BJ Penn vs Matt Hughes 3 possible for UFC 123 on Nov. 20

Former welterweight champions BJ Penn and Matt Hughes will collide for the third and likely final time in a 170-pound bout at UFC 123, which is scheduled for The Palace of Auburn Hills in Auburn Hills, Mich., on Nov. 20.
Ariel Helwani today confirmed the rampant speculation after Hughes hinted on his official website that he would return to action when the promotion hits "Motor City" later this year.
Penn and Hughes first met way back in 2004, with a 25-year-old "Prodigy" living up to his nickname and upsetting the dominant champion via submission (rear naked choke) in the UFC 46: "Super Natural" main event. Penn would relinquish the title shortly thereafter because of a contractual dispute with the promotion.
The Hawaiian returned two years later, losing a number one contender match to the upstart Georges St. Pierre via controversial split decision. But when "Rush" injured himself training for Hughes, who regained his title by defeating the Canadian at UFC 50, Penn was called in on short notice to rematch Hughes.
Hughes, barely, survived being mauled by Penn in the first two rounds in their championship tilt at UFC 63 in 2006. He turned the tables, however, on a poorly conditioned Penn, who complained after the bout that he sustained a rib injury, to score a convincing third round technical knockout (strikes) victory.
Now four years later, it's time to put an end end to one of the most heated rivalries in the history of the promotion with an epic trilogy match.
Penn, who has competed at lightweight (155 pounds) since the loss to Hughes -- sans a welterweight super fight between champions against St. Pierre in 2009 -- has lost back-to-back fights against division champion Frankie Edgar. Hughes, meanwhile, has resurrected his Hall of Fame career with three straight wins over talented veterans such as Matt Serra, Renzo Gracie and Ricardo Almeida.
Will current trends continue when the two sworn enemies collide in little more than two months or does Penn have what it takes to topple his 36-year-old counterpart?
UFC 123 is expected to be headlined by a light heavyweight match up of top contenders Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida and Quinton "Rampage" Jackson. The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) alums, Joe Lauzon and George Sotiropoulos, are also expected to throw down in an important 155-pound showdown.

If its a fight with BJ this card will have a perfect Co Main. I would be interested in seeing if Matt still has it left in him since a win here would put him in line for a contender fight. and if BJ has it in him to get back on track.

lol a guy with 3 wins in a row fighting a guy with 2 losses in a row?
You guys are breaking FreeNow rule #17a many times over. Just stop it, it is not happening!
BJ Penn is the biggest waste of talent in MMA history. Like usual, my pick was wrong and I blame a certain pudgy Hawaiin for my own short comings when it comes to talent selection. As it stands BZ – 3 Freenow82 – 1.
think outside the box
the guy with the winning streak hasnt really faced the kind of competition that would warrent a title fight. the guy with losses lost in back to back titel fights and to the same fighter. If this match is going to happen this is perfect timing.

forget win/lose streaks
these guys are tied up at 1-1 and have unfinished business. They both ruled their division while champ. Their arent in there haydays anymore but are still VERY competitive. Lets get in the rubber match before they get even further into their fighter wonder years, or they retire.

UFC matchmaking = $$
two guys that have lost the “it” factor gets matched up in one last attempt by Zuffa to promote one of these guys (matt hughes) over the edge into title contention once again. Could also be that BJ has officially joined the “money league” where classic UFC fighters gets matched up against names that aren’t gonna get them title fights but sell and make money.

I agree with you.
I kind of want to see this rematch. The only thing that makes me wonder is if BJ will have any cardio at 170. If BJ is properly prepared he wins this fight any day…any way.
i just Hope matt doesnt try n stand the whole time with his new found standing TKO ability

It's a dumb rule anyway.
You can’t have such black and white rules in life Free. You or Zuffa and the fans would miss out on a lot of good things in life or good match ups.
Anderson Silva is by far the number one P4P king!!! Even when he is losing a fight he still comes back and finishes for the win! GSP dominates the whole fight and still can't finish! LOL
rules are meant to be broken. statistically I'd say the rule applies in about 95% of the fights in the UFC

But it’s not so black-and-white. There are many other variables such as which opponents they’ve both faced, the level of hype and fame they have — how big a name they are — if there’s a history between them, if they are a good match-up etc.
But perhaps that fits into the 5% ;)

Gus Johnson will never live that down and it should never be forgotten.
I gotta say though, even though I don’t like Rule #17a in your book, I have to admit I particularly like Rule #24F: NO FATE BUT WHAT ME MAKE as well as Rule #34: Don’t shit where you eat.
Very impressive!

its not like it was a tough fight to predict.
probably one of the only interesting fights left for BJ besides Gomi
Loyality before Reality
This has become a really big wagon, hate to see how many horses are pulling you guys.
I've got something to say; it better to burn in hell than to fade away!!!
I’m obviously outnumbered here, but despite this fight being an obvious option — don’t know how Kev thinks he “called” it first — there are plenty of good match-ups for BJ at lightweight which I would prefer to see over BJ vs Matt HUGE III.
All the up and comers would suit him nicely — Evan Dunham, George Sotiropopopulousus, Gray Maynard (down the line obviously), Gomi — even Efrain Escudero, Cole Miller (if he gets a rhythm going) and so forth.
I would love to see BJ do well at 170, but I doubt he could stop Fitch, Kos, or even Anthony Johnson from man-handling him because he just doesn’t have the frame to beat that kind of wrestling and size at a higher division. Yeah, AJ might be a stretch, but even that match-up interests me more than BJ/Hughes III.

Dragon wins by decision when was the last time Rampage was Knocked Out. Plus Lyoto will be even more elusive than ever before and fast enough to score good combos and leg kicks on Rampage. Hughes will also win a decision because he will take BJ down and control 3+ minutes of all three rounds to get the Nod. No Submissions or Knock Outs here guys. I can see the Future Remember. :)

Hughes couldnt take Penn down when he dominated the division.
Using no way as way, having no limitation as limitation.
A motivated Penn takes this fight no question.

i hate that type of statement.
motivation and mindset is as much a part of fighting as a left hook. thats like saying if rampage throws left hooks he wins the fight. make a concrete dicision not based on bullshit like motivation.
i acknowledge your statement as accurate and second it
If BJ walks in and DOESNT slap his face hes fucked

fair enough. i just think its kinda chicken shittish
ive heard that motivation thing with bj far too many times.
i acknowledge your statement as accurate and second it
Like with Fedor, some people are unable to accept BJ for what he is. The only difference is BJ is 15-7-1. He loses near 1/3 of his fights but people sit back and talk about how unbeatable he is. Sorry….. I used to talk BJ up to but I’m just not buying the hype anymore. He is the greatest American at BJJ but not in MMA.
Nothing Ever Changes When Nothing Ever Changes
BJ has all the skill in the world
everything comes easy for him, he didnt have a hard life.
People like that NEED to be motivated……believe me.

the mind is as important as the body and what you do with it. motivation is a skill, therefor he doesnt have all the skill in the world. champs are complete packages. woulda coulda shouldas when it comes to bj
Well he obviously proved he meets your definition by winning belts in two

Not only does BJ Penn quit on his stool versus guys that are bigger than him...He gets tooled by guys that are SMALLER than him. BJ should just stick to jumping out of pools, not fighting. I shoulda listened to Ulf.

i used to have a really good left hook, busted up my elbow, and now its gone

im a huge gps fan
id even go so far as to say id kiss his ass. but bj fans all seem willing to stick their whole heads up bj’s. one article listed his belt record at 5-5-1. use whatever excuse you want for those losses but compare them to the current ww and mw champs records in belt fights. bj is good,really good, but not as great as you all want to believe he is.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Anderson Silva is by far the number one P4P king!!! Even when he is losing a fight he still comes back and finishes for the win! GSP dominates the whole fight and still can't finish! LOL
Im a huge fan of Global Positioning Systems (GPS) too.....

A motivated Penn
is a BJ who lands a winning punch or gets a winning sub, an unmotivated Penn is one who doesnt land a winning punch or get a winning sub. For BJ fans, his losses have nothing to do with the skill or strategy of his opponent. They are the only fans who think that way. Truly amazing.
Because there is truth to it.
When B.J. comes in punching his own faces he wins! The last two fights he looked like he didn’t want to be there at all! Being a fan or not, it was obvious to see. I am less of a fan than I use to be because of that. It’s hard to be a fan of a fighter that doesn’t give it his all and train like he wants to be champ. I’m not a fan of GSP, but at least you know as a fan that he will give it everything he has and trains like an animal. He is a student of the game and is always trying to improve. B.J. has all the talent in the world and has gotten far with it, but it’s just not good enough anymore. He has always had things handed to him and never had to work hard at anything and it shows.

World War 3 anyone?
Another war, another match, but I am going to bank that #3 will end with Hughs on top.
I think it will go the same as the last one..
but without BJ getting the rib injury, and him continuing his embarrassing beatdown of Hughes until the ref has no choice but to stop the fight. That fight was so one sided before the injury, that I cannot see it going any other way, no matter how good Hughes has looked lately. A lot of people think BJ gassed in that fight, but anyone who has ever damaged their ribs should know differently. I bruised mine once by stupidly letting a barbell bounce of them while pressing. The pain from breathing in and out the following day, was unreal, I thought I was dying. I hope it isnt as one sided as I think it is going to be, and we get a really entertaining fight.
This sucks id much rather see them fight someone else
Both guys should be fighting top guys in their division not each other.
If you dont like drugs then dont do them.....give them to me!
I don't think bj has the heart for such an immense contest anymore....
But I think hughes definately has,sub win Hughes

BJ needs to train at Greg Jackson's
It’s as simple as that,,,,, BJ Pulls his head Lava STone structured Skull outta’ his lazy Hawaiian AsS and vist OLD man Couture to learn how to train a fatiguing aging Body…. and if u can’t beat ‘em BJ join in n’ take that HGH you say everyone that beats you is taking.
BJ train at Xtreme Couture or Greg Jacksons'?

BJ would have and ego since Maynard is training there.. at least Greg Jackson
Florian is part-time over there and BJ will have his hands full training with Guillard in the standup…. Steel Sharpens Steel though BJ’s ego might stop him there as well since GSP trains there. BJ’s needs to go somewhere they’ll kick his ass and his ego will survive… where in the hell is that?
BJ at Jackson?
Is that a real opinion or are you joking. If not you’re stupid. Do you not remember BJ of accusing Jackson and his noys of greasing GSP? No way he is welcome there

This fight doesn't really tell me much
Regardless of who wins. If bj wins, Hughes is old and has only been taking hand picked opponents of late. If Hughes wins it will confirm to all the baby jay haters that bj was done after his first scrap with Edgar. I would rather bj tried to get back in the 155 title picture.

The way he came out against Edgar? Thats the way BJ always fights..
its edgars irritating style that nulified BJ’s skills. This is how the fight will play out… Hughes will be trying to take penn down but will have no success. Penn will land some shots on the feet and take the decision. This is a 3 round fight so we wont have to worry about BJ gassing. He went into the Championship rounds his last 4 fights
Long live 'THE PRODIGY'
the bj that fought frankie was way different then the one that had fights with florian and diego
If bj fights like that against matt then he will lose. He doesnt look the same and it looked pretty obvious to me
The Red Wings will come back stronger

As much as I love BJ, I don’t think anyone should discredit Frankie’s victories. BJ could not figure out how to solve the puzzle before him and he got outworked and outclassed.

Stop trying to discuss anything with me. You suck. Bj has looked like crap. You are kidding yourself if you think Edgar is his kryptonite. Hughes is a bigger stronger wrestler than Edgar and Edgar had 0 problems taking bj down. That is NOT how bj always fights. Again, you are a jackass and the true definition of bitch fanboy. Honor your bet and get the hell off these boards.

take my advice above and you will catch no more flack.. Youve trolled here so long people here want to like you.

You guys all deserve each other. It’s funny how someone as seemingly stupid as this PENNorDIE clown — whose posts I never read anyway — always seems to have one over all you other self-righteous idiots.
"THIS IS THE GREATEST UPSET IN THE HISTORY OF MIXED MARTIAL ARTS!"
Gus Johnson will never live that down and it should never be forgotten.
You must not know the whole story, and if you do, even worse. Either way, poor form.
"It's not what you know, it's what you can prove."
Fuck form. You guys keep hackin’ on her or him, just like you do with that other idiot, and then you complain about them when you’re just perpetuating their existence here. The only reason I know of that other fool and PennorDie is because everybody keeps going on about them. I never understood it. I suppose their idiocy is all the craze these days.

Admittedly, she gets under my skin. Yes, I get a little worked up as I am a huge BJ fan and I get thrown in with this clown. This is the first time she has fessed up to the fact that she didn’t honor her bet. Now that she has, I have nothing left to say to her. So, just for you Jack, I will take your advice and ignore her going forward. Self-righteous idiot? A little strong there bud.
Not only does BJ Penn quit on his stool versus guys that are bigger than him...He gets tooled by guys that are SMALLER than him. BJ should just stick to jumping out of pools, not fighting. I shoulda listened to Ulf.
Well put, Deuce.
Yeah, you guys are darn right making me feel guilty now. Maybe I got worked up myself.

it's all good brother
I was at home, having a few drinks and I certainly got worked up. Shit happens. I try to have more of a level head with this stuff, but I fall victim to jackassery occasionally. Her and Danago kinda ruin the mania experience for me and sometimes I just can’t help myself. It is depressing that any and all BJ threads on mania are dominated by this fool. It makes it hard to be an out-of-the-closet BJ fan.

Haha! Yeah, they shame BJ with their antics. I’m also out of the closet in that regard.
On a lighter note, they’re like the radical, suicide bomber Muslims who do no favors for the Muslim faith and the other, good-natured Muslims (like Yusuf Islam/Cat Stevens) — not that I’m a Muslim or even remotely that way inclined.
They’re exactly that, they’re radicals. Haha.
Every so often a particular fighter gets the “crazies.” BJ gets them. Fedor gets them. And I think Brock gets them too (although they’re more mutated).
I’m a fan of all three fighters, but certainly not a radical.

I forgot about that fact
Danabitch did the same thing and then said someone “hacked her account”. So I suppose you are right.

If you're worried about attracting creeps how about you stop trying as hard as you possible can(and still coming up short) to look sexy in your photos? Problem solved. I guess that involved an 8th grade level of thinking though so I understand why you
hadn’t thought about it.
"It's not what you know, it's what you can prove."
I've been waiting for you, damnit. Off to check now...
"It's not what you know, it's what you can prove."
This is brutal...oh well, we'll run it back at some point. I've gotta change the pic from home, but I took off the "Duck Hunting" one in the meantime.
Admit it, you were worried for at least like 20 minutes.
The top 5 things I learned this weekend:
5) SEC "team speed" is O-VER-RA-TED
4) Orange and White will never look as good as Green and Yellow.
3) 102,000 people get awfully quiet when they choke on too much Duck.
2) The Vols would have had better luck playing checkers in their end zones than trying to stop the Ducks from getting in there.
1) I fell victim to one of the classic blunders - The most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Asia" - but only slightly less well-known is this: "Never go against a Mormon when points are on the line! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
The Vols gave up. After that pick 6 it was a wrap. Not enough depth and a crappy QB. The Ducks showed their stuff in the 2nd half for sure.

The thing about that is that Frankie didnt go for just the double.
When frankie didnt get the double he scrambled to diffrent positions throwing bj off balance
Long live 'THE PRODIGY'
So are you just going to continue ignoring the fact that you lost a bet and didn’t honor it? You are ok with your word meaning nothing?

Don’t think anyone cares? Listen little girl because I have no reason to lie to you. You are nothing if your word means nothing. You pretty boy, pretty lala, Penn or die have a word that means absolutely shit. You will not go far in life going about things that way. Better hope your skinny ass is enough for you to get by, because your inner self is seriously lacking. You address me anymore and all
I will respond with is a resounding FUCK YOU

deuce the difference between hughes and edgar taking bj down is edgar is fast and always moving,changing angles and setting up takedowns,
hughes is extremely slow, though equally powerful to his slow speed, but he doesn’t set up a takedown well at all and that is what pennordie is trying to explain in a muchless intelligent way.
i guess i speak retard well? but i see it the same way edgar is bj’s kryptonite but as is gray maynard the way he has been fighting. at 170 bj doesn’t have to worry about a guy much faster than him so he can probably be more dominant at that weight sure he wont beat gsp but he wont beat edgar either, it takes a brain to understand how they setup there takedowns and how to avoid it and bj doesn’t have that, nor do i.
my sig might be gay but you're the dumbass that read it

Hughes is a prick
And I sometimes have difficulty figuring out who I dislike more, him or bj. But I don’t think bj can win this fight at this point. And Hughes looks like he’s got a fire under him again.

Gomi is actually an excellent wrestler
Before he replaced his fists with titanium, he won with pure top control.
That, combined with Guida’s love of brawling, leads me to pick Gomi by TKO.

+ a huge reach and size advantage for Gomi.
He should outclass Guida with speed and technique.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic !
that speed and technique also translates into BIG firepower for Gomi.
I think he wins the hardest puncher award at LW.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic !
I Hoped This Would Be A Trilogy
Awesome. Though I think Matt is the underdog here. BJ lost to Frankies speed and striking. Hughes has neither of those. No matter what, BJ will be in better condition than the last time they fought which isn’t good for Hughes. But you can never count that guy out of anything.
Shogun's knee will explode for the final time when Rashad shoots for the takedown.
BJ wont win because hes mentally checked out of fighting
To get his belt taken and then talk about how much he RESTED only to get it taken again, there obviously isnt much that motivates him anymore. Big country breakfast takes this one.
Loyality before Reality
Hughes is gonna put another beating on bj
Bj is gonna come into this fight fat as ever and Hughes will finish him in the third again. Bj is a waste of talent, and Hughes seems to be trending up as of late. War paychecks.

Hell, I don’t know how fighter to choose for this fight. Hope Hughes will come in a great shape and with a smart plan. BJ has to prove he still loves fighting.

Exactly!
This is probably the one fight out there that can get him motivated. If not than he is done! Sux bc physically he has a lot more left in him.
Anderson Silva is by far the number one P4P king!!! Even when he is losing a fight he still comes back and finishes for the win! GSP dominates the whole fight and still can't finish! LOL
Motivated, Penn is the favorite. If he comes like a slowdown Jardine Hughes will kick his ass out.

I would love to see Matt Hughes kick BJ's ass!
If BJ loses this fight he will retire. Just because BJ beat before doesnt mean he will do it again. BJ has no drive and Matt is becoming way nore active again. If they fight again I think Matt will destroy him, BJ is broken!
