MMA: Penn forecasts victory – and many more
BJ Penn isn’t just supremely confident of pulling off a win Sunday against Dennis Siver. The once-retired UFC Hall of Famer sounds like he’s confident of winning well into the future.
Penn and Siver both weighed in at 146 pounds Saturday ahead of their featherweight bout to start the main card (3 p.m. HST) of UFC 112 in Oklahoma City. The main event features Kevin Lee vs. Michael Chiesa.
“Two old warriors, let’s have some fun,” Penn told BJPenn Radio, predicting Siver, a fellow 38-year-old, would go down in the first or second round.
“I’m not here to lose. Everybody get on the train, because we’re going to get the belt.”
