Kevin Vallejos Jokingly Calls Out UFC Legend BJ Penn

After scoring the biggest win of his career with a Round 2 knockout of Giga Chikadze, rising contender Vallejos took to X joking, “I WANT BJ PENN NEXT.” The callout was clearly in fun, as Penn retired in 2019 and has faced ongoing legal issues, including a sixth arrest in November 2025. Meanwhile, Vallejos is now 17-1 and ranked No. 13.
