This is why B.J. Penn will return with motivation and that look in his eye.

I think now that the UFC has random 3rd party testing. A fighter like Penn, who always showed up with a natural body. Used skill instead of brute force. Had cardio that was not the result of IV abuse. This is the future. The future of the UFC is here. It is... the past.

Hope they find a replacement fighter soon. I was looking forward to a good BJ @ UFC 199.

I too was looking forward to this. Looking back at his record, he pretty much only lost to Frankie and then the best WWs of the time... I wish he stayed at lightweight after losing the belt, hopefully he has something fun left in him

Didnt Chuck always lose when he had "that look in his eye"...

 

[Striderx5]

Bought 199 tickets just to see BJ fight again in person. I hope they pick a good opponent for him. W/L/D BJ Penn no ka oi.

Chuck had that look in his eye when he was allegedly on cocaine.

Chuck had that look in his eye when he was allegedly on cocaine.

Fucking christ, let it go. No one here knows if Penn was on anything for all his fights. Stupid post.

 

[HHJ]

return where? the airport?

 

[Readybodisready]

I will take your eye-test as the end all be all for all fighters when it comes to tests. Whoever the hell you are.

BJ is kinda like the Roberto Duran of mma, great fighter who constantly would fight above ideal weight sometimes to his detriment.

The testing prevents him from doing coke though.... So who knows how the testing will affect him haha

Penn is in the camp of people I wouldn't be surprised to see test positive in random testing. He has always been said to be lazy, so he could be looking for shortcuts. He is also an aging athlete who has decided he can't stay retired.

idk, I like Penn but his losses may have more to do with gameplanning, larger opponents at 170 and discipline/cardio than his opponents having been on PEDs.

BJ's losses were just to more superior fighters (GSP, Rory MacD) or athletes (Diaz, Edgar). He should handily maul Siver. A follow-up matchup with Chad Mendes would be a good test for BJ in the present era (a top guy but beatable).

 

[sprucelees]

hopefully not for another title run

What? You just managed to make this entire thread even dumber than it was. Well done.

 

[bjj4everyone]

It's still real to me dammit!

A motivated, country breakfast, full camp, dad bod, K-1, Anderson Silva money, pre Serra loss, Dulce diet, prime BJ Penn with that look in his eye is unbeatable.
