Luke Rockhold might have called it a career with the UFC, but that doesn’t mean the 37-year-old isn’t open to exploring new avenues outside of MMA.
Rockhold hinted at and later confirmed his retirement from MMA after suffering a grueling decision loss to Paulo Costa at UFC 278, with both fighters earning a $50,000 Fight of the Night bonus for their efforts.
Rockhold is a former two-promotion champion in MMA, having held titles in Strikeforce and the UFC, and admits the possibility of dipping his toes into boxing and having some success in another sport is a prospect that excites him, although not necessarily a priority right now.
