In an interview with reporter Karyn Bryant on the MMAHeat.com website, Randy Couture seems uncertain about his future in MMA. However, the former champion of two UFC divisions doesn’t hide his desire to face the top of the promotion’s light heavyweight heap, among them current champion Maurício Shogun.
Shogun, who is recovering from knee surgery, and is tipped to face Rashad Evans upon returning to the octagon in 2011. However, he was flattered by “The Natural’s” interest in facing him:
“I, too, would very much like to fight Randy Couture, an MMA legend,” he said over Twitter.
