In March 2006, top welterweights Georges St-Pierre and BJ Penn fought for the division’s No. 1 contender spot. St-Pierre earned a razor-thin split decision and a shot at the Ultimate Fighting Championship® welterweight title. Now the two are about to do it again. But this time, there’s much more at stake. UFC lightweight champion BJ Penn looks to become the first fighter in history to hold two UFC championships at the same time when he faces Georges St-Pierre for the UFC welterweight championship at UFC 94: ST-PIERRE VS. PENN 2.
UFC 94, the battle for the World Welterweight Championship, will take place Saturday, January 31, 2009 live from MGM Grand Garden Arena. Tickets for UFC 94: ST-PIERRE VS. PENN 2 will go on sale Sunday, November 16 at 10 a.m. PT. You can also order the fight on Oceanic Time Warner Cable's Pay-Per-View service.
