On Tuesday, Fitch used a conference call designed to push AKA’s new “Fight Factory” reality series on Nuvo TV to dog Penn, calling him a “coward.”
“Here at AKA, we’ve got fighters who come out to fight, fighters who will face anyone and don’t hide from any opponents. You’ve also got cowards out there like B.J. Penn who say they want to fight people, but then they run and hide.”
At one point in his career, Penn trained with AKA, and last month, Penn indicated he’d like to train again in San Jose.
But Fitch clearly wants no part of such talk. Ask to clarify if he considered Penn a coward, Fitch said. “Yes. He’s a coward. He wouldn’t be welcomed here.”
