Interesting. Is there more to the article? If you have a link I would like to read it.

And I don't think we will see Coleman in the UFC again. It will take some time before the particulars of the cross-over fights are worked out. And when they are, I would expect there to be a long line of fighters in front of him.

It's a shame too, back in the olden days when he first showed up in the UFC he was an absolute monster. I can remember him just tearing up the place. Everybody has seen the Pete Williams KO over Coleman, but not many people realize how much of a complete shocker that was. Probably the biggest upset in the UFC until that time. Coleman had just come off a grueling decision loss to Smith (his first in the UFC) and everybody expected him to come out like a steam-roller and crush Williams.

Oh well... good luck to him wherever he ends up. He probably should have left his shoes on the mat a long time ago, but he will always be remembered as one of the pioneers.
