UFC legend Edson Barboza reveals MMA retirement promise to his family

UFC legend Edson Barboza has revealed the mixed martial arts retirement promise that he has made to his family.

This weekend, Edson Barboza will once again make the walk to the cage as he prepares to compete under the Ultimate Fighting Championship umbrella for the 32nd time in his career. He’s had plenty of ups and downs over the years but along the way, he has earned a reputation for being one of the most dramatic knockout artists in the history of the promotion.

Now, at the age of 39, Edson Barboza is looking to prove that he can still mix it up with the best in the lightweight division.
