The Boogeyman Joins Xtreme Couture


UFC middleweight and acclaimed grappler Dean “The Boogeyman” Lister has joined Randy Couture’s camp, Xtreme Couture, and is eyeing a return to the octagon on December 29.

Lister, who is currently training in Croatia with Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic, will train with Xtreme Couture. As a co-owner of a new Xtreme Couture facility in San Diego, Lister will serve as head trainer, as well.

As for Lister’s next fight, his manager, Jerry Villasenor, says that although no opponent has been named, Lister would likely face the winner of the Rich Franklin/Anderson Silva fight at UFC 77. I doubt that highly.
