No a victory over Penn will not make GSP a champion. He would have to beat Matt. Penn isn't the champion. He lost the belt because he broke the rules and couldn't defend it. By your logic Trigg should be the champion of the people because he beat Hallman and he submitted Hughes twice.
Matt Hughes is the champion at 170lbs. No one else. Regardless of what BJ may think. And the ONLY way to become champion is to beat Hughes.
