Obviously he's he's a he's a big star -- is a big paper view draw hand you don't when he first came into this thing I think a lot of people didn't like him from people hated them. Well then everybody had to sit back and think about now well imagine what the sports can be like -- Brock lesnar. So I think people -- I have actually think he gained more fans I think people excited he's back. BJ Penn destroy Diego Sanchez and USC 107. Is there anyone that can compete with the prodigy in the lightweight division. -- and you know it's gonna fight Frankie Edgar next in Abu Dhabi calm and you know he's close cleaning out their entire division should he. Clean out that division. He's probably gonna move back up to -- 170 pounds. Take out a couple of you know number two or three guys and probably try another crack at George saint Pierre because this -- a totally different fighter than it was before. He's always coasted on talent. Never put in the work that you should put in you know and and now he is he's a different fighters who I think. Tom George -- BJ Penn and 170 pounds -- in part again. Then -- critics have been talking more about the combined age of mark Coleman and Randy couture. And less about the fact that these two guys are coming off wins over much younger fighters how to respond to that. I agree with -- 100% exactly I.

It's ridiculous to even talk about Herschel Walker he was a great football player back in his day. All what the guys never -- what was gonna become the heavyweight champions know I mean. Now we're talking about a fight Jose Canseco it's a complete freak show it's it's ridiculous umpire didn't hear about it. -- lost a unanimous decision a damn hard and you see 105. Is his fight against politic got a must win to get to the top of the welterweight division. Yeah it's a big -- switch you know all the guys came off he's one of the ultimate fighter have gone on to you know either win titles or. You know are ranked in the -- and the top of their weight categories and zwick has been one of those guys has been count -- plagued with injuries. And the dinner party fighting felt what's his big coming out party. He was gonna go out when that Kandahar a hardy by and you know it was a big step back perhaps we got that it's a big night tomorrow night from Mike quick.
