Urijah Faber mulling UFC comeback, was offered two fights last year

Former WEC champion and longtime UFC contender Urijah Faber is a father now, and he’s still competing at a high level. The head of Team Alpha Male faces 17-year-old grappling phenom Nicky Ryan in a grappling match at Polaris 8 in May. And he’s considering a return to the UFC.

As a guest on The MMA Show on ESPN today, he revealed his interest in a return:

“With the baby in my life, and with the rejuvenation of my body, and seeing why I stood out for so long, it’s just really, really tempting,” said Faber.
