“I’m going to tell you the truth: I always train. I started training when I was 7 years old. I’ve never stopped. Training is part of my life, so it doesn’t mean anything. It doesn’t mean I’m going to be back or not.

"Uncle Creepy" - 'We're twice the fighters the women are'
BJPENN.COM News - October 29, 2014
“The women get a lot more exposure than we do, and let’s be honest, we’re twice the fighters they are. No one wants to hear what I have to say anyways. But it’s true. It’s BS because they don’t push us like they should, and like you said, we are the two top guys going for the number-one contender fight. You’d think they would promote it more. Obviously Shogun is going to headline the card. Shogun is Shogun, everyone adores him, he’s huge, he’s an ex-champ. But it’s like we’re the stepchild no one cares about.” During a recent sting on “The MMA Hour”, UFC flyweight Ian McCall discussed the UFC’s push for females over his weight class.

"Conor McGregor Don't Want None"
BJPENN.COM News - October 29, 2014
“I’ve really given it some considerable thought of dropping to 145 just to fight him. That’s how much I would love to fight this guy, five rounds. I’ll fight him Ireland. I’ll fight him in freakin’ anywhere. I’ll fight him in Mexico, maybe on that next Mexico card. I don’t care. He says he wants to do it, but that’s just talk. He don’t want to do it. I’m telling you, he knows the cards he’s pulling. He threw that card out there just to get people riled up and get people excited on something. He knew the UFC wasn’t going to let him. He don’t want that fight.”
Tito Ortiz Calling For Mental Healthcare For Retired MMA Vets
BJPENN.COM News - October 29, 2014
“Us fighters put our lives on the line to entertain the fans that watch. Look at Jason ‘Mayhem’ Miller, War Machine. I’m not defending anything they did. Everything they did was wrong in their own right, but a lot of these fighters take a lot of head trauma, head damage, as you see in professional football. Maybe UFC and Bellator should take care of the fighters when their careers are done, as the NFL takes care of their players. Because they’re making so much money off us. It’s blood money. Going back to Mayhem, I think helping a guy like him is very needed.”

Eddie Alvarez: 'Losing to Cerrone pissed me off a lot'
BJPENN.COM News - October 29, 2014
“It was bad (dealing with loss). I’ve been fighting for a long time and I thought I knew how to deal with losing a lot better than how I dealt with it. For me, it’s always good to lose every once in a while. I don’t really care about winning, as long as I don’t lose. It’s good to get that feeling again, to get that fire, to get excited again to get back in there again and compete. It pissed me off a lot. So, I am going to have a lot going into this next one, a lot of motivation, a lot of fire for my next training camp.”
Diego Sanchez Really Wants To Beat Up Conor McGregor
BJPENN.COM News - October 29, 2014
“For me, if there is one fight I could have, it’s Conor McGregor. Ill go fight him in Ireland. He wants to fight in a football stadium? I’ll fight him in a football stadium. When he jumped into the spot, he started barking up the wrong dog’s alley. I’m one of the guys who laid the bricks for this great career that he is having. I was one of the ones that created the expansion for the sport. I helped build the foundation on this big building, and the guy is just disrespectful. He doesn’t respect that, and he doesn’t respect any of the other fighters in his division that have paid dues. For me, being confident, that’s cool. He is a great mixed martial artist. I study the guy. He is very intelligent, he has a smart mind for the fight and he knows how to study fighters. He’s athletic, strong and he hits hard; a good fighter. But there is a respect factor. You got to have respect. From the beginning, that bothered me. No one stood up to him, so I stood up to him. I just told him not to talk crap about the guys that paid their dues, so he fires back at me that I’m fat and pathetic, I’l beat you in one round. So, I’m like, what’s up then, bro? Look, this guy is really good, he has a good hype train, done some awesome things in his four fights in UFC and now he’s looking for a title shot. This guy could probably beat 95-percent of the fighters in his division. The ones that will give him a tough fight are Cub, Frankie, and Aldo. Mendes and Bermudez, too. He’s a big guy and hits hard at 145. He can beat 95-percent of those guys, but he can’t beat me, I know that in my heart. Styles make fights and I am 100-percent confident that I will finish this guy within five rounds, make him give up. But the thing is, I like this guy. He gets under my skin in a positive, motivating way. I see how he evolves, his kicks and how he works hard and the way he likes to believe in himself. It has sparked this motivation and inspiration inside of myself. That’s why I fight, the passion.”
"NOT THE GOAT"
BJPENN.COM News - October 29, 2014
“What I do think is this, had he never gotten injured, he’d be the greatest heavyweight of all time right now; because of what the guy can do. What I do believe, is that it will take longer for people to recognize him as the greatest, you know, because of the injuries. Even if he never gets injured going forward, you know depending on him, he has a good six, seven or maybe even 10 years ahead of fighting, if that is what he chooses to do. So, he is still going to hit that goal of the greatest of all time, but obviously we can’t hit him with that label right now. Not yet. He needs more fights I think. But he will get there, it is just going to take a little longer.” In a recent interview with, The MMA Hour, Cain Velasquez head coach, Javier Mendez discussed the legacy currently left by the UFC heavyweight champ.
Bisping To Rockhold: "I'll see you in Australia, you as*hole"
BJPENN.COM News - October 28, 2014
“Allow me to shed some light on the situation, because Luke, I’m not sure he’s aware that it’s a f**king conference call so he’s supposed to talk and try to be a little bit eloquent and get your side of the story over. Luke, I don’t know you, I don’t care for you. We haven’t shared a single proper conversation, so you’re basing your facts, or what you presume as facts, on absolutely nothing, on fresh air. We’ve had one conversation of the sparring match in question that everybody talks about. You don’t know me, you don’t know me as a person, so kiss my fucking ass, you lanky piece of shit. I’ll see you in Australia, you asshole. I’m going to put it all to bed then.”
