Following two-straight losses to new UFC lightweight champion Frankie
Edgar, B.J. Penn looks to return to winning
ways at this weekend’s UFC 123 event in a welterweight bout with Matt
Hughes.
It’s Penn’s first fight at 170 pounds since an unsuccessful bid for
George St-Pierre’s title in January 2009, but the Hawaiian says it may
not be his last.
Despite only mixed results in past welterweight contests, Penn said he may again test the waters of the 170-pound division.
