Former two-division UFC champion BJ Penn earned the Knockout of the Night at UFC 123 for his thrilling finish over UFC Hall of Famer Matt Hughes Saturday in Auburn Hills, Mich.
Penn floored Hughes with an overhand right and followed up with punches on the ground to close out the trilogy two-to-one in a mere 21 seconds. The performance bonus will add an additional $80,000 to Penn’s final earnings for the fight.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. – UFC president Dana White believes that BJ Penn is such a proud man that if he had lost at UFC 123, a defeat that would have marked three straight losses, he would have retired.
It’s safe to say Penn isn’t calling it quits anytime soon.
Instead, the Hawaiian mixed martial arts legend provided a rejuvenating jolt to his already-storied career, knocking out former two-time welterweight champion Matt Hughes in just 21 seconds before 16,404 fans at The Palace of Auburn Hills.
“I honestly don’t want to sit here and beat my chest over beating Matt,” Penn told MMA Fighting after capturing the rubber match of the trilogy. “He’s just another guy like me who’s been around the sport a long time. I’m very fortunate things went the way they did tonight. Besides that, I don’t want to harp on anything else.”

George Sotiropoulos showed once again on Saturday night that he’s one of the best ground fighters in the lightweight division in mixed martial arts, submitting Joe Lauzon with a second-round kimura at UFC 123.
“I want to face the best, I want to earn what I get, I want to make a case for the belt,” Sotiropoulos said after the win, which improved his record to 14-2. “I’m going to keep making that case.”
Sotiropoulos is making the case that he deserves a lightweight title shot, and he’ll get that shot in 2011 if he keeps winning.

In at least one way, UFC 123 is already a disappointment. To me, anyway.
I would have thought that when you put Lyoto Machida – a fighter known for drinking his own urine – together with “Rampage” Jackson – a fighter known for his played out bad breath jokes – we would have had comedy gold by now. I would have thought the combination of necessity and opportunity would help break some new ground in the field of bad breath jokes. Sort of like the polio vaccine, only much, much less helpful to society.
No such luck so far. Guess that means we’ll have to put our hopes in the fights themselves to entertain us. Let’s start with a look at how oddsmakers think Saturday night’s event will play out, along with some suggestions on where they might be wrong.
Lyoto Machida (-280) vs. Quinton “Rampage” Jackson (+220)
