ABU DHABI – Katlyn Chookagian thinks her words about retirement have been misconstrued, and the women’s flyweight contender attempted to set the record straight before UFC on ESPN+ 38. Chookagian (14-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC), who meets former UFC strawweight champion Jessica Andrade (20-8 MMA, 11-6 UFC) in Saturday’s co-headliner at Flash Forum at Yas Island and streams on ESPN+, has openly talked about her career timeline for the past few fights. The passion is still there for Chookagian, she’s said, but the idea of starting a family has become more and more prevalent in her mind of late. She recently told ESPN she’d considered walking away after her latest win in May, and at this point any fight could be her last. That doesn’t mean this one will be, though.
