Wow. Penn brought nothing to the GP other than his toughness. He did totally bring that. Hansen went to complete town and did HUGE damage on Penn the entire fight, until Penn finally died. Or his corner through in the towel. Not sure. But this was a brutally one-sided affair, considering how legit Penn is at a typical GP.

Wow. Penn brought nothing to the GP other than his toughness. He did totally bring that. Hansen went to complete town and did HUGE damage on Penn the entire fight, until Penn finally died. Or his corner through in the towel. Not sure. But this was a brutally one-sided affair, considering how legit Penn is at a typical GP.
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
