Oh man, you thought last week’s Rumor Funhouse was grossly irresponsible? You guys have no idea what’s in store for you. Today’s installment features five warm ‘n fuzzy tales, all about the romantic bond. Four of them have been completely made up, either by us or by other people. One of them is actually legit. Can you separate the bullshit from the chicken salad? (That’s what they say down South, right?) Read on if you dare. Actually, don’t. Just move along. You’ll be a lot better off for it…

Many thought the end was coming for Matt Hughes. After losing to Thiago Alves at UFC 85, Hughes — once a dominant welterweight champ — suddenly found himself the loser of three out of four matches. Perhaps more alarmingly, he had been finished in all three defeats.
After accomplishing so much in his storied career, it seemed like Hughes had nothing left to fight for, and some suggested retirement was his best option.
Fast forward to today, and it’s obvious the naysayers were a little premature in writing his career obituary. Heading towards Saturday’s UFC 123, Hughes is on the verge of winning four straight fights and possibly even working his way back into contender status. So how did he do it? Simple, the power of positive thinking.

One week before his UFC 123 co-main event, BJ Penn is already in Michigan, awaiting his matchup with Matt Hughes, so travel problems during fight week will be no concern to the Hawaii star.
Cross one other potential concern off his list as well: making weight.
During Saturday night’s UFC 122 broadcast, Penn told Joe Rogan that he’d be several pounds under the welterweight divisional limit, saying he currently weighed 165 pounds. Welterweight fighters in non-title fights can weigh as much as 171 pounds.

If you were to ask a room full of MMA fans and reporters if they think that BJ Penn’s best days as a fighter are behind him, many, if not most would say they were, but as The Prodigy told Joe Rogan on the most recent episode of UFC Ultimate Insider, he doesn’t feel that he has reached his full potential and he that with the right training and mindset he will one day be one of the best fighters in the sport.
When asked by Rogan if he would change anything he did during his career, Penn said that he would do it all over again without doing anything differently as he has learned from everything he has done.
"I wouldn’t do anything different. I woulda did it just like that. I wish I could look back and say, ‘I wish how I was gonna train right now for the Matt Hughes fight I trained like this when I was 20 years old,’ but it wouldn’t have worked then," BJ explains. "It wouldn’t have worked that way. You gotta find what works for you. That’s what I believe. I believe once I do [find what works best for me] I’ll be able to hit that peak. We’re just getting started."

November is a month without any title fights, which makes it a good time to take a long view of the future title picture in each weight class. Today we look at the welterweight division.
George St. Pierre‘s dominance over the welterweight division looked so great after his beatdown of Dan Hardy in March that it was starting to look like the UFC might have a little trouble selling anyone else as a credible threat to St. Pierre, who had already defeated all of the UFC’s other top welterweights.
But two things have happened since then: The UFC signed Jake Shields and he won his first fight in the Octagon to become the No. 1 welterweight contender, and the current season of The Ultimate Fighter has done a good job of building up some heat for St. Pierre’s upcoming fight with Josh Koscheck. So the UFC’s welterweight division is in good shape going forward, and we’ll look at the key fighters and key fights below.
