Much of the MMA world was at least somewhat shocked when news broke earlier this month that BJ Penn would return against fellow veteran Clay Guida.
Penn will take on “The Carpenter” at May’s UFC 237 from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It’s a high-profile spot to return, yet many thought “The Prodigy” would mercifully hang it up after his submission loss to Ryan Hall at last December’s UFC 232.
However, that’s not the case. Penn will despite not having won a fight since a late 2010 knockout over fellow former champion Matt Hughes. He’s lost six bouts in a row, a number of defeats that UFC athletes are usually released for far before reaching. But Penn is a legend despite his downward-trending numbers, so he gets yet another chance. His name is really the only thing keeping him afloat.
That became clear when Guida appeared on this week’s episode of ‘The MMA Hour,’ where he discussed his surprise at Penn’s stagnating results. ‘The Carpenter’ said he had to have a friend point out to him that Penn had not won since 2010:
“You know what, someone brought that to my attention the other day. It was a close friend of mine who’s a huge fight fan, he’s very knowledgeable about the sport, and I couldn’t believe it when he said that it’s been 2010 since he won a fight. So I mean, it’s kind of hard to believe that, it’s hard to think that a guy who was a former two-time champion at lightweight and welterweight, you know, hasn’t won a fight in nine-plus years. It’s pretty incredible. But you know what, getting in the cage with someone like BJ Penn, you know, is an opportunity you can’t turn down.”
Despite that fact, Guida admitted he couldn’t turn down fighting a legend. As many call for him to retire, the longtime fan favorite said only Penn, his family, and his team were the ones who could make that call:
“But getting in the cage with someone like BJ Penn, it’s an opportunity you can’t turn down. He’s the only one, and his camp and his family are the only ones to say if he should be competing or not. So that’s totally up to him. I’m not in a position to say that. So I’m accepting the fight, and we’re going to put on a show for the fans.”

Santiago Ponzinibbio is looking for a big fight for his Octagon return. And rightfully so. The Argentinian is on a seven-fight win streak with four wins coming by way of knockout.

Santiago Ponzinibbio is looking for a big fight for his Octagon return.
And rightfully so. The Argentinian is on a seven-fight win streak with four wins coming by way of knockout. In his last outing, Ponzinibbio rendered Neil Magny unconscious with his punching power. Now, he has his eyes focused on the welterweight division’s elite.
For the past several months, Ponzinibbio has been calling out former UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos. Unfortunately, those challenges seem to have fallen on deaf ears. Speaking to MMA Fighting, Ponzinibbio has a new name on his tongue. It’s former 170-pound king Tyron Woodley:
“The reality is, dos Anjos said in the media that he wanted this fight, but he doesn’t,” Ponzinibbis said. “He doesn’t want this fight. He never asked for it in the U.S., never made any noise to make it happen. He asked for it in Brazil so he wouldn’t look like a p****, but the truth is he doesn’t want to fight me.
“I need to fight, man. This is one of the best moments of my career, I’m ready to become world champion and I don’t want to stay inactive. Since dos Anjos really doesn’t want to fight me, I think Tyron Woodley is a great fight. I’ve showed time and time again I’m ready to become champion.”
This fight makes perfect sense for both men at this point in their careers. Ponzinibbio is looking to get a big win that will undoubtably name him the next contender for the 170-pound strap. Who better than the recently dethroned welterweight king? As for Woodley, he would like to get a rematch with Kamaru Usman for the title.
Usman will likely be facing Colby Covington in his next outing, but a win over a rising contender in Ponzinibbio should all but guarantee Woodley a second run at “The Nigerian Nightmare.”

Before one of the most iconic knockouts in UFC history at UFC 239, Jorge Masvidal was already talking trash to Ben Askren. In fact, the following article was published before Masvidal and Askren were even booked to fight one another. As alluded to, we know how this story ends. But here is a walk back to one of the first chapters of how the Masvidal/Askren feud began.
The following article was published on this day three years ago. It is presented to you in its original, unaltered form, courtesy of The MMA News Archives.
On This Day Three Years Ago…
[ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED MARCH 13, 2019, 4:30 PM]
Jorge Masvidal sent a harsh message to Ben Askren following Askren’s controversial victory at UFC 235.
Jorge Masvidal will be headlining UFC London in three days when he takes on Darren Till from the 02 Arena in London, England. Ben Askren is already on record in saying he would like the winner of that bout after picking up a victory over Robbie Lawler at UFC 235, but Jorge Masvidal feels that Askren’s fleet of foot and fleet of mouth after the controversial victory calls into question Askren’s manhood, confidence, and respect:
“He’s a little groupie, man,” Masvidal told MMAjunkie of Askren. “He’s calling my name. Who are you? Herb Dean gifted you a win, and you’re calling people out? Give Robbie Lawler the respect you owe.
“As a man, as a fighter, having pride in what I do, I choke somebody out, or I think choke them out, but when I see the replay and see the guy put the thumbs up, in my head, I would say, ‘Man, I didn’t choke this guy out,’” Masvidal said. “And as a man, having pride, I would say, ‘Let’s do it again,’ especially after he (expletive) decapitated me on the slam, busted up my face. ‘Let’s do it again,’ because I definitely didn’t choke you out. Because I’ve never seen nobody go to sleep like this. That’s the first.
“But that’s how much of a weasel and coward he is. No, no, I’m gone already. I wouldn’t dare repeat that route again. That just shows you his character. He’s a (expletive).”
Robbie Lawler and Dana White have both called for a rematch of the Askren/Lawler bout, while Askren has been quite clear about where he stands as well, a stance that has generated repulsion and contempt from the man who may end up being Ben Askren’s next opponent, Jorge “Gamebred” Masvidal.
Do you agree with Jorge Masvidal’s harsh assessment of Ben Askren’s character?
