From phony fight announcements to falsely announcing their return to the cage to misdirections over their career, the MMA world pulled no punches with the fans.

I have decided to return to professional fighting. This short retirement reinvigorated my passion to compete. I’m now faster and stronger than I have ever been. That yearning to walk into the octagon is something that I just can’t live without. #MMA #UFC #ROOSTER #comeback #title pic.twitter.com/T02W4fuB2B
