Title: Penn-Stevenson Set For UFC Lightweight Interim Title
Post by: Bluto on November 02, 2007, 04:53:03 PM

Sean Sherk is going to remain the UFC's lightweight champion, but B.J. Penn and Joe Stevenson will fight for a lightweight belt at UFC 80 in January in Newcastle, England, UFC president Dana White said Friday.

White said he's not going to strip Sherk of his lightweight championship because he is fed up with the California Athletic Commission's handling of Sherk's steroids case.

I think penn'll wind up taking joe to school eventually, but this fight could have its moments up until the time that P.J. gas's joe out

I wouldn't count Joe out so quickly.  Penn is no doubt on another league, but he is also very inconsistent.  If he does not take the fight seriously, he could gas out and lose a decision, or worse yet get G&P into a sub.
