Back in the Saddle: On the sidelines for more than 500 days, Rani Yahya will return to the cage to face Montel Jackson at UFCVegas71. via CopperHeartCT
at UFC Fight Night 198 on Nov. 20, 2021. The win improved his UFC mark to 12-4, but his layoff now sits at more than 500 days.
“The main thing for me was to feel good enough to fight,” Yahya said. “I would never place myself in a situation where I’d fight only for the money. Money was never my main motivation. My motivation was always the challenge in front of me. Now, I’m happy. I spent a lot of money on the training camps for the fights that didn’t happen, but everything happens for a reason. I’ll fight and make up for it all.
Preparation for a return to action has stoked the longtime Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt’s competitive fires. Yahya turns 39 in September. “I’ve been in this career for over 20 years,” he said. “It has been a very long time. I feel that I keep getting better, as each fight is greater than before. The sport keeps growing, and the UFC is responsible for that. My next bout is always the most important, and that increases my motivation.”
