BJ Penn will be fighting Nick Diaz in the main event match of UFC 137 on October 29, 2011 at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. It will be televised live on Pay-Per-View (PPV). Penn is a former Welterweight Champion and is making his third welterweight fight since returning to the weight class from the lightweight division at UFC 123. His last fight was against Jon Fitch at UFC 127 which resulted in a draw (majority). There has been many changes to the fight card as Penn was originally set to face Carlos Condit as a co-main event with Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre to face Diaz. Penn and GSP swapped opponents and just recently GSP had to withdraw from his fight leaving the Penn/Diaz fight as the lone main event.
