A few weeks ago, the UFC legend took to social media to assert that a few members of his family were murdered and replaced by imposters. In a recent post, Penn stated that an imposter - whom he identified as Hawaii governor Josh Green - has an alternate identity as actor Erik Beach and is trying to steal his identity.

Penn shared a collage of pictures of the person allegedly trying to impersonate him, and included a voiceover in the video, stating:

"Fake BJ Penn will never replace the real BJ Penn. Erik Beach, who is Governor Josh Green, and is actually a black belt from my gym... But this guy isn't a black belt. He's a joke. I hear all those guys making trouble. But ere he is, trying to be fake BJ Penn and trying to get rid of me the same way they did to my mother, my three brothers..."

In the post, Penn also shared a screen recording of Jiu-jitsu instructor Bronson Acdal's Instagram story. The caption implied that Acdal, Green and Beach were the same person masquerading under different identities.

The caption to the post read:

"Fake Bj Penn is way too ugly. So if you ever see me looking that bad, just know already will be Japan or never look like that."

Upon closer inspection of BJ Penn's video, it was noted that some of the pictures, which he claimed were of the imposter, actually featured Rodrigo Gracie, a prominent member of the Gracie family. This raises concerns about the validity of Penn's claims.
