No, watch again closely, he says "I wanted to fight as often as possible but now I donno...well let it play out"

Are you sure? I heard, "I still want to fight as often as possible"

"I want to send a message to all my fans. I want to thank you for all the support over the years and last night. I didn't think things were going to go my way. I want to just sit back and spend time with the family. relax, take it easy. I wanted to fight as much as possible but right now I want to relax and take it easy and im sure everything will sort its self out, but I want to thank everyone for the support over the years"

The BJ era is over men.

The sound quality on the video sucks balls, are you sure he says "wantED" instead of "want". Honestly I can tell and I have the volume turned up.

wanted but the sentence wouldn't make sense in the context of "want" anyway, not based on the tone and what he says after.

Yeah it sounded like a "wanted"

I think people are overreacting, Penn lost to Edgar, but he'll beat any other contender at LW.
People aren't giving Frankie enough credit here.

do U mean any other contendor in the UFC? Cause a couple guys outside it could pose the same exact problems Edgar did. I don't think we can right off Maynard either.

I would pick BJ over Alvarez, Melendez and Aoki.

The Gilbert Melendez that lost at Yarennoka! is one thing, but the incarnation we've seen in Strikeforce would have beat 118 Penn's face in worse than Edgar imo. Eddie Alvarez is more hittable than given credit for, so he has less of a chance.

Gun to you head if you don't pick the right guy you're dead....who do you pick? I'm just saying.

The BJ that fought at 118 would lose to ten+ guys at least half the time. What a horrific performance. The fight game is half physical, 90% mental.

Eh, I won't argue with that. Same can be said about Kenny. Neither guy looked like they wanted to fight. Broken will, disinterest, frustration or whatever it was, it wasn't pretty.
