Retired UFC Hall of Famer Urijah Faber Considering Return: ‘It’s Just Really, Really Tempting’

Mixed martial arts retirements are very rarely permanent, and Urijah Faber could be just the latest example of a fighter returning to the Octagon after calling it a career.

The 39-year-old UFC Hall of Famer appeared on "Ariel Helwani’s MMA Show” on Monday and admitted that he is contemplating a return after retiring from the sport in December 2016. “The California Kid” recently became a father and is in the process of preparing for a grappling match in Polaris against Nicky Ryan on May 25.

He believes training for that match will help get him into the proper condition if the right opportunity arises.
