Ben posted to the UG:

It's Official I am back in the UFC!!!!   I wanna Thank Jeff and Lex of Titan FC for letting me go pursue my dreams! They really live up to their slogan " Fans, Fighters, First "

I made a promise to myself when I was released by the UFC in 2010 that I would not stop and would not quit until I made it back. I have done nothing since then but train my ass of to improve my skill-set knowing that one day I would accomplish this goal. I am so happy to announce with great pride that if you believe in something and pursue it with everything you got....  it can be achieved! I am living proof of this!  :) 

Welcome back to the big(ger) show!

I've been a fan of Ben for a while, I always routed for him in Bellator and I'm glad he's getting another shot in the UFC, but in all honesty I just don't know how far he's going to get. As unfortunate as it sounds I could for sure see him going 0-2 or 0-3 and just getting cut. Hoping for the best for him, but definitely expecting the worst.

Will never forget his fight with Marcus Davis..."This ***** didn't even throw a punch and knocked his ass out". Also the UFC needs more guys who can fight competently off their backs. Glad to see him return, no shame in losing to Douglas Lima....no telling how good that guy really is.

He is fighting Chris Heatherly in 2 weeks in Tulsa. The sole Fight Pass prelim. Way quicker than I thought it'd be!

Thought this was a weird signing, but it'll be cool to see him back. I think I'll be picking him in his first fight back.
