It took lying naked and exhausted on the locker room floor at the UFC Performance Institute for Rick Glenn to decide that his days as a featherweight were over.
Of course, the Iowan went down fighting, but he still had a weigh-in to get through and a fight to fight against Kevin Aguilar to get through on November 30, 2018, yet the die was cast.
“I always told myself if I ever miss weight, I'm going up a weight class,” said Glenn, who came in at 148.5 pounds for the Aguilar fight, then lost a unanimous decision the next night.
