Evan Tanner

Anyone know where Evan Tanner has been? Is he still with the UFC. Does he fight anymore?

according to his blogs, he's just been traveling for the past few months and battling some personal issues. he's been putting in some time with chutebox usa out in cali. not sure when he'll fight next though.

He is still with the UFC at the moment, just as said above. traveling the country and dealing with personal issues. he will be back but for the moment, this is probably best for him than a few fights

I wish he could get the belt again before he retires but I don't see that happening....

He definately needs to get his shit straight before he comes back.

Hope to see him back soon though.

evan tanner is a great fighter, i love watching him fight. He always comes to fight and he always puts on a great show, i know the ufc is keeping him around. He is a legit fighter at 185 and i thought that anderson silva would fight him before franklin honestly... i would like to see that fight even though he would be a large underdog, but he always has been

Marquardt is rumored to be fighting Thales Leites on UFN 7.

I believe Evan was going through a divorce or bad breakup with a long-term girlfriend. Not sure if he reunited with her or if he found someone else, but whatever woman problems he was battling before, seem to be over judging from his most recent blog. I just hope the guy is off the sauce.

hope to see him back soon. He is a great guy and fighter. Did not one of his friends pass away a few months back? I think it was in his blogg. Maybe thats why he is not back?
Read the chute box thing too and he said he was getting back to the gym and then getting his belt back but....
