Rockhold has had my attention since his Strikeforce days when he took the belt.The kid is a stud, physical specimen and his confidence is amazing (cocky yes but it allows him to fight smart and with commitment). I wanna see him vs Jacara again, goddamn the bjj would be flowing that night and Rockhold has way better stand up but JAcara has the 1 punch KO. Also, the earlier weigh ins @ 10am and allowing the fighters more time to rehydrate is excellent of the CAC. This should be implemented across the board in mma venues. And not allowing to put on more then 18lb still seems a bit ridiculous but Luke had a point about guys like smaller then him putting on 20+lb after weigh ins!!
Rockhold vs Weidman is a clash of two of the most dangerous and skilled fighters on the planet - both very good strikers with power and absolutely elite grapplers. After DC retires (the man is approaching 40 after all) I would love to see what Rockhold could do in the LHW division. Jones' size, length, and wrestling would be tough to deal with, but Rockhold could well be the best contender there especially if he bulks up.
+Edward Rodriguez Luke Rockhold rag-dolled Chris Weidman, Absolutely embarrassed and destroyed him, he made Weidman look really bad during their first fight for the championship.. It was just an awful sight to see like Weidman wasn't ready lol
1:55 - I think he really should not even think about going up to 205. That would not be a super-fight. At this point he had not even defended the belt and thinks he would be a super fight, seriously? He must have bought his own hype and now, if he doesn't get a rematch he will be in some trouble, because he will churn in the top 5 for a while with the others being a really stacked division. Jacare, Romero, Weidman
I'm a reporter. he is writing down the time mark of a particular comment. so when he replays the video, he knows what time frame to go to. for example, 4.20min
Luke is an awesome fighter, no doubt and he deserves to be a champion but he sounds way too confident and bit cocky about beating Chris again. Chris is no joke. Chris is also an amzing fighter too. I am sure Chris is very motivated and hungry now to get his belt back. If you ask me who will win second time around, I would bet my money on Chris because I really believe Chris was not himself when he first fought Luke. Chris just didn't look right when I watched him fight against Luke and I watched all of his fights at the UFC. I believe Chris will comeback at 100% like he should and beat Luke this time. And then they will fight again just like Cain did with JDS. What do you guys think?
A.Silva, V. Belford, and L. Machida are no jokes. They were serious fighters when Chris beat them all. Silva twice. They were not washed up fighters. Again, Luke is an awesome fighter and deserves to be a champ but fight is fight. I have been watching mma from the very beginning and even the best of the best fighters lose time to time and Chris is no exception. All fighters lose no matter who they are. But Chris is also a champion in my mind and I really think he will comeback really strong next time and beat Luke. If Luke beats Chris again then hands down Luke is a better fighter but again I just think Chris did not look right when he first fought Luke. Also, Chris made a big mistake when he did that spinning back kick which cost him the fight until then he was doing fine and actually was winning the fight. We shall see. I am really excited about this fight. BTW...here are my all favorite fighters all time in order. Fedor, A. Silva, GSP, Jon Jones, Weiman, Aldo,and RDA. And you?
Luke Rockhold is a phenomenal fighter but it seems to me he come across most of his interview as being arrogant and cocky. I just wish he can be more respectful towards Chris Weidman. Maybe is because when you are defending the belt, you can't let your opponent see through you. The mental factor plays an important role too. I just wish may the best men wins.
It is blatantly obvious Luke will beat Weidman up again, only this time do it quicker and give him more of a beating! Anyone saying otherwise is deluded and talking sheer flatulence, if Luke wants to pull down Weidman's shorts and play the bongo drums on Weidman's bare buttock cheeks there is nothing he could do to stop it, that is how much Luke will control this fight.
+Todd Simone I think he is a little scraed. I think nobody really wants to face Jon right now. he is in the best shape and has a lot of anger he is going to take out on someone.
you know what wasn't weak luke? trt vitor and the spinning head kick from jupiters second moon. boom get back on your surfboard vitor smashed tank abott
Man, screw all of this BS! Luke is going to destroy Chris Whineman. And then he needs to fight Jon Jones in a super fight and then we'll know who the baddest man in the world truly is. DC forget about it!!!
Just really hate the way he speaks. Not the words necessarily but the muscle movements, his lips etc.. It's like he sniffs and snarls giving a micro expression of disgust every time he talks.
DC: Luke you think i'm just gonna sit here and let you insinuate I'm a fake champ?

2:35 Juh-Car lmao
+Daniel Rivera Bro, doesn't she know Jafar is comin in on short notice against the Magic Carpet (at flyweight)?
HAHAHA dumb bitch probly doesn't know a single thing
+Daniel Rivera - LMFAO.
Ja Carr, that girl was just reading questions
Luke is a incredible fighter,he has arrived at he point in his career where he can truly stop anyone..
I'd like to see Luke vs Jones someday at 205 or CW
Me too but I doubt Jones could go any lower than LHW so no catchweight it would have to be at 205 probably.
+CaptainCranch Same here, but as long as DC is at 205 I don't see Luke fighting Jon.
This is what a dominant champion looks like. No gimmicks. Just skill and talent.
This is a guy who has a chip on his shoulder and uses it to his advantage mentally. Same goes for the Diaz bros.
IMO Rockhold would be very difficult to beat ... Very athletic and technical
He didn't look "very athletic and technical" in his last fight with Luke 😳
+Tito-Dorrito 10 ?
+Edward Rodriguez Luke Rockhold rag-dolled Chris Weidman, Absolutely embarrassed and destroyed him, he made Weidman look really bad during their first fight for the championship.. It was just an awful sight to see like Weidman wasn't ready lol
My bad Murray and everyone else! I didn't notice he put Rockhold I thought he put "Weidman would be.." I'm a fool guys lol
Ah, thanks for clearing that up. Lol
I used to hate luke back when I didn't know who he was, I think he's a good guy
Why is that guy making notes when everyone records interviews even with a cellphone these days? LMAO
I am very excited for this fight. Im not picking a side, i am just going to enjoy the show
+Davi Lima me too man both fighters are very special
+Davi Lima if you picked a side, would you then now enjoy the show? ))
The press keep asking the same questions.
Luke looked mildly pissed off
at 4:14 "to beat him worse" LOLLLLL what a savage
I like this attitude, seems sincere, not fake cocky. After he beats the hell outta Weidman, he should beat that F'n stupid look off Werdums face.
1:55 - I think he really should not even think about going up to 205. That would not be a super-fight. At this point he had not even defended the belt and thinks he would be a super fight, seriously?
He must have bought his own hype and now, if he doesn't get a rematch he will be in some trouble, because he will churn in the top 5 for a while with the others being a really stacked division. Jacare, Romero, Weidman
For the sake of no more rematches I hope Luke wins a second time against Weidman.
9:03
RDA and Fabricio werdum, cmon your a journalist.
They are following the Khabib uncrowned champ statement
sibling rivalry at it's best
man i wish i had his looks
Only camp that has two world champions, Kings MMA has RDA and Werdum 9:02
He is smart and 100% right about the "cantanimated suplinents" go Luke!
Did that reporter really written down all what Luke said? What's the point when he has a recorder.
I'm a reporter. he is writing down the time mark of a particular comment. so when he replays the video, he knows what time frame to go to. for example, 4.20min
Dude jotting down the whole interview...so 1920s
@ 12:33 chris weidman attempts to take luke's belt
Cool hand Luke... Chris seems a little less worked up lately, but I can't see how he beats Rockhold
Wait.... He said Jon Jones shouldn't fight for the interim belt? As in he thinks Jones should have DC's belt? Thought they were buds.
Jacahr and Belfort eh?
I think Rockhold would give Jones a good fight at 205 with a full camp, thoughts?
I don't think it's possible to look more American than Rockhold
Who is this doing the interviews. Just reading questions. No clue about fighting it seems.
Sounds like rockhold and DC will soon be hating each other
Agreed.
He got ahead of himself and his ego consumed him....Bisping grounded him and then suffered the same fate
2:34 Jackar and Belfort, ha
Luke is an awesome fighter, no doubt and he deserves to be a champion but
he sounds way too confident and bit cocky about beating Chris again. Chris is no joke.
Chris is also an amzing fighter too. I am sure Chris is very motivated and hungry now to get his belt back.

If Weidman hadnt gone for that spinning kick he would have won..he was in the ascendancy..
+Paddy Robinson Weidman wins the rematch.
"Chris speaks about himself in third-person......... You did lose to Luke Rockhold" - Luke Rockhold
usa today chick was trying to feed him that mic
Luke Rockhold is a phenomenal fighter but it seems to me he come across most of his interview as being arrogant and cocky. I just wish he can be more respectful towards Chris Weidman. Maybe is because when you are defending the belt, you can't let your opponent see through you. The mental factor plays an important role too. I just wish may the best men wins.
I see insecurities.
Weidman should take his back and finish next time.
People are scared to go up weight because their friends fight in that division who gives a fuck
DO YOU SMELL WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKIN???
Luke about to get Wrestlefucked in the rematch.
jakaaar!!!
Kings MMA has 2 champs too
"Ive done this and beat him and him and chris cant touch me" chris has won in 10 times the dominant fashion, what about vitor belfort?
+spiros botos Only one of them fought TRTitor.
Thats is truth
rockhold is going to destroy weidman again
AND NEW!!!!!!!! WITHOUT THROWING SPINNINGS SHITS CHRIS WILL WIN! AND THIS IS STILL MY BOY! !!!
He is lucky to train with Nurmagomedov! He probably learned a lot from him.
Luke keeps talking trash, but at the end of the day if it wasn't for Wiedman, Luke would be smashed by Silva.
Lol who is Jacar?
It is blatantly obvious Luke will beat Weidman up again, only this time do it quicker and give him more of a beating! Anyone saying otherwise is deluded and talking sheer flatulence, if Luke wants to pull down Weidman's shorts and play the bongo drums on Weidman's bare buttock cheeks there is nothing he could do to stop it, that is how much Luke will control this fight.
lol at luke talking like he dominated weidman for the entire fight. If anything, Luke was losing the fight before that ugly kick.
Trying to talk like McGregor too much
+FifaMcFlurry Right, he'd better be careful... or he could provoke the Stockton slap and a 209 bitch choke ala McTapout.
who cares if he's cocky all great fighters are cocky that's how they promote themselves
Tell your buddy DC about how to train smart. he must be scared to come face to face with jones again
+Todd Simone I think he is a little scraed. I think nobody really wants to face Jon right now. he is in the best shape and has a lot of anger he is going to take out on someone.
+Loveoldies7 both yall dumb ass fuck if you think a mma fighter is scared of another fighter
Lol, how come everyone who wins the mw belts gets so cocky so fast
What about vitor son? 😂😂😂
vitoooooor belfort
Lucke so scared of Romero
rockhold=dime piece
you know what wasn't weak luke? trt vitor and the spinning head kick from jupiters second moon. boom get back on your surfboard vitor smashed tank abott
Chris Weidman got tired and went for that ugly ass kick, DON'T GET TIRED WEIDMAN!!!!!!!!!!!
why is this guy not kicking jones's ass. he looks plenty big and skilled enough??
+badgr fan Jon Bones Jones ?
Jon jones would smoke luke rockhold
+Timemaster f nah you cant say that when jones is walking around at 225
Jones would beat the snot out of Luke Rockhold.
this fool wants to be conor mcgregor so bad
+Ghostific yep conor was the first cocky guy to get into the fight game
+Ghostific YUP
+RJ Ikr...
Errrr... No
+Kung Lao Master HAHA

+tank can sing minus the luke
Todd Simone shut up bro

+Todd Simone lol u really thar petty
5:20 "he jumped on my back"......hey hypocrite you took his back too...so are you weak rockhold?
OH THE HYPOCRISY lol
Luke will smoke Chris!
he's so beautiful. I could listen and stare at the man all night.
+InternatioNATE absolutely
Man, screw all of this BS! Luke is going to destroy Chris Whineman. And then he needs to fight Jon Jones in a super fight and then we'll know who the baddest man in the world truly is. DC forget about it!!!
craps from a man with no knock out punch
Act like conner haha jj is waiting
Why does he keep bringing up Chris's family...he must have been neglected or something...hope Chris submits him.
who is the creepfest guy with the notepad and pencil? People use notepads and pencils??
Going out there to beat him worse - Luke Rockhold.
Expect a worse fight from Luke folks, wow.
POLITICS PRE TRUMP - 5 : HIGH LEVEL UFC >10 : TRUMPITICS >5 : TRUMPTENCICS >10
Just really hate the way he speaks. Not the words necessarily but the muscle movements, his lips etc.. It's like he sniffs and snarls giving a micro expression of disgust every time he talks.
POLITICS PRE TRUMP - 5
