Mauricio Rua is finally ready to walk away from the sport that’s consumed the majority of his life.

Rua (27-13-1 MMA, 11-11-1 UFC), better known to most MMA fans simply as “Shogun,” has announced he will retire after his UFC 283 fight with Ihor Potieria, which takes place Jan. 21 at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro with a main card that airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ABC and ESPN+
