Randy Couture

Randy “The Natural” Couture had one more fight in his the 3-fight contract he signed back in September 2008.  During the UFC 102 post-fight press conference, UFC president Dana White assured media and fans that Couture would continue fighting with the UFC for at least next 28 months.  The five-time UFC champion has officially renewed his contract, inking a new 6-fight deal with the UFC organization.

There are rumors of a possible move to light heavyweight but nothing has been confirmed just yet.  Couture wants to continue being a part of the UFC until he retires, but he plans to take a short break in order to decide what division he’d like to fight in for the rest of his fight contract.

From Dana White:

“(Randy Couture) will be with us for a lot more fights…[In regards to fighting as a heavyweight or a light heavyweight] Whatever he wants to do, I’m in.”
