Jordan Mein coming out of retirement, hoping for UFC fight in the fall

One of the most exciting fighters in the welterweight division is back.

Jordan Mein is coming out of retirement, his father and coach Lee confirmed Tuesday with MMA Fighting's Ariel Helwani. MMA legend Bas Rutten mentioned the comeback on a recent episode of the Joe Rogan Experience podcast.

Mein (29-10) is hoping to fight again in the UFC as early as next month, Lee said. The all-action fighter from Canada hung up the gloves at just 25 years old in August 2015.

"I am happy he is enjoying training and wants to fight again," his father said.
