BJ “The Prodigy” Penn has been on a three fight losing streak, so maybe he was looking to get back in the win column.
Penn had been boozing at a bar in Maui with a friend when he allegedly began to get aggressive with other bar patrons … and Penn’s buddy tried to step in between and calm the fighter down.
But according to HawaiiNewsNow.com, Penn turned on his pal — punching him in the face and kneeing him in the forehead.
Penn’s friend was so badly injured, he was reportedly taken to a nearby hospital where he was treated for a fractured left eye socket.
The police arrested Penn at a nearby hotel after he fled the scene.
Can’t say I am surprised by the result in that one. Why anyone would pick a fight with a UFC fighter is beyond me.
