BJ needs to be put against a striker who's at his level. I thought Kenny would be the one but once he started bleeding he opted for takedowns and wrestling. Unfortunately, I can't think of anyone in the UFC who's at BJ's level of striking.

What makes BJ so good is that if you put him in with a superior striker, he will take them down and sub them. If you put him in with a wrestler or a sub guy, he will keep it standing and bang.

Pair that with one of the best take down defenses the sport has seen, he really has the tools to dictate where he wants the fight to go.

agreed but at this point since we've already seen how he easily handles 'wrestler turned average strikers' fighters, lets see him against the likes of Hansen. BJ would still win with 95% certainty but its all about the "What if?" :lol:

edit. just realized BJ could simply move to 170 and same thing would be accomplished :lol:
