In his last fight and his first fight at welterweight since losing the lightweight title, B.J. Penn quickly disposed of MMA legend Matt Hughes at UFC 123.
But though Hughes was one of the best welterweight fighters ever in the UFC, it's been a while since he was in his prime. This weekend, Penn will face a fighter in his prime: Jon Fitch.
Fitch uses his wrestling background to smother opponents. It's not the most exciting style, but it's effective. He hasn't lost since August of 2008, when he dropped a decision to champ Georges St. Pierre. Of Penn's recent losses, all three are in fights with opponents who used their wrestling skills to their advantage.
But as the video shows, that doesn't mean that Penn can't knock out a wrestler, as Hughes proudly touts wrestling as his base. What do you think will happen this weekend? Will Penn be able to stop Fitch's wrestling?
