↵Five-time UFC veteran Dennis “Superman” Hallman (41-13-2 MMA, 1-4 UFC) will return to the lightweight division for the first time in nine years and plans to fight in late spring or early summer.
The 13-year mixed martial arts veteran said he made the decision after John Howard pulled off a come-from-behind victory in a welterweight contest at “The Ultimate Fighter 10” finale this past December.
“I just got into phenomenal shape and I can’t keep on weight,” Hallman on Wednesday told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). “I was weighing 167 pounds (before the fight) and I was literally drinking water while I was waiting to weigh-in for John Howard.
Dennis Hallman Drops to Lightweight
↵Hallman was beating Howard in their fight but just got caught at the very, very end of the final round and was finished. The drop to 155 was the correct move win or lose in that fight. He will probably always be a guy whose skills aren’t remembered in the way they deserve to be.
↵Maybe he’s gone one run left in him at lightweight.
