UFC Veteran Unretires

Kyle Noke was last seen in action at UFC Fight Night 101 and he was promptly defeated by Omari Akhmedov via unanimous decision.

Following that defeat, the Australian announced his retirement from the sport, but that retirement didn’t last very long.

Noke has announced that he is ending his self-imposed retirement and is going to be returning to action in the near future.

That announcement was made via Instagram:

 

 

My last few fights I lost that fire, I was just in there because I didn't know anything else...... now that I've had time to rest and heal, time away from the gruelling training sessions and constant grind, I miss it now more than ever. I will fight again. I have that fire -- again.

The fighter is not listed on the UFC roster page at the moment, so he could be free to pursue a fight with any promotion that he chooses to do business with.

Even though Noke has announced his intention to return to action, the returning fighter didn’t give a timeframe for when his first bout back will take place.
