Speaking via MixedMartialArts.com, Chris 'The Crippler' Leben announced his interest in a Catchweight tear-up with TUF 1 rival Josh Koscheck , going on to say:“Yes, absolutely I would take a catchweight fight with Koscheck. It would stop everybody that has been saying to me every day since the show came out, ‘When are you going to get a rematch with Koscheck? I hate him! I wish you would beat his ass!’ That alone would make it worth it. As for the last of us to retire, I’m not sure, but truthfully, I hope it’s not me. I feel I’m at the top of my game right now. My technique and body feel better than they ever have. I would like to compete a few more years and see just how far I can go with my new sobriety and dedication to growing as a martial artist. Then, I’m out. I’m not trying to be a Randy Couture or Dan Henderson, fighting when I got grandkids. LOL.”
As for now Leben faces Andrew Craig at UFC 162 on July 6th in Las Vegas, Nevada, but says he will carry on pursuing this interest.
