Jens Pulver will fight again in WEC in 2010, according to Mike Chiappetta on the UG:
"I had a chance to talk to Jens yesterday. Truly one of the most fun guys to talk to in the sport. He says he will be fighting again in the WEC next year."
"Jens mentioned he was diagnosed with depression and anxiety recently and for the first time in his life started taking medication for it, and he feels so much better now. Also, he left Iowa and moved back to Idaho, and will be starting his own gym. When it's set up, he'll being training again. He thinks he's in a much better place mentally and geographically and it will pay dividends in the cage."

Reed Harris also talked to Fighters Only about this:
"We’re talking to Jens. I cant confirm anything right now but Jens has indicated to us that he would like to fight again, I can tell you that,"
on the retirement talks:
"That [situation is] not exclusive to Jens. There’s certainly a time where every fighter should look at retirement but its up to Jens to decide if that is something he should be looking at."

Really hope the old Pulver comes back into the cage, not the one who has lost his last 5 out of 6 since 2007.

Wow he left Iowa.
Never thought I would see the day. I have always been a fan of lil evil, hope he makes a strong come back.

I don't think he'll be able to put together any kind of run
but I love the guy and I wish him the best. At the very least, I hope he goes out on a win and gets a solid job with Zuffa.
Do you remember Grispi’s face after he beat him? Grispi actually looked like he felt bad about winning

Yea man
I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but I’d rather him retire than get beaten again. Zuffa should have him commentate for the WEC.

What? And replace Frank Mir? Who, then, will entertain us?

It's only a matter of time
before Mir jumps over the cage and molests Miguel Torres. Do we really want to see that happen?

I think he’d be a good third wheel in the UFC booth, just stop fighting.

A Stoner, an Idiot, and a Country Boy in one booth?
Sounds like the beginning of a bad joke lol.
