Sure, I'd concede that St. Pierre probably has the edge in conditioning, and can outlast Penn in the gym. He looks more like a fighter.
But we have all seen fighters that do not have the six pack abs, traps, lats, and waxed their bodies to look like A&F models destroy dudes that are physical specimens (see Heath Herring v. Cheick Kongo, or Tim Sylvia v. Andrei Orlovsky).
BJ Penn is a tough son of a bitch, and he doesn't get intimidated; GSP's breakdance moves and nut-hugging spandex don't mean sh*t to him. Having said that, I still think GSP wins the fight by decision-- and that is hard to write.
