If you just look at his record and not at the fights, sure, BJ hasn't done much, but then if that's how you roll... I think the UFC should just start announcing fights and then then the winners/losers to save you the trouble. Then we can all debate who would win the next fight based on records and maybe occassionally the UFC can throw us an underdog win and we can go "Oh man, I didn't think Sanchez would lose that one, he was 20 - 0 and has fought tough competition while Penn is 10 - 4 and fat." This would also make it easier for the fighters, as they wouldn't have to risk being injured by stepping into the Octagon, or train for that matter. Only records should matter when determining how well a fighter fights, not his actual performance in those fights.
