Luke Rockhold: ‘Right now, I’m just happy not fighting’

Luke Rockhold isn’t making any declarations about retiring from mixed martial arts, but it’s likely he’s fought his last fight.

The former UFC and Strikeforce middleweight champion last competed in July where he suffered a broken jaw in a knockout loss to Jan Blachowicz in his debut at 205 pounds. In the aftermath of that fight, Rockhold took time off to recover, and while he’s recently signed up for a grappling match against ADCC runner-up Nick Rodriguez at Polaris 12 on Nov. 30, his future plans probably won’t involve fighting again.

“My head is content where I’m at right now,” Rockhold told MMA Fighting.
