Anybody that said that BJ Penn’s MMA return was going to be a disaster has already been proven right. Earlier this week a former editor from BJPenn.com blew up Twitter with explosive allegations against the former UFC welterweight and lightweight champion, claiming that he used cocaine and, far worse, sexually assaulted his girlfriend.
While it’s anyone’s guess as to whether or not those claims are legitimate or not (police are investigating them now), the UFC is taking action. Though many pundits were predicting that Penn would return at UFC 197, the UFC has functionally suspended him by taking him out of their matchmaking plans.
