Damn...ya know I probably would have bet my house that Penn would win this one? He put together such a complete performance last time these two fought. It just seems that when a damned belt is on the line, Penn just doesn't show up the same way he does in other fights. Damn unfortunate too. I really wanted to put his face on the champion banner
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
