Luke Rockhold believes American Kickboxing Academy is unfairly criticized over injuries

LOS ANGELES -- Is American Kickboxing Academy unfairly singled out over its training injuries?

The San Jose camp has come under fire in 2016 when a pair of pay-per-view main events dropped out due to AKA fighters withdrawing due to injury -- first in January, when Cain Velasquez's back injury caused him to drop out of his scheduled UFC 196 fight against Fabricio Werdum, then when Daniel Cormier's leg injury meant he had to withdraw from his UFC 198 rematch with Jon Jones, which has since been rescheduled for UFC 200.
