Stefan Struve Considering Retirement After UFC Prague, But Not '100 Percent Sure'
Stefan Struve was back in action in the co-main event of UFC Prague on Saturday. “The Skyscraper,” who made it known he was on his last fight of his contract, ended up getting a much-needed win that could mark his final Octagon appearance.

"This is something I've thought over a lot. I think everyone is aware that my heart is not 100 percent. When I made my comeback, I told myself I'd fight five years,” Struve said. "I've fought a little longer since then. My heart is good, but there is a very good opportunity that this is my last fight.
“So, thank you very much. I took my gloves off, I'm not 100 percent sure yet. It's not a decision I've made right now. I lost my last three before this and to get a win like this, a lot of people end their careers too late. I'm going to overthink this, so this is not 100 percent but I feel like this is a great moment. Thank you to all the fans, I love you.”
If it is the end, Struve finishes his UFC tenure among the all-time heavyweight leaders in wins, finishes and submissions. “The Skyscraper” has compiled a 13-9 mark during a promotional career that includes notable wins over Stipe Miocic, Pat Barry, and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, among others.
