Former WEC featherweight champion and MMA veteran Urijah Faber is not ready to hang up the gloves again just yet. The ‘California Kid’ signed a new UFC deal after suffering a vicious beatdown at the hands of top contender Petr Yan and is eager to call out some of bantamweight’s best athletes.

In an interview with Ag Fight, Faber revealed that the new contract will ensure that he remains with the UFC until the end of his career, but Urijah is not sure yet when he will exactly make his return.

[SuperPig]

[Robbie Hart]

Yan takes his time. Patient killer.

Yan is gonna be a problem for alot of people. I can't see a obvious path to beating him like you can with most fighters. Hopefully he batters cejudo

Terrible fight option.... It'll be two former Bros, crying in the cage, hitting each other while saying "why'd you have to be like that Bro? Why?".... You know those two will hug it out at the end, and we'll hear of a TAM reunion.

Dillashaw and Faber could headline a Bellator PPV in a few years

Dillashaw would beat him, Faber is a killer of those below the top 5 but hasn't won against elite opposition in donkey's years

I wonder how elite TJ will be without PED’s though?

I doubt there'll be much difference personally. It's a good first fight back though, shake off the rust against a low risk opponent

this dude is so full of himself, who calls this a super fight? when was last time Faber headlined a ppv or dillashaw to crack over 100k buys?
