Former UFC Middleweight Champion Chris Weidman spoke about the desired timeframe for returning to the octagon.

“I want to fight before my 38th birthday. I hate to look at the screen when they announce me before the fight and see that I have aged another year. I have always been like this, even until my thirtieth birthday. I wanted to get into a fight at 28, before I was 29. I still have some of it, I just got a little older.

So if I can fight in early June, that would be great. Again, it's all in limbo and very unpredictable," Weidman said in an interview with MMA Fighting.

Recall that Weidman's last fight was in April last year against Uriah Hall. Chris broke his leg in the first round and was defeated by technical knockout.
