INGLEWOOD, Calif. –  Ryan Hall views B.J. Penn as a true legend of MMA, so the fact he became the first to submit the UFC Hall of Famer on Saturday at UFC 232 serves as a very meaningful accomplishment. Hall (7-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) said he’s idolized Penn (19-13-2 MMA, 12-12-2 UFC) for many years, so when the matchup was offered to him, he jumped on it right away. He handed “The Prodigy” a sixth consecutive loss when he earned a first-round submission victory in the lightweight bout, which took place at The Forum in Inglewood, Calif. The majority of the past decade has not provided kind results to Penn inside the octagon.
