Terrell Eyes a Return to UFC as LHW

According to a GracieFighter.com post, David "The Soul Assassin" Terrell's return to the UFC - this time as a light heavyweight - could be as early as this year.

The very talented but often-injured Terrell explains that the rigors of cutting to 185 "often left him drained of energy and susceptible to sickness," and the 29-year-old now looks forward to competing at 205 lbs.

Terrell, a famed grappler and Cesar Gracie Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, holds UFC victories over Scott Smith and Matt Lindland, with his one octagon loss coming to Evan Tanner when the two battled for the vacant middleweight title.
