It sounds like fans haven’t seen the last of “Suga.”
Former UFC light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans, 39, is working on making a comeback and is free to pursue bouts outside of the promotion after fighting out his contract and retiring in June of last year. MMA Fighting confirmed the news with Evans’s manager Ali Abdelaziz following an initial report by ESPN.
Evans (19-8-1) last competed at UFC 225, where he was knocked out in 53 seconds by Anthony Smith. According to Abdelaziz, that was the last fight of Evans’s most recent contract.
