TORONTO — Randy Couture‘s career lifespan is so beyond the scope of normal expectation, so mind-boggling, that there is actually a fair debate whether he — 47 years old in human time but ageless in the cage — should hang them up after Saturday night.

Will he or won’t he? It’s one of the big questions surrounding UFC 129 as MMA’s biggest promotion gears up for its massive event at the Rogers Centre. Couture will spend much of the next two days answering queries about his future, looking back at his past and trying to avoid further speculation from fans and pundits. It will be no easy feat. His future and what’s left of it is clearly on the minds of many of the 55,000 expected at the event and millions who follow the sport.

As for UFC president Dana White, he’s among the group that thinks Couture isn’t ready to pen his swan song just yet. Asked directly if he thinks we’ve seen the last of “Captain America” as an active fighter, White voiced his doubt.

Nine Ways of Looking at Randy Couture’s Final Fight

According to Randy Couture, his fight against Lyoto Machida at UFC 129 will be his last. After nearly 14 years in the cage and a couple failed attempts at walking away from the sport for good, the importance of this fight all depends on how you look at it.

I. Will he or won’t he? When Couture says that, win or lose, he’ll hang it up after this fight, it’s hard to take him at his word. Not to question “Captain America’s” credibility, but we’ve heard this song and dance before. His reasoning is perfectly sound. He can still compete at 47 years of age, but he’s also still healthy enough to enjoy the fruits of his labors and he’d like to keep it that way. That makes perfect sense. Then again, it’s not like that’s a new development in his life. Couture hasn’t needed the money for a while now. He’s been doing this because he loves it, and maybe – just maybe – because he’s addicted to the feeling he gets from standing in the cage on a Saturday night, listening to an arena full of people chant his name after he’s physically broken another human being. You can’t buy that kind of rush, but you might, if you’re not careful, go looking for it just a little too long.
