Jesus. I'm surprised Penn can walk cuz he's got balls the size of Maui. Of course, the small guy vs. big guy fight has happened numerous times before (e.g. Royce vs. Akebono, Sudo vs. Butterbean). But we're talking about a smaller guy with skills against a much bigger guy with skills. Should be interesting.

Wow, interesting fight. Thanks
I hope Ryoto hurts him, so his ego gets knocked down a couple notches...

Yeah, Penn has balls but Ryoto is a top level fighter. He beat the crap out of Rich Franklin. If Penn somehow wins this fight, and I don't think he will, I will be not only surprised but down right shocked. Penn has a lot of talent, but so does Ryoto and he is nearly 40 lbs heavier than anyone Penn has ever fought.

I didn't know this, but apparently Machida fought TUF's very own Stephan Bonner over at Jungle Fight in Brazil. The fight was stopped because of a cut. There's a short clip of it over at Sherdog.com
