Following UFC 128 loss, Ricardo Almeida retires from MMA competition

At 34 years old, Ricardo Almedia is ready to call it a career.

The Brazilian jiu-jitsu ace on Wednesday night posted a statement on his official website declaring his intentions.

"MMA is a great sport but also physically and mentally unforgiving," Almeida stated. "It is a dangerous task to step in the octagon, especially if your focus is not at 100 percent. After much deliberation since my fight at UFC 128, I have decided to step away from the sport as a fighter."
