Alan Jouban aiming for future in UFC broadcast booth

Alan Jouban is planning his next career move in mixed martial arts and it may involve him leaving the gloves behind in exchange for a headset.

The longtime UFC welterweight recently spoke with Farah Hannoun of MMA Junkie about shifting his focus from fighting to commentating after nearly seven years with the promotion. Jouban has previously served as an analyst for a few UFC events, including UFC Fight Night: Saint Preux vs. Okami and UFC Fight Night: Felder vs. Dos Anjos.

While he certainly has experience as an analyst, Jouban now hopes to make more frequent appearances in the coveted role of color commentator for the UFC, if the opportunity were to arise one day.
