The nightmare was day dreaming when he compared himself to the new and improved prodigy. Not only a victory but a vanquishing of Sanchez physically and most importantly, mentally. By the third round, Diego had no more weapons in his arsenal, no one to pray to that would save him from the demon aglow across the ring. This will be at best a lesson for Sanchez in the nature of a wise and now fit champion. At worst a scar on his face and a voice in his mind that may be hard to quite in his fighting future. Penn looked as good as he ever has...period. Standing was pure relaxed finesse with deceptive power in every shot. Take downs on him were, as usual, impossible. His defense of which was effortless and calm. He made Diego pay for every move he made. At fights end he appeared as though he could go five more. The real nightmare thought here, is that BJ the mythological Jiu jitsu player never had to go to the ground at all, to absolutely crush his opponent. The cherry on BJs pineapple upside down cake, a shin kick that split Diego's melon clean open. The legend steps back in, heart and soul. Who dares tread in front of him? Neither Maynard or Edgar as entertaining as they are, stand a chance. Penn walked on water. The nightmare was day dreaming when he compared himself to the new and improved prodigy.
