BJ wants Diego sooner rather than later

[tn94z]

TweetI think he should fight him soon too!

“It’s gonna happen, hopefully within the next two, two-and-a-half months. I’m 30 now and I’m hoping to get a couple of more fights in. I know they say that in MMA, people peak later, but who knows? My whole career, fighting from age 20 to 30, I’ve gotten into real good shape and gotten out of shape and started getting back into shape again. I don’t want to do that anymore. Here I am. I’m in shape. I want to have fun for a couple of days, take some time off, eat some good food, and then I want to get right back into all that stuff…. [Diego is] really good; he’s really explosive. He’s shown that he has some knockout power and he’s a very good grappler. He’s very hungry; he’s shown that he wants to be a champion someday. This is an important fight…. I’d like to get a fight with St. Pierre again, but now that Diego Sanchez is next, once we get the word from Dana White, that’s what we’re gonna be thinkin’ about.”

– UFC Lightweight Champion BJ Penn talks to the Hawaii Tribune Herald about his fight future, including his next title defense against Diego Sanchez. No date for the 155-pound title fight had been announced; however, if the Hawaiian had his druthers he’d like it to happen before 2009 expires. He’s fresh of a submission win over former number one division contender, Kenny Florian, at UFC 101: “Declaration” on Aug. 8. It was his first title defense in more than one year. Despite a fight against Georges St. Pierre earlier this year at 170 pounds, it’s clear that “The Prodigy” doesn’t want to wait that long again to put his belt on the line. The blockbuster year-end pay-per-view (PPV) show perhaps?

Tweetbj has always been in shape at 155.thats why he's 8-1 at that weight. between 2005-2006 was when bj didnt really care about weight and fighting this is who he fought.And i'll still say he should of won that first fight against gsp. but look at who's he fought and you want to say he's not the prodigy

TweetBJ Penn would beat Brock Lesner and Anderson Siva back-to-back then jump out of a 6' pool cause his new found cardio is the best in the biz making Prefontaine look like an asthmatic who smokes 2 packs a day.

Not only would he jump out of a 6' pool, he would pull off a back flip as well!
