BJ Penn Threatens Cesar Gracie As Twitter Feud Continues

Photo

The on going beef between Nick Diaz's coach, Cesar Gracie and B.J. Penn continues.

It all started with Penn tweeting Diaz, complaining about the way he fought and taking a shot at Jon Fitch in the process. Gracie responded, saying that Penn is surrounded by "Yes Men" and that he always has excuses for every single loss.

A furious Penn once again took to twitter, and even threatened the 46-year-old MMA and BJJ coach:

@CesarGracieBJJ Excuses?? The whole world knows I lost the fight including myself. I’m tired of you talking down to me Cesar, I hope you’re in training camp right now because the next time I see you, you better not be “scared homie!”

Won’t Penn feel stupid when he gasses out trying to fight Cesar, he’s gotta get over it. Everything Cesar said is true.

Pretty much

BJ’s first post sounded an awful lot like a bunch of excuses.

He always has excuses when he gets an ass whooping. Hughes – rib, GSP – grease, now this. Lame.

BJ should stop

If he feels ill will towards Cesar he should just watch the Frank Shamrock vs Cesar Gracie fight :)

Diaz beat Penn soundly, time for Penn to retire, tired of his excuses

I am willing to test myself against the toughest fighters in the world, in front of hundreds of thousands or even millions of fans, over and over again. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose, but I always come to fight. I've been doing this for the past fourteen years, and I have at least a few more strong years left in me. What have you done in the past fourteen years other than act like a moron on this forum and hang on Anderson's nuts? - Dan Henderson.

This is really making Penn look bad. Its a shame, too. I thought he and Diaz were a class act in the build up to this fight, and now this? So pointless on his part. There’s no reason for it, Diaz is fighting Condit, and I reckon that’s that. Nate would slap him around at this point in their ca-reers, and frankly, Penn has looked pretty bad in his last few fights. I’ve no interest in seeing him fight anymore, unless its on a re-run on FUEL or something. B.J. Penn brought me back to the UFC, but its time for him to move on. Have A Nice Day!

Am i the only one that's just really indifferent about this?

I’m as big a Penn fan as the next guy, but all of this stuff just seems like fluffed up posturing for a fight that won’t happen.

B.J. just needs to put on his big boy hula skirt and move on.

Have faith, homey! The 49ers are for real, and will make a deep run, I think in a head to head versus GB that they win that game, mostly due to the lack of defense on GB’S part. Oughtta be a really fun playoffs this season!

This just feels like a bunch of “manufactured drama.” I don’t know who cooked it up, but it really sounds uncharacteristic of the guy that complained about the UFC forcing him to trash talk Diaz prior to their fight.

in a couple of interviews right after the fght that Diaz did some things in the fight that annoyed him, he just didnt get specific.

Give BJ the training and work ethic of Nick Diaz and he would still be undefeated at 155.

GSP is hurt right now. But I think that’s the guy you’re thinking of.

But seriously, BJ with Nick’s work ethic would have probably beat Georges(twice).

I think BJ just got angry

because in many ways Nick Diaz got famous because of this loss and there were many people who made this fight as if he had been totally humiliated by Nick Diaz when its not the truth. BJ fought well and bravely in my opinion went through all rounds with Nick and has made him also look pretty torn in the end of the fight. It’s not as if Diaz knocked him out totally. And yes I think he would like a refight now so so badly that Nick’s star has begun to rise. It’s not nice but it makes waves anyways. I also think that the bullying ways of the Diaz brothers, which initially makes them win has also made him angry.

finally someone gets it! nick does this same shit after every wrestler he fights and no one says anything about his tdd being horrible and that he’s lazy. but whatever since i smoke weed too im suppose to support the diaz brothers anyway right? come on cesar gracie lives in a glass dome with his fighters to be talking about bj in the first place especially with nick’s dumb antics if you wanna bring up bj’s excuses. either way i just wish GSP was here to beat them both and kill what little fairy tale their fans have created for them. i ramble and i hate cesar gracie and his fighters so what dont like it? idc no f’cks are given at all im the cool black guy who must be doing well because everything i own is also white and i walk like this
