Matt Brown, a UFC veteran, said he shouldn't believe fighters who say they're retired. According to Matt, they will definitely find a reason to return.
“Never believe a fighter who says he has retired. The asshole will never retire, that's a fact. In fact, fighters never retire. There will always be a reason that will bring you back. I don’t know what can replace this. Finding purpose and direction is difficult. A lot of guys go through depression."
