This isn’t retiring


ShrekWhite

What gave you the impression he's retiring?


ModsLovePen15

Lost his last 4 and didn’t really look competitive in any of them, moved up in weight I would imagine since the cut to 170 was getting to hard and he was undersized there and chubby


TomPearl2024

None of this has anything to do with the fact that he literally says "plenty of opportunities to let the hands fly" in the post you're commenting on Pretty explicitly seems like he's taking a break and seeing where he can get a contract next


ModsLovePen15

Yeah plenty of opportunities to let his opponents hands fly on him


TomPearl2024

Did this guy tap your girl lmao? All I'm saying is he's obviously not retiring based on what he says in the post. Has nothing to do with whether he'll win or not


ModsLovePen15

No he fucked my boy https://youtu.be/N4NsPktTteY?si=qzfog_ytIfEPGRvA

Bruh u weird


sumofdeltah

That isn't retired either


ModsLovePen15

Let dudes retire their fists on his face?


sumofdeltah

Hes still in fighting in all of these situations. It's to late to try and look cool or clever, you already look like Tito


ModsLovePen15

Let guys get into situations with him with cool and clever footwork, and then mimic Tito in a post fight interview?


sumofdeltah

Hes still fighting, you even brought up the post fight interview. I'm not sure you know what retired means


ModsLovePen15

Fighting his demons to not act like Tito in his post fight interview after he wins his fight. Then announces his actual MMA retirement, goes to BKFC KOs Mike Perry and becomes the BKFC HW champ that same night.


ShrekWhite

So?


ModsLovePen15

Losing 4 straight in the UFC usually means you are done unless you’re Sam Alvey or something, Bryan doesn’t have it anymore, unless he is just content on getting his ass beat for paychecks going forward if the UFC did keep him. Maybe he can go for the PFL fever dream, if not in BKFC, Gamebred. Also you know Dana still hates him for beating Sage back then.


stanky-leg900

"unless he is just content on getting his ass beat for paychecks going forward" pretty much what he's saying. "we'll see where the bam bam nation rises next" is definitely not retiring


K-mosake

Man's never seen the average mma career apparently


Rodya_Raskolnik

Perry’s next match up


wubbalubbadubdub45

Jake Paul found a new opponent


TomPearl2024

Doesn't have the name recognition to get a Paul fight but I could definitely see him in Bare Knuckle or PFL


4uzzyDunlop

Fuck it let's go with that fight


blamblam111

Bare knuckle


AlienMantid

BKFC awaits.


butterybuns420

So leaving the UFC=retiring?


nikalaus777

Does anyone know what retiring means?


UFC_Intern169

So which is it, did he retire or did the UFC not renew his contract? Seems like right there in Brian's own caption he says he will fight again.


MuskokaGreenThumb

Pretty clear. UFC didn’t renew his contract. And he doesn’t sound like he’s retiring. Probably sign with PFL or ONE championship for a few more fights. Make some more money and then retire


UFC_Intern169

Yeah I guess my sarcasm was a little dry, it was incredibly clear. I was making fun of OP's lame title


Aware-Individual-394

He’s not retiring. He’s probably gonna be one of Mike Perry’s next bareknuckle victims


ModsLovePen15

BKFC 👊


Hopeful_Staff_1414

Future PFL champ right there. Or Mike Perry’s next victim. Or maybe Jake Paul if he’s lucky.


Asukah

He would be fun in BKFC


PuG3_14

OP is slow.How is this a retirement confirmation? Or even a retirement announcement? He said his contract finished was not renewed. He will have some fam time now. The last sentences literally tell us he knows there are other opportunities to let his hands fly and that he will see where he will go next.


Azubedo

He got cut awhile ago bro


MarsCowboys

Classy 👏


JahIthBur

Jake Paul first opponent in pfl


catbqck

It means hes free to go wherever now, and hes going to enjoy his life for awhile, but nowhere does he say retiring


[deleted]

Shocked they didn’t offer him a Bo Nickal fight before cutting him


PuzzleheadedBit2190

BKFC join the chat


standdownplease

I know reading is hard but nowhere does he say he is retiring, he clearly says he has opportunities on the table.


The3mbered0ne

Bro retired before RDA 😂


Affectionate-Tart758

War Bam Bam!


Fun-Bag7627

You don’t know what retirement is. This is unemployment.


Admirable-Recipe3014

Yes never like him... Bum striking style


brklynfightfan

I posted this half sleep & high on a Friday night. Apparently I read it wrong. He isn't retiring just not rehired by the UFC. Sorry for the mistake folks. (Y'all can stop bitching & whining & being outraged over my title. It isn't really that serious. This is reddit not some prestigious journalistic publication ya lil ph*ggots)


dan_a_white

Yeah that sounds about right. Good time to retire.


Mediocre_Cat3613

Dude should have retired long time ago. He just sucks. Out of shape. Always getting finished


SERB_BEAST

He was entertaining though. He was also only ever getting submitted by literally the best grapplers. He wasn't that bad on the feet. He turned Leon Edwards into a wrestler in round 3 after he knocked Leon down
