Former UFC heavyweight champ Kevin Randleman admits hasty returns to the cage have been a detriment to his fighting career.
Randleman, who recently completed a small role in the upcoming Men in Black 3 film, tells MMAFighting.com he’s back in the gym training, but won’t be rushing into his next fight. Taking time out after the shoot to reevaluate his career, Randleman came to realize he hasn’t been allowing himself to recover from injuries.
“Any fighter will tell you that the hardest thing to do is wait to heal but I have learned my lesson — the hard way unfortunately — and I did way more harm than good for myself pushing too much too soon,” Randleman said. “I also realized that when I would get in the cage that getting hurt was something that was always in the back of my mind because I knew I wasn’t 100 percent. I just tried to talk myself into it — because I wanted to fight so bad.”

Former UFC lightweight champ Jens Pulver (23-14-1) this past Saturday submitted Mike Lindquist with a first-round rear-naked choke at an XFO event in Woodstock, Ill., snapping a six-fight losing streak.
It was Pulver’s first win in over three years and would have retired had he fallen short against the unheralded fighter (6-20), Pulver said Monday on MMAFighting.com’s The MMA Hour.
“Not ripping on Mike or anything,” Pulver told host Ariel Helwani. “But it’s time to start over and if I’m getting caught in the same things, hey, well, ‘You got to go.’ Done.”

“I think it’s needed,” McMahon said. “I think that it’s going to take further growth in the industry. I think that you’re going to have to have a little bit more of a level playing field between the fighters, the management groups and the promotions before you are able to be in a position where you can really have enough strength from the fighter’s side to be able to come together in a union. But it’s an important issue.”
