"I have just been hanging out this last couple of days. But I am going to stick to what I said about being as active as I can. So that's it, I am going to try to contact the UFC, get a fight as soon as possible. Luckily I didn't get injured so I got no injuries. I can still build off what I built in the last camp. I didn't go out, I didn't party or anything so that is it."

-Former Lightweight Champion B.J. Penn, in a message to fans at BJPenn.com, says he wants to get right back to action.

Penick's Analysis: That's great that he's got a desire to get back in there right away, but I don't know how he can "build" off of a camp that wrought that performance against Edgar. He needs to get his camp in order, get himself in order, and figure out if he truly wants to fight at a high level or if he just wants to sound like he wants to fight at a high level. I hope he comes back strong, because a strong, focused and vicious B.J. Penn is still one of the most exciting fighters to watch.
