BJ “The Prodigy” Penn has recently said that he was looking to get back in fighting shape and see how he feels in training, and possibly get another fight in the Octagon.

Penn spoke with fellow UFC Hall of Fame legend Frank Trigg and mentioned that he would like to take every advantage from all aspects of training to integrate into his game plan if he does in fact make a return. From high elevation training to any new revolutionary training regiment, Penn wants to be as best prepared for a return fight in the UFC.

It looks like “The Prodigy” may be taking a step above sea level as he recently posted a photo with infamous MMA coach Greg Jackson, half of the coaching duo that makes up the JacksonWink Academy. The Greg Jackson and Mike Winklejohn duo have coached some of the greatest champions in the sport including current women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm, former champions Jon Jones, Georges St-Pierre as well as former interim champion Carlos Condit.

Penn captioned his post, “We coming !! @ufc @danawhiteufc”
