Lost a super close fight to Khamzat in 2023, no fights in 2024, no fights scheduled yet in 2025.

37 years old, he sitting waiting for a replacement fill in title shot or did he quietly retire and I missed it? Injured?

He has a podcast I don't listen to so I'm assuming his future has come up at some point on it.
 
Heard he started surf lesson this week

All he has to do is wait and he'll get a TS eventually <lol>Division is funny like that :p
 
Probably hoping to get a title shot without having to beat anyone
 
skiing in Colorado?
 
Is short term memory common on here? Usman was offered to fight Shavkat in December but passsed it up.
 
I'd hope to see him fight soon, personally he is my favorite WW to watch post GSP.
 
Waiting for the right opportunity to come along and taking a break after a long career at the top. Honestly probably one of the smartest things you can do. You are at the end of your career, on a losing skid and the possibility of being finished again is amplified even more. Don't take the Chris Weidman route my boy
 
Seems like he's embraced the podcast life.

Kinda wack if you ask me. Never found his commentary to be that insightful.

Enjoy watching him fight much more. Hope he comes back against some top talent.
 
Just saying he'll be back when he's ready, without giving timeline, disclosing his injury, and turning down every opponent while multiple mentions of when he was champ randomly find their way into conversations about who he should fight next.
