    GSP-Penn is 'Hagler-Hearns' LMAO!!!!!!!

    Don't you all love how UFC is biting off boxing in the lead up to this BJ Penn fight. Frankly, it's pissing me off. First they try to copy 24/7 with thier weekly hype show which IMO is a failure. Now they are comparing GSP-Penn to one of the greatest match-ups in Boxing history, WTF. Dana White is a ****in *******.

    GSP-Penn is ‘Hagler-Hearns’
    UFC 94 is LIVE on PPV Jan. 31!
    By Chris Cozzone
    It’s not often when a great champion in one division leaps up to battle a great champion in a heavier division. Last month in boxing, Manny Pacquiao made the jump to soundly defeat Oscar De Hoya—this month, the focus is on B.J. Penn, UFC lightweight champion who will jump from 155 to 170 to take on Georges St. Pierre, UFC welterweight champ . . . Click here for more

        They're smart. UFC uses established ideas and use it to their benefit. Boxing should take lessons and bite some of the tactics of UFC.

            GSP-Penn is not and will never be "Hagler vs Hearns". They can fight 100 times, it won't happen. White is an idiot and people who get suckered into believing that this fight will be anything like that legendary fight are morons.

                  they are just trying to widen their audience and attracting the boxing fans to their show. Luckily for them boxing has an history to refer to, boxing could never do the same...lol referring to a boxing bout as the next Liddel vs Jackson would sound utterly ******ed.

                    It'll be nothing like Hagler-Hearns, but it is the best fight that can be made in UFC.

                    And I like to hear White making a reference(or two with the Pac/DLH thing) to boxing without a negative connotation.

                    I'm not much of a fan of MMA, but I see no reason why MMA and Boxing can't co-exist. That's kind of what I'm rooting for.
