Morning Report: Tim Kennedy says his fight with Rashad Evans at UFC 205 will be 'a wash' financially

Tim Kennedy is ready to be back in the octagon, but it might be a one time thing.

Kennedy has been out of action since September of 2014, in large part because he was focused on other pursuits outside of the cage. Though he made himself available for special circumstances like fighting Dan Henderson on short notice, Kennedy has maintained that he makes far more money outside the cage than he does inside, so he he only wanted to come back for something special. A bout with former UFC light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans in the UFC's Madison Square Garden debut satisfied that requirement and Kennedy and Evans are set to fight on the FS1 prelims of that historic card.
