Former UFC Middleweight Champion Luke Rockhold explained why he decided to resume his fighting career.

Rockhold announced his retirement from the sport after losing to Paulo Costa in August last year. On April 29, the American will return after a short "retirement" to fight Mike Perry at the Bare Knuckle FC fisticuffs league tournament.

“When you fight, you feel alive. When you take a risk, you put something on the line, your heart starts beating faster, your blood pulsates and you enter the mode of maximum concentration.

Fighting makes my life meaningful. This is my favorite thing. I will fight until my head works and my eyes see. Throughout my career, I have not had any serious injuries. I am completely healthy mentally and physically, ”BJ Penn quotes Rockhold.
