“I don't like this guy. I think he shows disrespect for our sport and this motivates me to correct his behavior. He is somehow high in the rankings even though he can't even make weight.
Nevertheless, we can get an interesting duel. I think I can show him the door. He constantly wants to make excuses about wine and weight, and apparently has liver problems. He is like a duck. He can swim, he can fly, but he can't do anything great," Rockhold told Submission Radio.
Recall that Rockhold has not appeared in the octagon since July 2019, when he made a foray into the light heavyweight division and was knocked out by Jan Blachowicz.
