Dana White Heaps Praise on Frankie Edgar
Frankie Edgar might as well had walked out to the Octagon last night with a Rodney Dangerfield bit playing, as despite being the UFC Lightweight Champion, it wasn’t like the guy was receiving a ton of respect heading into his rematch with BJ Penn. Of course, Penn has long been widely regarded as the world’s [...]
Now We’ve Seen it All Alert: BJ Penn and Jens Pulver Make Amends
While Chael Sonnen has been capturing much of the attention lately due to his mouth’s rather alarming ability to entertain and or enrage thousands at the same time, a certain P4P contender named Mr. BJ Penn, has also been known to do the same. As we’ve seen several times over the last few years, Penn’s never really [...]
Josh Koscheck Wants Olympic Standard Drug Testing for GSP Bout
If Georges St. Pierre fans are sick to tears of having the UFC welterweight champ tossed into the ‘who’s on the juice’ gossip mill, they may have to invest in more mouchoir en papier (that tissue for you anglophone fans), as apparently this undead horse has survived all the GSP vs. BJ Penn II drama after [...]

According to a report today from Fighters Only Magazine, the outlet has confirmed with “several key sources” that the rematch between newly crowned lightweight champion Frankie Edgar, and former champ BJ Penn, will go down August 28th at the UFC’s promotional debut in Boston.

Report: Dana White Not Endorsing BJ Penn’s New Book
Losing to Frankie Edgar by UD may not have been the best way to kick off a tour for BJ Penn’s new book “Why I Fight”, but considering the former champion’s legacy, world class abilities and gift for sometimes controversial gab, we’re thinking the recent loss won’t set sales back very much (although with a rematch [...]
Rematch with Frankie Edgar Possibly in Works According to BJ Penn
Only days removed from Frankie Edgar’s shocking upset over former lightweight champion BJ Penn the MMA world continues to debate the judge’s scoring of the bout, and judging by our own extremely unscientific research, it appears as though the majority of pundits are weighing in on the side of Penn (the 50-45 scoring for Edgar [...]
Frankie Edgar Concedes No “Big Holes” in BJ Penn’s Game
Although most people appear to be giving Frankie Edgar more of a chance against lightweight champ BJ Penn, than that which was afforded Dan Hardy before he faced GSP (betting on the sun rising almost had the same odds), clearly the talented wrestler is a huge underdog heading into Saturday’s bout. After all, Penn has [...]
Anderson Silva Says Plenty of Contenders Remain at 185
Any MMA fan surfing the net these days would be hard pressed not to stumble upon some story or discussion, regarding whether or not a UFC champ is close to ‘cleaning out the division’ (somehow when we browse the world wide web we keep stumbling upon pics of gorgeous women…). Of course with Georges St. [...]
Kenny Florian Calls Gray Maynard “Tremendous Competitor”
So, after we waxed on about how big a deal Takanori Gomi was in Japan for years, and that further, any MMA fan worth their weight in hot wings should know about “The Fireball Kid’s” resume, if last night was indeed your first time watching Gomi- you might have been thinking ‘meh’? Well, although the [...]
