We all agree immediate rematch for BJ right?

I mean I'm still a bit in shock, thought it was def close, but still 3-2 BJ or a draw at worst. Going up to WW would seem retarded now, I think there has to be an immediate rematch, perhaps in Hawaii.

hopefully it doesnt take them as long as it has taked to get Rua and Lloyoto in a cage.

I scored it a draw. 1,2 for BJ, 3 even, 4 and 5 for Edgar.

Well Machida had injuries

ahhh forgot about that.

with a win over BJ in a rematch where would Frankies LW reign already rank???????

Well he'd have to wins in Titl fights over the greatest LW ever, so pretty damn good, but needs longevity.

i know its just crazy that this really happened, this rematch will play a big part

Frankie Edgar the next Jens Pulver?

closest Pulver look alike to me, even if Frankie loses to BJ in a rematch he still could have a better reign than Sherk

pretty crazy, big shake up

no one saw Jens coming either

Exactly

I hope they can hammer this rematch out quick, even though I wouldnt blame Frankie at all for not wanting an immediate rematch.

anybody know how many fights BJ has left on contract??

I'd like to see Edgar vs Florian 1st.

I think BJ deserves an immeadiate rematch but I dont know what Dana said at the press conference after the fight about the decision? Have u guys heard what his response was to the decision yet?

He said Edgar fought a great fight, he implemented a gameplan and stuck to it.

BJ should fight Kenny. Kenny really needs to do something big to get his 3rd title shot. So beating BJ would earn him that shot. BJ vs Kenny for #1 contender fight. Let Frankie fight Gray in the meantime.

I say give Maynard a title shot. He's only undefeated with 7 UFC wins in a row, including one over Edgar.

Let BJ fight the winner of Griffin-Dunham. That should be an easier fight for BJ to get another title shot.

KenFlo already had 2 title shots and lost them both. I say let him fight Sherk again before he gets his.

Champ: Edgar
#1 Contender: Maynard
#2 in Line: the winner of Penn vs Griffin/Dunham
#3 in Line: the winner of KenFlo vs Sherk

something tells me we will see BJ VS Hughes 3.

yep. I hthink BJ will look towards WW and Frankie fights Maynard. Give Florain a wrestling test.

BJ lost his title in a fight that alot of people thought he won so im not sure why he should have to fight Kenny who is a top 2 or 3 contender in the division to get a shot at the division he has dominated for years.

I don't think Dunham or T. Griifin is ready to fight someone of BJ's magnitude. They need a little more seasoning. Put BJ in against a veteran with some panache, like Guida. Kenny can fight Sherk, which provides a good story line, Edgar defends against Maynard to clean up his record too! Those are easy sales right there.

That doesnt sound to bad at all.

The same was said about Edgar before the fight to. Griffin's been in there with Faber, Edgar, Sherk, Guilda, dos Anjos, and Franca. While non of those are BJ Penn, he is ready as he'll ever be for BJ. Plus beating Griffin >>>> beating Guida.

Dana didn't really sound 100% sure about a rematch. Didn't bring it up in the press conference at all

So I've found only 1 place that scored it for Frankie, the board gives the majority to BJ, Fight Metric had BJ landing more shots. How should there not be a immediate rematch?

And the way you all reacted after Machida/Shogun vs. now?

And KenFlo, he needs to fight a top LW before he gets another shot, Gray, Sherk, Griffin a step up from the Guida's, Huerta's and Stevenson's of the division.

this fight was closer than Machida vs Rua IMO
