Luke Rockhold: I’m moving up to 205 to get after ‘princess’ Jon Jones

“Just hold tight, I’m coming princess.”

Those are the words of former UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold, whose next fight is slated to be in the light heavyweight division. The “princess” in question is current champion Jon Jones, who won the vacant title by TKO vs. Alexander Gustafsson at last week’s UFC 232.

Rockhold spoke with TMZ about Jones’ winning performance, and how well he matches up with “Bones.”

“I thought he looked beatable,” Rockhold said (via MMA Fighting). “He’s good on the feet, he’s tactical, Jon, he adjusts and he fights to his advantages.
