I believe Dana White has said that Forrest Griffin and Stephan Bonnar have jobs for life with the UFC, so I wonder what's next for Stephan Bonnar?

"I don't want to have to do this living. I just walk around. I want to be swept off my feet, you know? I want my children to have magical powers. I am prepared for amazing things to happen. I can handle it."

Bonnar does a great job breaking down fights and giving fans insight on what the fighters are thinking and their reasoning. He's hilarious too which helps a lot.

Because of Stefan Bonnar the UFC and MMA was put on the map. His epic fight with Forrest Griffin made casual fans take notice of MMA, and since then has never been in a boring fight. He hasn't just contributed as a fighter, but as an MMA analyst and commentator. Though he may be retired from fighting, I'm sure we'll see more of him on UFC Ultimate Insider and UFC Tonight. I also hope to see him commentating on many UFC fights to come over the years. Thank you Stefan Bonnar for all of the great and entertaining fights you have given us. I know that you will be just as entertaining as a commentator and analyst as your were a fighter.

I'm sure he will take some time off but he will be back in some capacity. So much for the dream of a Bonnar vs griffin tuf season.....
