With Pettis Booked, Thomson Eyes Fight With Grant For Contender Slot
BJPENN.COM News - July 23, 2013
“I’m begging and pleading for it. I’ve made it very clear that whoever they decide they want me to fight, that’s going to make it the fastest way to the title, that’s who I’ll fight. T.J. would be great. I mean obviously they offered him the title shot and things didn’t work out, he got injured, and I’m not going to be ready anyway until probably the end of September or early October, as far as being able to train hard and go at it, and T.J. said he’d be ready in November, so I think it’s perfect. I’m not asking for any favors, I want to fight the toughest and best guys that are going to get me to the title the fastest. That’s it … that’s all I want.”
Bendo Coach Calls 'Showtime Kick" A Fluke
BJPENN.COM News - July 23, 2013
“It was a fluke. It’s like getting caught with a punch. All the best fighters have lost, you know what I mean? How many times has Anderson Silva seen the Ryo Chonan heel hook? How many times is he going to see Chris Weidman catching him with that hook? If you’re great, if you compete with the best people in the sport, you are going to have an unfortunate moment at some point. And they’re going to replay it and talk about it, but it’s just another moment. It’s one speck of time. There was 24 minutes and 59 seconds of that fight that still went on. “The thing that I remember about the ‘Showtime Kick’ or whatever you want to call it, is that Ben got up and was on a single leg to finish the fight,” he continued. “He was going to get that single. He was getting that takedown. It there’s 15 more seconds, Anthony’s on his back.”

Hopefully I can make GSP exciting. That’s my gameplan.”
Cormier Excited About Roy Nelson Booking
BJPENN.COM News - July 23, 2013
“I’m pretty excited about it. It’s the fight that we’ve wanted for a little bit And Roy’s wanted. I think it’s going to be a great fight. He’s a guy that brings the fight every time. He’s an exciting fighter. I’m happy to be in there with him. I’ve said multiple times that I don’t hold the Stipe Miocic fight against him, being as he took the fight on such short notice. I kind of give him a mulligan. So, in my eyes he’s still on that win streak he was on. He’s a very dangerous guy.
