In retrospect, while his stint with the UFC could have been better, Askren doesn’t regret how it all went down. Speaking to MMA Fighting, Askren said that he is proud of whatever he has achieved in his career. (h/t MMA Fighting)

Askren also opened up on how his hip injury led him to take the decision to step out of the fight game after his recent loss against MMA veteran Demian Maia.

Although he was initially supposed to get a hip replacement surgery, it turns out that Askren is undergoing a hip resurfacing procedure that will allow him to get back to full fitness.

Askren is also a wrestling coach and he intends to continue working with UFC flyweight Maycee Barber. He insisted that there are a lot of things keeping him busy at the moment.
