Bubba The Love Sponge had Randy Couture as a guest on his show. Couture commented that he would come back to the UFC if and when they signed Fedor Emelianenko, but that it would have to be under a new contract.

No word on whether this had to do with the money or the terms of his current contract which Couture has been highly opposed to publicly.

Couture is currently involved in a lawsuit against the UFC and is being backed by billionaire Mark Cuban of HDNet Fights. He is attempting to get out of his current UFC contract and become a free agent by June.

He has stated repeatedly that the only fight that interests him at this stage of his career is a battle against consensus number one heavyweight, Fedor Emelianenko.
