Couture Signs 4-Fight Deal w/ UFC, Fighting Sylvia

Couture Signs 4-Fight Deal w/ UFC, Fighting Sylvia

Randy Couture appeared on "Inside the UFC" on Spike TV this past Thursday night and dropped his bombshell announcement.

And his announcement was this. He'll be returning to the octagon - to fight, at the age of 43 he'll be returning to his old stomping grounds of the Heavyweight division to challenge the champion Tim Sylvia.

That's right, coming from the 205 lb. weight class when he retired, Couture will take on the 6'8'' 265 lb. Heavyweight champion in his first fight back at UFC 68 "The Uprising" in Ohio for his title belt.

Randy Couture went on to announce that he signed a four-fight, two-year contract that will see him competing in the eight-sided cage until he is 45 years old.

He's a former two-time Heavyweight champion, two-time Light Heavyweight champion and UFC Hall of Famer. Will he be able to add another amazing accolade to his already astonishing career? We'll find out March 3, 2007 live on pay-per view when UFC 68 "The Uprising" hits the Nationwide Arena in Ohio.

No Way!

This is awesome.

Sylvia is going to get beat down.


I'm a good old rebel,
Now thats just what I am,
And for this Yankee nation,
I do not give a damn.
I'm glad we fought against her,
I only wish we'd won.
I ain't asking any pardon for anything we've done.

This is indeed some big news. I look forward to seeing him fight again. Fair play to him if he thinks he can fight for another 2 years, that's pretty awesome.

I'm kind of worried. I hope this doesn't end up to be another comeback like Shamrock tried to do .

Good news, but I hate when people retire and then come back. Once you retire, that should be it.
