(This story appears in today’s edition of USA TODAY .) Rashad Evans can admit it now: Before his last fight, the former UFC light heavyweight titleholder was scared. Not scared of his opponent or fearful of being beaten up on live TV, though no one would blame Evans for being concerned about either. Instead, it was fear of where his career might be headed after two consecutive defeats and whether his numerous critics might be on to something.
