Just a few years ago, Luke Rockhold was considered one of the brightest prospects in all of MMA, with the potential to lord over the middle weight division for year to come. Now, almost impossibly, it appears the former middleweight champion is strongly considering calling it a career.
Speaking with ESPN’s Ariel Helwani recently, Rockhold said he currently has no designs on fighting again.
“I have no interest in fighting right now,” Rockhold said.
It’s easy to see why Rockhold feels that way. After losing his middleweight title when Michael Bisping knocked him out in 2016, Rockhold rebounded with a comeback win over David Branch.
