Surefire UFC Hall of Famer fighter B.J. Penn isn’t ready to hang up the gloves. In fact, according to Tuesday night’s UFC Tonight, the former dual-division champion is priming himself for a return to 155 pounds.
This news comes only weeks after Dana White told the viewers of the UFC 160 press conference that he feels as if “The Prodigy” should hang up his gloves for good.
He’s too tough for his own good. You don’t knock out B.J. Penn. B.J. Penn absorbs every amount of punishment you can give him, doesn’t mean he hasn’t taken damage. He’s taken a lot of damage and I don’t want to see him take anymore.
Regardless of whether or not you agree with White’s assessment, this Hawaiian tough guy is heading back to the cage and in need of an opponent. Here is a look at five fights for B.J. Penn to take at lightweight.
