Penn dominated Joe "Daddy" from the begining of the fight ending it in a bloody rear naked choke. It seemed as though Stevenson was just outclassed by the more powerfull, flexible and focused Penn.
Stevenson was opened up late in the first round with a glancing elbow. Stevenson knew as soon as it hit that he was cut wiping the flowing blood from his forhead and looking at his hand. Although it seemed not to crush his drive, it proved to be too much and shortly into the second round Stevenson gave up his back.
Penn (13-4-1) immediately went on the offense after the win and called out Sherk, who is serving a six-month ban for a positive steroids test. During the post fight interview with Joe Rogan Penn stated " Sherk, your dead!". Sherk then entered the ring to a round of boos from the Newcastle crowd. Penn then re-entered the ring and shook hands with the former champ and stated that their fight would be a good one.
