Urijah Faber vs. Bj Penn- who would win?

Question

and I know they are in diffrent weight classes but they both weight 145.

It would be a good fight right?

who do you think would win

Answer 1

It would be a bloodbath, the fight of the century! BJ is an very popular figure in the sport, so most people will pick him to win. I, on the other hand, have seen what Faber has done to the top BJJ Black Belts (Curran, Cruz, etc.). The threat of  submissions does not deter him nor slow the constant onslaught he unleashes on his opponents. Not a believer... watch his fights. Power, endurance and a lot of "sick" innovation is what you'll see.

Answer 2

Skillwise, pacewise, they are very close, but BJ is a whole lot bigger than Faber, and that would give him quite an edge.

Answer 3

B.J. Penn

Answer 4

Faber is good but I think BJ is better in every aspect of the game. So BJ by submission round 4.

Answer 5

faber wouldnt stand a chance... neither would any other lw in the world

Answer 6

BJ. HIs submissions are amazing pls he has great standup as well. I don't see Urijah being able to pull this one out. He would have to push the fight into the later rounds to have a chance at BJ's weakness: his cardio. Of course at lower weights  feel like his cardio is at a higher level than when he fights at 170+. I can't see how Urijah would be able to get the fight into the fourth and fifth rounds anyway, because of his own pressing style.

Answer 7

Bj's got some of the heavyiest hands in the world at lightweight (and welterweight too, just ask Matt Hughes), but his JJ will win the day over Faber. BJ is probably one of the best jiu jitsu MMA guys in the world, and he is extremely flexible. Faber has better wrestling and is quicker, but I think BJ takes this in the second round by submission, probably a triangle or arm bar.

Answer 8

Faber would give Penn a tough time, but I think BJ is too good.  He would beat Faber.
