B.J. Penn gick i pension efter att ha blivit utslagen av Frankie Edgar vid ”UFC: TUF 19 Finale”, och då hade Penn förlorat fem av sina sju senaste matcher. B.J. har sedan sin sista match haft en hel del otalt med dietisten Mike Dolce, något som fått Penn att tänka på en retur in i oktagonen.
Detta hade B.J. att säga via ”UFC Tonight”:
You know what, I’m sick and tired of hearing about Mike Dolce. You know what Mike Dolce, I’ll put a challenge out right now. You go grab Nik Lentz, that’s your boy, bring him down to 145, I’ll run through him in one round, then I’ll find you in the back and I’ll smash you. Ok, let’s do that, let’s do that right now, I’m ready.
Mike Dolce wants to say all this stuff, I don’t train, I don’t do this and that, let’s do this, bring him down to 145. I would, I would come out of retirement for that.
I was there, he was there to work for 20 days, I paid him $1,000 a day and you know, I’m not here to talk about it again but I’m just sick and tired of hearing it.
I’d come out for the grudge match you know, we’ll see what happens after that.
Huruvida det kommer att bli någon retur in i oktagonen för Penn, återstår därmed att se. Härnäst ser vi dock Nik Lentz vid ”UFC on FOX 17”, då han tar sig an Danny Castillo den 19 december.
