Randy Couture talked to Sherdog.com about his future plans: 

Maybe this year, or maybe the first of next year. I haven’t really looked at the cards and the shows that they have. What’s on the schedule, I don’t know, but I’m especially leaning towards dropping down. I’m pushing in weight. It would be easy for me to make 205 and there’s more interesting fights there right now.

The five time UFC champion is targeting a return around the start of 2010, but in the mean time, he is also planning to do a few more films. Something which he could see himself doing even after he retires from fighting:

I realize at this stage in my career that I can’t fight forever, so it’s not logical for me to put the movie stuff on hold, I have too many opportunities and options right now.

It’s a constant juggling act with all the stuff that I’m doing, so I’ll have to get plenty of notice for fights and when I get a fight that comes on the radar that’s interesting, I shut everything else down for that nine or 10-week period.
