Couture not thinking about retiring

MMA legend Randy Couture insists he has not thought about retiring from mixed martial arts.

Couture has recently signed a new six-fight contract with the UFC and the veteran believes he could even fight on beyond that deal.

He told The Sun: “I’m not in the illusion that I’m going to fight forever, but I’m having a blast.

“I’m still getting better as an athlete and a fighter and will take one fight at a time.

“But it’s not really about achievement anymore, or accolades or any of that. It’s more about doing what I have a passion for and doing what I love.

“I love to train and I love the competition, and I love to do it. Achievements and winning titles and all the other stuff is the icing on the cake.”
