Is BJ Penn back? That is the question UFC betting fans have been asking, and they will find out the answer this Saturday, February 26, as Penn takes on Jon Fitch in Australia at UFC 127. Penn is currently listed as the +160 favorite to win the fight. Penn is coming off of a lightning-fast win against Matt Hamill.

But a 35-second win against Hamill won’t mean much when Penn faces off against Fitch, who is a much stronger opponent. In fact, Fitch may be the superior fighter in the matchup, and the odds could begin to swing the other way by the time Saturday night rolls around. Fitch has fought against Paulo Thiago and Thiago Alves, winning a solid half of his last four bouts.
