Ronda Rousey: Cat Zingano "an extremely dangerous opponent"
BJPENN.COM News - January 7, 2015
Ronda Rousey discusses her upcoming bout against Cat Zingano and more on UFC Tonight. “Cat Zingano is an extremely unique fighter, not only is she undefeated, but she’s shown an amazing ability to deal with a lot of adversity. There’s been a lot of times in her fights where she’s been down but she’s never been out. There’s been times when she’s close to losing, but there’s never been a time when she didn’t come back. That makes her an extremely dangerous opponent. I have to entirely put her away to the very end. She’s the most risky opponent I’ve ever had.”

White: Jones Positive Test A Great Thing, Champ Could Return Better
BJPENN.COM News - January 7, 2015
“I was shocked, obviously, and this is one of those situations where it’s so different than if a guy gets busted for performance-enhancing drugs. You worry about the person first, you know? You forget about the fighting and the work side of it. You worry about the person, Jon Jones as a person. He got checked into rehab, they’re going to evaluate him and then we’ll go from there.”
"Semtex": 'Too many influences for young champ Jones'
BJPENN.COM News - January 7, 2015
“Obviously he’s put himself in a position, first, as a champion you leave yourself open to these kinds of pitfalls. He was a champion at such a young age and he’s got a lot of people around him and a lot of his fights are in Las Vegas; a lot of influence (there). I don’t think he was at the stage to be mentally strong enough to deal with the pressures that he was having and I think it just spiraled out of control for him. He’s a great guy and he’s got great character. Look at what he’s done for the sport of MMA and look at what he’s done for himself as an athlete and for his family. Everybody in life has something to overcome whether its mentally of physically. A lot of athletes, they have money and then they lose money and then there is this drug thing which is frequent in sports. He’s gonna get over it, man, he is a champion.” In a new statement to BJPENN.COM friends WhoaTV top MMA welterweight Paul “Semtex” Daley discussed the recent drug test of Jon Jones.

BJPENN.COM News - January 7, 2015
“The first priority is that Jon and his family, but specifically Jon, get the help he needs and I know that that is the UFC’s No. 1 priority. I’m glad to see that he’s already checked into a treatment facility. He’s got three beautiful daughters and a fiancee, Jessie, who I’ve had the privilege to meet, and I’m glad to hear that news immediately following this breaking news that’s so unfortunate.”
