Rick Hawn goes out on top, retires from MMA as Titan FC lightweight champion

Current Titan FC lightweight champion, Rick Hawn, has decided his time in mixed martial arts (MMA) has come to end.

During an appearance on The MMA Hour, Hawn -- who spent the majority of his career competing for Bellator MMA -- broke the news and revealed that at 39 years of age (and on a three-fight win streak), now was the perfect time to hang up his gloves for good.

His words:

"After giving it a lot of thought, I had the best fight of my career a few weeks ago winning the lightweight title for Titan FC; and it's been a long road.
