Title: Randy Couture Says He Is OK Not Fighting...
Post by: MindSpin on June 05, 2008, 01:09:21 PM
The following are quotes from an article on Sportsnet.ca:

"I'm confident I'll fight again. I'm also OK with the idea that it may not happen," Couture said Saturday at the opening of his seventh Xtreme Couture gym. "I may get a bad (court) ruling and I can't really see myself at this point going back and fighting two more times for the UFC if that's what the state says I have to do. So there's the potential I could be done fighting and I'm OK with that too."

"I expect things will go well, that in a right to work the state will rule that I have the right to go and work in my chosen profession after the term of the contract and some time this fall hopefully, with the help of Mark Cuban and maybe potentially Affliction ... that they'll find a way to make the Fedor fight happen."

"I'm in a unique position in my life and my career that I've kind of been there and done that as far as the fighting goes," Couture told The Canadian Press. "I still love to fight, I'm physically capable of doing it, so having the passion I have for it, I want to do it. But if doesn't work out that way that's OK too."

that statement has all the ear markings of someone who's looking to cash out with one more big fight before he calls it quits which tells me if he ever does sign to fight fedor he'll probably tank BIG TIME....

No way. Captain America wouldn't do that, especially when he could end his career beating the mighty Fedor.

I don't know.  It is just something happening here this weekend I think.  I have seen several commercials on it.
