BJ Penn vs Jens Pulver II at TUF 5
|
It has taken over five
years, but on Saturday, June 23 at 9:00pm BJ Penn finally
gets his rematch. The Ultimate Fighter 5 coaches and
former UFC champions, Penn (10-3-1) and Jens Pulver
(21-6-1) step back into the Octagon together for a rematch
nearly a half a decade in the making at The Pearl at the
Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, NV. |

When former UFC Lightweight Champion Jens
Pulver defeated the seemingly invincible BJ Penn in 2002, at
UFC 35, he shocked the world and proved that when it comes to
the Octagon, nothing is impossible. Since then, Penn has
plotted his revenge and BJ Penn has been dying for this
rematch and he claims that Pulver has been ducking him all
this time. It sounds like BJ is most bitter from the defeat.
But on Saturday, June 23rd, these two 155-pound pioneers - who
matched wits for six weeks as coaches on The Ultimate Fighter
Season 5 - square off in a rematch five years in the making
and finally get the chance to settle their score with their
fists when they battle in the main event on The Ultimate
Fighting Championship organization and Spike TVs The Ultimate
Fighter 5 Season finale live from The Pearl at The Palms in
Las Vegas.
