BE SURE TO ALSO VISIT...
THE BJ PENN FAN CLUB!
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/babyjaypennfanclub/
BJ Penn is a MIXED MARTIAL ARTS competitor from Wainaku, Hilo, Hawai'i.
He was the first NON Brazilian, black belt to win the Brazilian jiu-jitsu World
Championships('MUNDIALS'), in Rio.
He didnt even have ONE point scored against him in that event! He had to
compete against several other expert black belts. Most of them had a LOT more
experience than he did.
Next, he was invited to compete in the Ultimate Fighting Championship(UFC),
after having only one pro fight!
He has fought in the UFC 3 times last year and has stopped every opponent in
the first round!
His 2nd opponent, Din Thomes, was TOP TEN ranked and had already beaten the UFC
champion, Jens Pulver, by submission. His 3rd opponent was a former World Shooto
Champion and #1 ranked lightweight fighter in the world, Caol Uno.
BJ knocked him out in ELEVEN SECONDS FLAT!
And, I mean OUT!
In his most recent performance he just beat the #2 Lightweight in the world,
Takanori Gomi, by rear choke in the 3rd round at Rumble On The Rock 4, in
Honolulu, Hawaii! It was only Gomi's (the former SHOOTO World Lightweight
Champion), second loss and the first time he has ever been submitted in a fight!
He has been labeled "The Phenom" and "The Prodigy"... Join us and find out why!
DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT OUR EXTENSIVE LINKS SECTION!!!
