The American Psycho Stephan Bonnar has hinted that unless he gets the fight he wants against a top tier name, he will be retiring.

A member of the very first season of The Ultimate Fighter, Bonnar has recently seen a rejuvenation in his career as he won 3 fights straight by beating Kyle Kingsbury, Igor Pokrajac and Krzysztof Soszynski. However the hanging up of his gloves may be closer than first expected.


Speaking on FUEL TV’s post fight show, Bonnar had this to say:


“Put it this way, I have no interest in fighting the next big thing before the world realizes the talent of the guy. I’ve done that too much in my career, and I’m near the end of it. So if it’s not meant to be, if us being [TUF] coaches isn’t meant to be, then it isn’t meant to be. I’ve just got to accept that and move on. It’s fine with me, it really is.â€â€˜

Even with out coaching The Ultimate Fighter they should still do the Bonnar-Griffin fight.

Another fight would be with Little Nog.

I don't get why they gave a Fox main event to Brandon Vera while this guy has been sitting on his ass waiting for a fight.

Shogun/Bonnar would of been fireworks.

I guess they let Shogun pick his opponent for that show, but i agree it should've been Bonnar. Would hate to see the guy retire.

Should've gave Bonnar Rampage and put a stamp on both of their careers.

Both would be pleased and neither would get a wrestler. Win/win.

Fuck Joe Silva I should be booking this shit.
