Your thoughts on Jens Pulver returning
Who do you think he'll fight when he returns? Will he do any good? Your thoughts and why.
I've seen Jens Pulver, hes undefeated in the UFC, a long time lightweight champion, just left the business. He's also beaten BJ Penn before so I don't see guys like Sean Sherk or Kenny Florian beating him for the lightweight title. When will he fight though and against who? Will we see a match against Sherk for the lightweight title? A rematch against Penn? I've heard some rumors that at UFC 64 in October he is going to have a rematch against Penn because it sounds like they are both fighting in the same PPV but no opponents named yet maybe they are fighting each other.

Im really looking forward to seeing Pulvers return to the UFC , he's going to make for a lot of interesting fights in the LW division , I definately see him winning the title again , but i also see Sherk pounding the hell out of him whenever they meet.
Edwards vs Pulver would be an amazing fight

All he does is make a strong weight class even stronger.
I don't see him beating a guy like Sherk just because of peer strength that sherk has.
But he's fighting in UFC 63 when matt hughes fights.
I think he'll probably fight someone like Sam Stout personally, just because they're both good stand up fighters.

Don't forget Joe Stevenson and Spencer Fischer which are also good LW fighters.
I don't think we'll see BJ Penn going to LW any time soon personally, unless they get him to fight Pulver. I think he wants the Welterweight belt first.
