Nick Hein announces retirement after UFC Stockholm

Alexander Gustafsson wasn’t the only veteran hanging up the gloves on Saturday.

Lightweight Nick Hein also announced his retirement after UFC Stockholm, albeit in a more low-key fashion as he simply wrote a brief Facebook post to mark the end of his 10-year pro MMA career:

20 years of Judo. Ten years in the national team.

One decade of MMA, 5 years in the UFC.

I am ready for the next chapter.

Thanks to everyone.

I am looking for the future.
