BJ is one of my favorites to watch when he loses. That second loss to Frankie Edgar was priceless for me.

BJ got beat up. What a great fight it was.
Thought this'd be a fitting pic to end this thread: and on a side note, B.J. has released a statement saying he was "gonna take some time off to relax and teach" so he may not be retiring after all!
Is that pic for real ? I love it.
yea it's for real, those dudes were/are homies who really and truly didn't want to have to fight each other, but manned up and did what they had to do, no hard feelings afterward cause it was "just business"! both of them dudes moved up on my favorites list after seeing how they handled themselves in and outta the cage after that fight!!!!!
