UFC Hall of Famer BJ Penn Caught Fighting Bouncer on Video Outside Strip Club

Former two-weight UFC champion BJ Penn was filmed fighting a bouncer outside of a Honolulu strip club on Monday.

The footage of the two men grappling was released by TMZ Sports (warning, NSFW):

Penn can be seen pinning the bouncer to the ground with his forearm while spectators called on him to stop.

One man tried to intervene and can be seen punching Penn in the head, but he is shoved away by a man accompanying the former UFC lightweight and welterweight champion.

The owner of Club Femme Nu told TMZ the 40-year-old was "very drunk" and was being escorted off the premises at around midnight.
