Luke Rockhold got into a friendly grappling exchange with NBA legend Tim Duncan over the weekend.
The former Strikeforce and UFC middleweight champion is gearing up for his Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship debut on April 28. Before he steps into the squared circle, Rockhold was backstage at UFC San Antonio to support friend Marlon ‘Chito’ Vera as he stepped into the main event for a high-stakes matchup with fellow-top bantamweight contender Cory Sandhagen.
In a video clip shared on Luke Rockhold’s Instagram, the outspoken scrapper can be seen tangling up with San Antonio Spurs icon Tim Duncan in a friendly exchange behind the scenes.
