A DAY WITH KATTY

UFC Lightweight Champion BJ Penn was interviewed by Mark Gilbert of The Sun regarding Rampage Jackson's retirement in UFC.

BJ Penn was not against Rampage's decision in shifting to movie career. Now that Rampage accepted the role of BA Baracus in A-Team movie he knows that someday Rampage will be back in the Octagon. He understand that one of the most toughest job is being a fighter.
"Fighting wears on you, especially in this sport," he said. He also added that a fighter like them, sometimes needs a break. He thinks that Rampage is just little bit exhausted right now on his UFC career that's why he needs to shift to relaxing, fun, and enjoying world of Hollywood.

BJ Penn knows that UFC President Dana White was upset right now on Rampage's decision  but he thinks that Dana is a forgiving guy and will somehow open his door again once Rampage get back to UFC. There are many fighters out there who wants to be in Rampage's place so Penn tipped him to return to the UFC in the future.

We know that Rampage is one of the main fighters in the UFC. Like what Penn said, we also thinks that Rampage just wants to experience the life of being an actor. This is a big break for him and for now this is his main interest. This is what he likes right now and we can't forced him to stay in the ring if he does not feel being there. But we think that he'll find his way back to UFC. He is a fighter and he has a blood of a fighter rushing to his veins. He'll definitely missed his MMA career someday. To Rampage, we will miss you in the UFC ring but we'll support you on your A-Team movie.
