BJ Penn gets chummy with Fedor Emelianenko and Gegard Mousasi while training for UFC 101 (Video)

badass video fedor and bj two of the top p4p fighters together. imagine the bj we would see if he trained with fedor !!!

by the way, I put FU mikey joking around, some how it got deleted, yet some douche comes on every day threatening john at 101!

maybe its jesse

you think Jared. Thanks for the news captain obvious!

I think I missed something regarding BJ…

Did he move his camp to Cali? I missed the info that he is not in Hilo getting ready for Kenny.

Hmm… makes me wonder.

Somebody confirm?

BJ in Cali

stfu kevin its sarcasm

I know, so was mine! BJ has been in cali a while

Just read an article with BJ where he says he thinks he was overtrained for the second GSP fight. Seriously.

Wow. How badly would he have been raped if onl;y trained like normal. And by normal I mean not at all.

God he bugs, he fok N’ BUGS me!

just went to betus, a BJ/silva parlay for the max 500 pays 422, pretty good odds if you ask me!

Those odds are pretty decent. Maybe chuck Thales in too.

For 500 that would pay about 740ish. I reckon it’s tempting; not that I have that kind of money to bet. I might stick 50 on it.

Just checked it. 500 pays 686 on BetUS.

I’m not sold on BJ until I see him at the weigh ins. Kenny is coming focused, no doubts about it. I hope all the late money comes in on BJ because Kenny at +200 I can not pass up.

RobH, Leites is the lock of the night on the card, I got him parlayed already. Too bad 2 of the fights on that parlay were on the Affliction card, so now that parlay is simply Thales and Cyborg.

Close to even money on Anderson and BJ is pretty darn good odds though if you ask me, but adding Thales to it makes it a bettors bet – if you are sold on BJ. I have been sold for years and years, however that GSP loss was VERY demoralizing to BJ Penn.

I like sakara in that one though! i think I’m gonna do 500 on bj strt
500 on silva strt and the parlay. It’s very risky, but I’m comfortable, and if silva looses, bet another 500 (under 2nd screen name) on bj!

exactly Mike, the GSP fight makes BJ the lock of the night!

VM: I guarentee that BJ will be in the best shape of his life and he is going to impressively FINISH Kenny Florian. THere isnt a single doubt in my mind!

john i thank you a lot for saying bj will win, makes me not feel like a dumbass saying it myself

I agree with VM… I need to see BJ at the weigh ins
and see where his head / fitness is at. GSP was a demoralizing loss.

Don’t sleep on K-Flo. I know that if BJ gets in his face he will still be there the whole fight.
If BJ faces adversity than we will have to see him dig deeper then he did against Matt Hughes (the last time) and GSP recently. Sometimes on his back his expression looks like he’s already lost. Kenny will throw bows of his back.

JOhn G – do you have any more info on Bahna moving to ATT? Love the camp and Cane -love to know more.

John the Bahna news was announced last week!

Got a link to anything Alpha?

Yup,it was announced by ATT…

http://www.americantopteam.com/news_detail.php?NewsArticleID=559

I thought John went on and on about how Banha and T.Silva hated each other. If thats correct, why would ATT accept Banha? Doesn’t make sense to me.

Thanks Alpha!

Thats a deep pool of talent at ATT. I always knew, but now I know. (go through the fighters listing)

Too bad. I don’t care about the match up for T.Silva vs Cane, but I am sorry this hurts my chances of Gouveia
and Bahna throwing down.

I’d like to see Lashley and the Snowman grapple.

Synyster,

They did hate each other but have chose to squash the beef becuase they would rather train at ATT then go to a different camp. They said that still don’t like each other but are civil, and that they are in different spots in teh LHW division so they dont see themselves fighting each other anytime soon. BUT if they do get matched up Banha and Silva said it will be a good fight and they are more then willing to throw down.

NICE ehoglund. I beg to differ in the sense that they are in different spots in the LHW division. Silva being around 8 or so, and Cane being around 11 or 12. But very good to hear that they wont mind beating each other up. AKA should take notice. T.Silva is one of my favorite young guys, and although the Machida fight kind of exposed him as non-elite just yet, I love his attitude and his badass-ness.

Just laughed again hahaha your too funny

roflmao…freddy, i laughed at how unfunny you are…lol

No sweat off my balls if they land Fedor…I’m just saying this “rumour” is stupid and M-1 has already shot it down.

NEWS***Dana will announce the signing of Fedor on Friday at the press conference.

brock vs. Fedor is being discussed for UFC 103 in Dallas on September 19th!

i hope so john, september is not that far away how cool will that be. the new ufc champ fedor.

about 2 hours to late johnny, we’ve been talking about that since 6 am my time!

lOVE IT ROY!

MOusasi has signed a 3 fight deal with strikeforce.

Then Ben Rothwell vs. Chase Gormley Moved to the UFC 104

I’m excited about gegard and babalu!

If I can watch my boy Brock shitstomp Fedor live and in person at the AAC in Dallas I’ll scrounge up the cash to go!

I don’t see how Fedor beats Brock – I don’t think technique will be enough to beat Brock’s strength and power. I hope Fedor fight’s another top HW first so he can get used to the cage and the UFC in general. But they’re throwing him into the lions right off the bat.

ATT, best camp in the world? I’d check that again. How many champs are from there?

You guys keep talking like Brock’s size and power will be too much for Fedor to overcome. Have you guys forgotten that Fedor has fought Zuluzinho? LOLOLOL

The way everyone talks on this site, you’d think Brock would be the favorite in this fight rather than a 2-1 dog. I for one hope that everyone puts their money where thier mouths are and the fight odds are close to even come the night of the fight because Fedor hasn’t been even money since EVER!!!!! Fedor would make Brock look silly. If Randy could hold his own against Brock there are no doubts that Fedor will bring all the WWF fans back to reality.

People must have forgotten exactly WHO Fedor is and WHAT he has accomplished all because Brock chose to drink a Coor’s Light and get on top of his wife.

TRUST ME!

mtb – wec champ #1 featherweight
jorge santiago – mw champ for sengoku
antonio silva – elite xc champ, sengoku champ :S ionno

point is there is champs from that camp just none in the ufc. i would personally go with the majority and say greg jackson has the best camp. he has gsp holding the ww strap, carwin going to hold the hw strap, marquardt going to hold the mw strap, rashad former champ, plus cerrone, jardine, and others.

MIKE BROWN!!! hahahahaha i hate the guy, like i hate brock lesnar god i hope fedor pulls a mob move and just kills that prick, i feel like a troll just saying that but my hate for brock is more and more everytime i hear him talk, how the f*ck could a guy with more mma fights than his IQ graduate college is beyond me,

and introvert of course they are denying it it’s a secret…

All this breaking news sounds great but I remain cautiously optimistic.

VM – Just saw the Zuluzinho fight and that fat ass looked too fat to even attempt a takedown or too slow to wrap up Fedor. Brock not only has super-strength but he’s also very athletic. I think this will be Fedor’s toughest fight ever Brock is new breed.

I was 99% kidding about Zuluzinho, hence the LOLOLOLOL…

That would give Mousasi the chance to win the Hulk Touney, dominate Strikeforce’s sad LHW division for a while, and then join the UFC.

All I can find on Fedor signing is the same apparently bunk LA Times report that has been picked up by numerous websites. Nothing new that I could dig up, but then I’m not privy to Johnny’s much-heralded ‘sources’, LOL.

NO sources this time. I read the same stuff that you do

So what are you basing it on, John? Stop torturing us!

http://fiveouncesofpain.com/2009/07/29/gegard-mousasi-i-want-to-be-part-of-the-showtime-boxing-series/

How did you win? He can’t be a lazy champ?

Yeah cause Sherk is an all-time great isn’t he. Freakin Frankie Edgar just handled him for three rounds. C’mon dude, He gasses out in most of his fights becuse he never gets in good shape.

You must be high curly. Its funny how Mania never mentioned The Diaz bros training with BJ and you guys make it sound like BJ went out and got chummy with Fedor. This is BJ’s camp here and Fedor came to hang out. So did Belfort, Jake Sheilds, Eves Edwards and a whole lot of great MMA figthers.

i don’t see how bj has cardio issues? he has gassed how many times at 155? NONE you dipshits he lost to a man in gsp who hasn’t even really lost a single round in what 2 years almost 3? jesus christ get off the bj sucks bandwagon the man is gonna kill kenny florian kenny is overrated, lauzon got him down and was on top of him for awhile think bj can’t do the same but better?

Dustin Haze is another dude, who is only 23, and is pulling off crazy submissions too. Nick and Nate are still really young as well.

But I’ve been saying for a looong time now, Mousasi will PWN this year. Its been a bit of a late start, but he will rack up a the Strikeforce LHW belt, and then the openweight SuperFreak Championship too. I don’t think we’ll see him in the UFC for a good while, seeing as to he has to lose those belts before signing over to the UFC. I just hope Dana, who I always support, doesn’t start trashing my favorite fighter for not being in the UFC.

He also just signed a 3 fight deal with Strikeforce and said he also wants to box on Showtime. So yes, it will be a while before he comes to the UFC.

lol.

John Connor is a human, and he beat a whole race of self-aware cyborgs.

If he’s a martian…what are you?A Uranus guy?

yes rich you are stupid as well

Please man, your hurtin my feelings…

Agreed rich, it is stupid and if you agree then you are also stupid……..sad but true.

Hey numbnuts I’m not saying I totally agree I’m just saying Fedor isn’t everything people here make him out to be. I do think he is somewhat overrated.

And for that matter so is BJ. His record isn’t that great. Yes he’s good at lightweight but hasn’t proved to be great yet. Beating Joe daddy and Sean SHerk isn’t really that impressive.

i like mousasi and think he is a great up and comer buuuut haha he has fought alot of unkowns (not only) But he does seem to have a great future only time will tell. whats the biggest name or best fighter he has beat? mark hunt? nah i just cant think right now. fedor is great and i hope he trains for a cage like mad if indeed he makes it into the ufc cause his ground in pund against the cage is just scary sounding. and bj is great and i expect him to win but this is mma after all. and who did kenflo beat? joe dady and rodger hureta ohhhh big deals there. oh and k flow lost to sherk.

10% i am starting to feel good about myself.

Thanks for holding up my good name mac!! :D

LOL,you don’t deserve to keep your name anyway,weak a$$ Iguana.You are a disgrace to everyone who believe that a dragon MUST be powerful.Go crawl back in your vivarium little lizard.And change your name for at least Dragon slayer it would be less provoking.

Retarded really!?!?!?!? First of all they are two bald, chubby guys. Second who in the H has Fedor fought that could possibly prepare him to fight someone like Randy or Brock? Hong Man Choi? Oh I know it was Tim Sylvia, no not Sylvia it was Andre I have no chin Arlovski or Aoki. I don’t know man that sounds like some old ufc has-beens or have nots.

and what will you say when fedor is in the ufc beat all of those guys?

I tell ya what. If he beats those guys I will man-up and admit I’m wrong. But in this case I don’t see it.

I’ll be right behind you wes if fedor comes in and beats brock and/or randy I WILL BE ON HERE SAYING THAT HE IS INDEED THE TOP HW FIGHTER, but you and i both know neither one of us will have to say that, mir would beat fedor, he stands no chance against randy and for sure won’t be able to hang with brock!! so the way i see it is if and when fedor comes to the ufc we will be the ones on here saying I TOLD YOU SO FEDOR IS A LOSER!!! then what are all the fedor lovers gonna say , i mean come on how are you guys going to justify the great fedor getting owned by a nam who only has 5 mma fights??? don’t even try to say it’s the cage casue guess what a fight is a fight whether it be a ring or the cage, and fedor has a ton of fight experience so you better come up with something new!!

fedor has great gnp so in a cage i expect it to be beter than in a ring so he can hold them against it. randy will get judo tossed if he clinches with fedor. an brock uhg i want fedor to win but god damn brock is so much bigger than fedor so it’s hard to say. Maybe an ancle lock if fedor can grab it. or if he can land a big punch and daze brock. but i’m not extreem to one side or the other on who will win like you. calling ppeople names and being so overy agresive.

Like I said, 3 ufc has-beens. Are they fighting in the UFC anymore? Where they all-time greats??? They were title holders, not champions. Like Buster Douglas. Anyone can have a couple good fights. It dosen’t make you great. And neither Sylvia or Arlovski beat anyone, but each other.

Like You said? I think I said it!

wes its really irrevelant who fedor has fought, allmost evry ufc fighter will tell you, very knowledgeable fighters, who recognize greatness, and much more qualified than you are that fedor is the best. what makes him so good is he is quick as a LW, hits wit a ton of power and his punches are dead on. HE DOESNT HAVE THE BEST TECHNICALL boxing but thats ok, he is too fast for any HW he fights, and if they are the same size as him too powerfull. HE CAN TRANSITION the fight to wherever he wants, from standup to the ground wherever he feels he has the advantage, his transition game is the best in the world, once on the ground his gnp is brutal and being one of the 2 best sombo practicioners in the world he will submitt you. in the meantime he cant be submitted. What is remarkable about him,is even though he looks pudgy , he is cat quick, and hits like a freight train with accuracy, along with transition, and the ground game, its easy to see why he is so good. You just wouldnt recognize greatness if it was right in front of you. I urge you to study some of his fights, then tell me what HW moves around like that, and can do what he does in the ring

He is certainly many of the things that you have said. HOWEVER, he is not used to fighting the new breed of big heavywiegts like Carwin or Lesnar. I think both of these guys would blast him. They both have the skill, size, stregth and athletic prowess that he has never faced before. I would be impressed beyond belief if he beats Lesnar.I don’t see it happening.

Sorry Wes, I meant to say Like “he” said. But I was thinking the same thing.

i hate to admit it but wes and others make a good point. these big strong atheltic guys will be a great challenge for fedor.alot has changed with the heavy weights in the last couple years and as great as fedor is there is a point where size comes into play. crocop was great and a great win for fedor but crocop is no where near as big as some of these kids in the ufc. arlovski was at what 145? but 165 is just a whole never esspecially when a guy can punch corectly. timy is big but and a big win for fedor but who out there thinks can handle carwin ore velasquez or hell even congo or gonzga? either way i cant wait to see if fedor can live up to MY expectations haha.

P4P roy, thats my take! It’s really tough for some to put a HW on their P4P list! Not me, but some!

its not like i wouldn’t mind seeing it, but he is putting it out there like fedor needs to do it.

I’ve mentioned it in the past too! while dominant at HW, he’s truly a LHW!

Fedor will lose to Lesnar, then be forced to cut weight to 205 and lose to the eventual champ there, Ando! I just watched every fight i could of Fedors, the BIG guys had no skills or cardio and the equals took him to decisions, some rocked him, Sobral to a decision??? Brock will make history, Ando will make sure you know that its not about being a giant like Brock to get a W on this guy.

Adam, thank you. I couldn’t agree with you more I’m thinking the same freakin thing.

Exactly, thank you!

Wobbled, not knocked out, no-one in 30 fights has knocked him out – you can’t say he doesn’t take a punch when no-one has stopped him. Anyone would be wobbled by big shots to the temple, it’s how you deal with it that matters – Bob Sapp got his orbital broken by Cro Cop and cried like a baby, Heath Herring got his broken by Brock then went 3 rounds with him.

but.. if you take a heavy hitter who punches harder than say cro cop or fujita the result may not be wobbled but ko’d

for sure one thing you can never question in fedors skillset

I meant to type “MMA math doesn’t work.” Sorry for the typo.

Oh, and nice use of the word “warrior” when describing a man who gets paid to fight in the 21st century. Words get thrown around way too liberally.

Warrior “a person who shows or has shown great vigor, courage, or aggressiveness, as in politics or athletics.”

 Beaver I think warrior represents Brock well 21st century or not? Spartan, gladiator, Barbarian….are the words you see getting thrown around for other century soldiers L E E.

Point taken, but Brock still isn’t a “warrior” in the least. Douchebag? Probably. Overrated fighter? Most definitely. But I guess it’s all preference really.

Douchebag implies a variety of negative qualities, specifically arrogance and engaging in obnoxious and/or irritating actions without malicious intent. It is generally used for males only.

?? yeah you could be right too L E E brock is a “Douchebag Warior” I don’t know about overrated when you have a championship belt in the clearly #1 organization as far as being better than Fedor your right it’s opinion only and Fedor is starting to lose support on the opinion who is the #1 HW?
