UFC vet Kyle Noke unretires, announces MMA return: ‘I have that fire again’

The veteran welterweight said in a Thursday social media post that he plans to fight again.

Noke, a former UFC fighter, explained that he lost his will to compete during his last few Octagon outings, but now that he has had nearly a year off from fighting, he has the itch to return.

“My last few fights I lost that fire, I was just in there because I didn't know anything else,” Noke wrote on Instagram. “Now that I've had time to rest and heal, time away from the grueling training sessions and constant grind, I miss it now more than ever.
