I really hope this isn't what it looks like. I would hate to see him go out like that..

I do think he'll take a break for 2011, at least. I just got that feeling after I saw Edgars hand raised that BJ wouldnt fight for a good while, if at all.

A rematch with Hughes seems like a good way to send Hughes off and find out if he still has a place at Welterweight.

I hope he's done. Dude is an idiot and there's no one I hate more in MMA.

Or let him be the new Chuck and let everyone smash his head in.

I'd like to see jump on the competitive grappling seen again, especially if he reps Nova Uniao like he used to. Imagine BJ/Marcelo or BJ/Popovitch that would be insane.

[K1NG]

He's only 31. I highly doubt that was his last match. He'll likely take some time off, but we'll see him again.

He looked like he didnt even care about the fight. Wouldn't surprise me.

[CapeCrusader]

We'll see him back regardless if he takes a break or not.

Retire? Hell the guy claims he's fighting in November!

BJ does not need to retire, he needs to get with a good camp and evolve. He has history at AKA. He should back there and tighten up his training.

Agreed a new camp, maybe go back to his old roots with Nova Uniao,Pedernaires, Aldo,Leites,Paulo Thiago,Shaolin,Moura pretty decent camp

Nova makes some sense as well, but he has a good relationship with Bob Cook at AKA who used to corner him back in the day. Training with Fitch, Kos, and Swick is exactly what BJ needs to beat the Edgar's and Maynard's of the world.

I don't think Penn's problem is training. He just needs to find a camp that can motivate him for fight night.

[Nemesis21]

Nope, we will see Penn/Hughes 3 !

It was never going to happen.
