should be a war!
You should be ashamed....you are even a fellow Hawaiian!!!!
I'm not even Hawaiian...I just live here. Basically my family comes from two totally different parts of the world, and we just settled down here in Hawaii. It's just a melting pot of culture.
Anyway, back on topic...
Yeah, I like BJ, the guys got skill, but I basically like his opponents more than him. Like, I invited a whole bunch of friends over for the UFC 63 ppv, and I was the only one rooting for Hughes. They were laughing at me during the second round, saying "Dude, Hughes is finished!" Round ends, BJ is all gassed (or has a separated rib or whatever), I am so relieved. Then after Matt wins, everybody throws chips at me.

I am actually looking forward to this more than UFC72. I think this is going to be a banner night for the blue team. I really can't wait to see Penn put a hurtin on Jens.
Jens is going to make all you Penn fans eat your words. :D
I think both these guys are motivated enough to be in good shape for this fight. Although I usually hope for some ground work, this time around I'm hoping they stay on their feet for Jen's sake.
Have any of you heard what Jens said about this fight? He said that as long as he gets to knock out a couple teeth he'd be happy to drop down and tap right there.
Won't be too much of a banner night for the Blue team regardless. Must I remind you that both the finalists are Gold team members. Oh yeah, and Jens won the $10,000 too. :heh:

It is Nate Diaz that is fighting not Nick Diaz. That should make for an interesting fight. These two guys have been ready to throw down at the drop of a hat since the start of the show. Maybe they can use some of that pent up aggresion to their advantage on Saturday night. I think BJ is going to win this fight pretty handily, I like Jens but if he is already talking about losing then he's toast. When BJ is done choking him out he should say,"Aloha and mahalo".

Talking about losing? Well, you have a point, but to me it seems that Jens' comments simply means he wants to put a hurtin' BJ win or lose.

I did'nt read or hear his quote directly so I may have read more into it than was there.
