Kenny's such a great guy for the sport.

He’s humble, funny, intelligent, and very talented – one of the first guys I knew in the UFC. I’m torn between who to root for at 101. I want Penn to be a terror again, but he pissed off so many people after the GSP fight, part of me wants him to kneel before a new belt holder.

I hope Diabate gets in the UFC – he would have beaten Shogun under unified rules (he won the standup – stomps are what finished him)

I genuinely like Florian

but if he thinks he is going to go in there and beat Penn in Jiu Jitsu and “be technically better” than him……he’s mistaken.

Florian interviewer

Man…that guy SUCKS. He’s clearly reading cue cards, and still manages to sound artificial and robotic. Horrrrrr-ific.

I get the feeling he does the interview and then afterwards re-tapes him reading the questions separately. Pretty standard TV interview process.
