It wasn’t a definitive retirement announcement, but a dejected Al Iaquinta made it clear Thursday night that hanging up his gloves for good has weighed heavily on his mind since UFC 268. Iaquinta, fighting for the first time in two years, suffered a first-round TKO against Bobby Green on Nov. 6 for his third consecutive loss. Iaquinta also revealed on his “Call Me Al Show” that he at least partially tore his ACL during the fight. Everything – from the way he feels physically to his performance at UFC 268 – has Iaquinta, 34, giving serious consideration to calling it a career.
