Do you really think he is going to stay retired? I believe he will be back he just got his feelings hurt after loosing to a great Nick Diaz!

I see one more run at 155. Gotta love a guy who will fight anyone

As far as Diaz, be careful what you wish for.

BJ's younger brother just began his Pro fighting career recently.  Helping coach him may be another reason for BJ contemplating stepping out of the right.  BJ has made it clear he doesn't like training for fights and so motivation has always been the biggest obstacle for him throughout his career.  However, I can see him coming back for a fight or two if they found an opponent that motivated him.  I can only see a few people that may fit that description considering he's already ran the gambit of multiple GSP and Hughes fights.

BJ does not like to train. He looked flabby and out of shape for the Diaz fight. The dude is still a total badass with really crafty hands. He just doesn't have a fire in his belly for it. He'll be back for a couple typical "battle-of-the-legends" fights that nobody really cares about.

During Reagan's last fight on HDNET the play-by-play guys (which if you've never heard Mike Schiavello and Frank Trigg call an event, you must do it, they're the best in the business) were saying that BJ had already rescinded his retirement announcement. It was just him getting caught up in the emotions of the moment.

During Reagan's last fight on HDNET

Didn't realize he had fought again.  I watched his first fight online.  He did well, but not near his brothers level yet.  Figured BJ may get more out of training his brother for fights these days.

Yeah it was on the card that Arlovski kicked Fulton's head into the front row. Pro-Elite I think.
