“This is probably the last time you’re going to see me here,” Penn said. “I’ve got a daughter,  another daughter on the way.  I don’t want to go home looking like this.  I’m done.”

I could have sworn I saw a look on BJ’s face as he was making his walk out and into the octagon where he was going to bust out and cry. This must have been why.  BJ is one of the most beloved men in the sport he will be greatly missed.

Mirko Cro Cop may also be at retirements door as well even though he did not make an official announcement after his loss to Roy Nelson
