Penn vs. Sanchez to headline UFC 105
By Jeremy Botter August 21, 2009 Post a comment | Email the author
A source within the UFC has confirmed to Inside Fights that BJ Penn will likely defend his lightweight title against Diego Sanchez in the main event of UFC 105.

Penn has claimed that he would never fight in the United Kingdom again after earning what he thought was an unacceptable purse for his fight against Joe Stevenson. The internal belief is that the free television show will likely pull in millions of viewers, and that kind of viewer base can help turn Penn and Sanchez into even bigger stars, which will translate into bigger pay per view buyrates for both fighters down the road.

Still can't believe that Nightmare is next in line, but this should be a decent fight none the less. I can't really see Penn losing this one.

I just asked Penn on Twitter and he responded immediately saying. "yup we will see what happens"

So it sounds like its been offered but not signed.

Diego was pretty much declared the next in line before Penn/Florian happened. So while it might not technically be on paper yet, it's definitely in the works.

he really meant sooner rather than later, didn't he. this will be an epic fight, with a bit of p4p implication.
