The more comfortable Duane “Bang” Ludwig gets with his head-coaching duties at Team Alpha Male, the more unlikely he is to make his own return to the cage. The 34-year-old UFC vet, who recently took over as head instructor for the fast-rising California squad, hasn’t officially decided on retirement, but he said he’s close. “I’m not retired, not officially yet,” he told MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio). “But it’s leaning toward that direction.” “Bang” accepted the Team Alpha Male gig in December, a few months after he blew out his knee in an eventual loss to Che Mills at UFC on FUEL TV 5. It marked his third straight defeat, though his fights camps had been plagued by injuries that hindered his preparation. Although he misses fighting, Ludwig has found plenty of satisfaction in contributing to the careers of Team Alpha Male fighters such as Urijah Faber , Chad Mendes , Joseph Benavidez , Danny Castillo , T.J.
