Faber finally confirmed he was coming back and it was just a matter of time:

Huge news. Urijah Faber tells @arielhelwani he's coming back. Just a matter of getting his body right and jumping on the right opportunity.#HelwaniShow Link:https://t.co/OV9517EvQt

‘The California Kid’ certainly wasn’t his usually dominant self during the tail end of his UFC run, but few are. There are definitely some fun fights available for him at 145 pounds, where it appears he’ll be returning to.

Who would you like to see him fight in his return?
