No kidding, can't blame him for wanting to retire. I know this is not going to happen and wouldn't make that much sense really for the UFC but it'd be nice to give him one more title shot then he can call it a career or even better retire a champion because on any given day I think Couture could still beat anyone in the 205 division.
i think 1 more big fight for the legend and then he should be let to decide, he's done a lot for the sport and i think he deserves a great as one of the greatest characters in MMA history
Could you imagine an arena packed with old people to see the fights? The vendors would be handing out prunes and glasses of weak tea. That would be awesome !!! Make it happen Dana !!!

Randy has done a lot for the sport and no one would blame him for retiring. At 47 years old it's hard to keep up the tough training regimens.

Randy vs Cro Cop !
i think randy can beat him and the fight could be a main event
let Randy go out with a bang!!
Randy is a Legend, he hasn't much more to prove really
even still competing at that level at his age is an accomplishment in itself he's the most decorated UFC champion in history
i would still love to see him fight again though, I would respect his choice if he does decide to retire though........
Come on Randy one more title run :)
look at dan severn. hes 51 and hes still fighting. randys fighting top 10 guys and is successful
top 10 guys like toney!!!!!! :D
I meant like Vera

How much fights he needs isnt that enought that he kicked young world brazilian champion ass?
Imagine a good-bye bout with Fedor....
you may say I'm dreamer, but I'm not the only one... :)
Couture was due to fight fedor, but Dana White vetoed it.
I think its the perfect time to retire.
He has proved everything that he is
He help make this sport shine for years
A 5time champ, what a great career
He is getting really old
And he came off a win proving that boxing is lame and MMA is king.
farewell!
Why not open a division based on age - Masters Division 50+? Ok bad idea, but it would be cool to see Couture reigning champion at 60.
Or a new organization. How about the UOFC? The Ultimate Old Fart Championship !!!
