"[Zuffa CEO] Lorenzo [Fertitta] and myself will be there with some of the biggest names on the UFC roster.

BJ Penn discusses future opponents with the Hawaii Tribune-Herald: "I definitely want to fight (St. Pierre) again," Penn acknowledged. "... What kind of fight do they want to put on in Abu Dhabi? Do they want me to fight a Frankie Edgar or a Gray Maynard? Or do they want me to fight a 'super fight' against somebody in Aloha Stadium, and do they think they can sell 40,000 tickets by putting me in against a Gray Maynard, or do they want me up against a bigger name? "I guess sooner or later it's gonna come down to me defending the belt, for sure. But it's about whatever the UFC's business model is for what they got coming up."
