The main event of UFC 137 tonight (Sat., Oct. 29, 2011) in Las Vegas, Nevada, although re-worked a million times, settled on a welterweight war pitting two of the greatest mixed martial artists in recent memory, as B.J. Penn and Nick Diaz took it to the cage to slug it out.
They were friends before stepping inside the Octagon but became enemies just as soon as the horn sounded. The staredown at the weigh-in promised us fireworks tonight. Did it deliver?
It sure did. Diaz, the Strikeforce welterweight champion, showed exactly why he deserves all the accolades he's received for the past few years, as he blew right past "The Prodigy" in a three round slugfest.
There was no finish, but this one lived up to the carnage it promised. Georges St. Pierre, were you watching?
Penn came out aggressive, throwing punches early and looking to engage his pugilistic foe. Diaz responded with a clinch and some knees but they quickly disengaged and went back to slinging leather.
Once it went to the floor, "The Prodigy" looked to take the advantage by taking Diaz's back but he was defended expertly by the Gracie jiu-jitsu black belt.
The remained of the round featured Penn using Diaz's own strategy against him, peppering him with punches to close out the first five minutes.
Round two saw the kid from Stockton act accordingly, as he taunted the pride of Hilo, Hawaii, by launching his own head into Penn's many jabs. It was clear, though, that B.J. had the edge standing up.
Midway through the frame the blood was in the water ... and it was Penn's. He was tired and Diaz, a world class triathlete, smelled it and started taking advantage. Those peppering shots didn't feel so light anymore.
Diaz put Penn against the fence and just started unloading. "The Prodigy" backed away but couldn't run far enough to get away from the onslaught. Stockton's own walked the Hawaiian down and just unloaded.
Punch after punch after punch after punch against the cage. Somehow, someway, Penn made it to the third and final frame while the crowd chanted Diaz's name.
Out early in the third and Penn came swinging. It didn't matter, though, because Diaz kept the pressure on. The only option for B.J. was to shoot for a takedown, which he did ... but he couldn't get it.
These two literally threw the kitchen sink at each other, trying to do whatever they could to finish the fight. Ultimately, it was Diaz who walked away with the unanimous decision win after three hard-fought round.
Title shot?

not a hater
Just don’t think Diaz can hang with the elite of the division. You gotta admit Penn looked horrible tonight. I say give Diaz a title shot and let him join the rest of the division who can’t hang with GSP.
He just beat the same BJ that took Fitch to a draw.

BJ looked horrible because Diaz made him look horrible
He forced him into a fast paced stand-up fight and nobody beats Diaz in a fight like that.

Great fucking fight!
That’s the kind of guy I want to see as the WW champ! I love BJ Penn but maybe him retiring isn’t such a bad thing. He has nothing left to prove and he still looked like a badass against Diaz knowing how tired he was.
If boxing is a science then MMA is astrophysics.
Shocked how well he did in the 3rd after getting battered in the 2nd
UFC 137: Jacoby TKO 1, Camozzi SUB 2, Vera KO 3, Downes KO 2, Palaszewski UD, Hioki SUB 2, Cerrone UD, Jorgensen UD, Kongo KO 3, Nelson KO 2, Penn UD
Yeah, that's what impressed me the most.
I though he was gonna be done in the 3rd. Fucker has heart. Still went in there and banged with him. This was a better 3 round war than Chuck/Wandy imo.

GSP will be able to stall quite a bit in the guard position while on top if he gets tired.
Albeit Diaz has an active and aggressive guard, it will be his safest bet. Don’t forget the most tiring aspect of a fight and GSP owns it… Wrestling
by UltimateHuggingChampionship on Oct 30, 2011 12:11 AM EDT up reply actions
Hmmm
You realize that Georges has fought the last 6-7 fights all at 5 rounds?
I know Nick does triathalons, but GSP is king of in -the cage triathalons. As much as people hate him, they have to give him some credit.
Georgie Safe Pierre will wrestle rape for the decision win
But Diaz is the most dangerous guard Georgie will ever lay in, and that list includes BJ and Mayhem.
UFC 137: Jacoby TKO 1, Camozzi SUB 2, Vera KO 3, Downes KO 2, Palaszewski UD, Hioki SUB 2, Cerrone UD, Jorgensen UD, Kongo KO 3, Nelson KO 2, Penn UD
I don't know if I personally agree with that
But even if true, you cannot just write off how easily Georges has neutralized those guys’ bjj game. It’s still very impressive.
Don't see how that was pathetic...
Diaz has a pace that tires out most fires and even when BJ was tired he still stayed in there trading with Diaz. He looked like a fuckin warrior I thought.

I actually hate both BJ and Nick
So this was a win win for me.
But IMO, BJ has been training lightly for years. He’s great at technique, but never really took the other pieces; ie weight training, cardio, plyometrics seriously.
So, he keeps his weakness around.
I agree that his cardio has never been impressive at all at WW
LW it’s fine but like I said. Diaz can tire out most fighters and BJ still traded with him like a pimp. Gotta respect that.

I respect both as fighters and for putting on a great fight.
I hate Diaz as a person though.
By the way, may I ask how you came up with your sig?
hmmm
id like to see you go three rounds with diaz let alone 1 round keyboard warrior..either way good fight i hope to see condit vs diaz
First of all
I train in multople martial arts, so I do know what combat is.
It is pathetic that BJ still takes his Cardio so lightly considering how it’s been his weakness forever.
he had great cardio tonight?

Did you see me compare myself to anyone?
Did you see your own comments inciting me as a “keyboard warrior”? So who started shit?
Nick’s pace is great, he’s a skilled fighter. BJ is just as skilled. Cardio made the difference.
I did when you mentioned
that you train in “multople” martial arts emphasizing that you get it and others don’t. If you did then you’d understand the points that I already made above. Don’t pull that "keyboard warrior" shit with me like I’m talking shit about BJ when you called him pathetic. lol Diaz will make 95% of fighters gas so don’t act like it was BJ this time. In the past yes, but I don’t think that was the case tonight.

Really?
Go back and see who pulled the “keyboard warrior shit”.
Nick has great cardio. Not arguing that. And as much as I hate BJ, I did not call him pathetic. But his cardio CLEARLY is.
I already did.
“Pathetic”, remember? I know you’re talking about his cardio but still. You’d think some1 who trains would have more respect for a fighter like Penn. Just saying. It just came off like a d-baggy comment to me so I had to talk about it. You’re coming off better in these replies though but BJ’s a fucking stud. I hate his cardio issues too just like I hate those injury issues with Shogun.

With all due respect
I am not here to appease or impress you. Opinions are everyone’s right. So while I seem like a d bag to you for mine, you seem like an ass clown to me for calling me a keyboard warrior.
That said, I can appreciate your points, and I still believe my point is relevant. BJ is that one guy we all know who doesn’t take training seriously because he’s so technically gifted.
I hate both him and Diaz, but if this is BJ’s last fight, a part of me will be sad.
That's good
cause I’m not impressed. lol I said you had a d-baggy comment, not that you were a d-bag. Don’t misquote me. You were the one who mentioned “keyboard warrior” first so don’t pretend that I pulled that shit out here. Also, don’t use the word “ass clown”, for real.
I never said you’re point wasn’t relevant, which I already even agreed with. It was just how you came out saying it. I’m not the only person bustin your chops about this either if you’ll look around so maybe I’m not the problem.
Take that for what it’s worth man. We’ll agree to disagree on certain things.

Your level of unimpressed-ness does not impress me.
I can use ass clown of I like. I can also use butt-scratcher, or even if you like, douche-pressure washer.
I always appreciate some good verbal joshing, so none of this bothers me. But I find it amusing that you continue to somehow acuse me of using “keyboard warrior” when that clearly came from you.
And this is Mania
Everyone gets their balls broken by someone. It’s a rite of passage.
Whether you and someone else both disagree with me or not, does not make you both right.
Agree to disagree is spot on though.
as an mma fan i'd hate to be the one to say it
but maybe diaz SHOULD go into boxing
. . . Penny . . . Penny . . . Penny
nah
im a huge Diaz fan but he would get messed up in boxing because he doesnt have great defense bj landed some shots on him but Nick’s chin is legendary
HUHUHU?
he’d have a completely different stance/style in boxing, not having to block anything but punches. plus, he’d have bigger gloves, and more rounds to wear out his opponents/ wouldn’t have to take as many chances

true
if he does he better become a gym rat and train non-stop with Andre Ward that dude know boxing defense I still think Nick will try boxing full time eventually his body shots are brutal and thats a must to be a good boxer
haha
i was wondering who said that that is pretty classy of caeser this is the same guy who hoodwinked bj though
He had to go out at some time.
This was such a depressing card though.

where the haters at?
diaz vs. GSP or Condit if he wins cant wait damn i hope bj doesnt retire just because of this just go back to lightweight but so pumped for Nick best win of his career 209!!! DOMINATED PENN
Great heart shown by my boy BJ Penn, he’s a warrior, he’s been doing this with the top competition in every fight for 10+ years
I respect his decision if he wants to leave, getting forced into a gatekeeper situation in lightweight or welterweight, he has a second child on the way, doesn’t need to stick around if he’s not fighting the top competition and adding names to his legendary career
like Nick said
David Terrell where you at? If him and Shields help out Nick with his wrestling he could beat GSP
depressing card
Sure glad I had a great stream tonight.
Vera: garbage
Cro Cop: done 5 fights ago, officially retired
Bj: fed up with Dana, retired
Mitrione: over-rated
GSP: called out for a bullshit injury I called from the get-go
Gonna be a rocky future for this thing. Brock won’t fight Reem, GSP loses to both Diaz and Condit….MMA just died a little bit more tonight.

He's really not overrated.
If you don’t like him for whatever reason then fine but the guy is far from OR. If you’re judging this because of his win/loss ratio then that’s stupid cause he’s fought at weight classes so much higher than his and will fight anyone at any time. Nothing overrated about BJ Penn.

No matter how good Condits cardio is, it’s not on Diaz level, period. If he can’t dictate the fight he can’t win, simple as that. Is Condit a better striker than BJ coming forward? No he isn’t.

I want to see that fight as well
Depends when Diaz is cleared for his next fight and if Carlos has the courage to risk the title shot and take on Nick. That fight would be a war if it happens, I’d obviously pick Nick but they both have similar styles so it would make for a classic back and forth fight.

Know your Bones: Did you know Jon "Bones" Jones is the only man to stop a robbery and win a UFC title on the same night?
Diaz took some damage too
Georgie will heal up from his “injury” much quicker than Diaz’s face will heal
UFC 137: Jacoby TKO 1, Camozzi SUB 2, Vera KO 3, Downes KO 2, Palaszewski UD, Hioki SUB 2, Cerrone UD, Jorgensen UD, Kongo KO 3, Nelson KO 2, Penn UD
Diaz always takes damage
It’s part of his fighting style, he drops his hands so he can land more and usually gets cut up in the process.
I found it funny how GSP was claiming that he’s 100% now though, there’s something very dodgy about that injury and as much as I joke about GSP to annoy his fans I know he doesn’t decline fights, kind of convenient how he’s now set to fight Diaz at the Superbowl UFC in a fight that now has a tonne more hype behind it.

Quit hating and give Nick his Due ,….he destroyed BJ like no one else ever has….no one
"Don't be Scared ,Homie!!!"-Nick Diaz
I think he fears GSP's top game like he does BJ's back control ......he reacts wherever the fight goes.....He is the real deal

29-27???
How the hell is a 29-27 score possible without a point deduction in a 10-pt must system???

and the first round was very close
Penn started off strong but Diaz started to find his range in the late 1st
Feel like an idiot now. Thanks!

USC isnt in the SEC dumb fuck.
But Bama, LSU, and ARKANSAS are and they will walk all over Andrew Luck(Stanford). SEC is by far the most dominant division in any sport. For proof watch national championship games.
I have issued my statement. If Chael wins against Silva, im officially the coolest guy on Mania and have the coolest dvd collection. If he loses.....then I shall leave Mania for good....
Should have known better than to pick the ultimate disapointment that is BJ Penn, i’m glad that he retired let’s face it after what Fitch did to him he shouldn’t even have been in the cage tonight. He’s also lucky that he wasn’t fighting Condit who would have stopped him unlike Diaz, seriously I can’t believe that i’m going to have to put up with the hype on this guy for the rest of the year.

are you serious
now you think Penn is done come on now Diaz dominated anybody else would have been TKO’d but BJ’s chin and heart kept him in it
not even Condit would have finished him I think BJ could have subbed him
Carlos Condit
I think Nick needs to fight Condit then GSP. Condit is much taller and stronger than BJ.

Huh?
Is retiring BJ Penn not enough for you?
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!!?

If I may play devil's advocate:
Condit is a different fighter.
He has great wrestling, more of a muay thai base, so he uses kicks more.
Nick is far superior in boxing and bjj.
I agree, it would be a war.
Nick Diaz that came out tonight beats Condit
But maybe not GSP

Fitch might beat him but it'd be hard to keep Nick blanketed

I am very
Much entertained, that was an epic fight. Just the reach was a clear advantage and with someone much taller such as Condit it msy have played out differently. Btw do you guys think Nivk can beat mr GSP? I think he’s just going to keep taking Diaz down over and over IMO.

Diaz does not need to prove himself against Condit was my point
And in my opinion it won’t be nearly as easy for St Pierre to take Diaz down as many are saying.
