After Chris Weidman’s smashing defeat of Vitor Belfort on Saturday night, only one fight makes sense.
Luke Rockhold, the former Strikeforce middleweight champion, is in the middle of a four-fight winning streak. After losing to Belfort (the old TRT-fueled version, not the mortal one) in May 2013, Rockhold has scored wins over Costas Philippou, Tim Boetsch, Michael Bisping and Lyoto Machida. And Rockhold didn’t just beat the four men; he finished all of them. He beat Philippou by TKO and then submitted Boetsch, Bisping and Machida.
