| Rashad Evans turned down Glover Teixeira fight at UFC 153, hopes to return in Jan/Feb Rashad Evans turned down Glover Teixeira fight at UFC 153, hopes to return in January or February Quote: |
"I don't know. I talked to Dana [White] early this week and we talked about maybe December. But I'm thinking maybe January or February. I will fight anybody. I want to get a fight at light heavyweight. They offered me a fight, but it was against Glover Teixeira and I only had three weeks to fight and I haven't been training. I was like, ‘no way, not with that notice in Brazil.'"

| Haha no you won't. You can't say you'll fight anybody in explaining why you turned down a fight.

Why should Rashad take a fight on short notice in Brazil against an unproven fighter? No established fighter would do such a foolish thing. So lets stop this people ducking Glover nonsense.

Can't blame top fighters for not wanting to fight a guy who's biggest win is Kyle Kingsberry.
