Max Rohskopf breaks silence on UFC on ESPN 11, decision to call fight on stool

In the aftermath on UFC on ESPN 11, it was the event’s opening contest that has become the biggest story.

On Saturday, Austin Hubbard welcomed newcomer Max Rohskopf to the octagon in a lightweight bout. After a competitive first round, Hubbard took over in the second in the standup department, leading to a trio of 10-8 scorecards.

As the third round was about to begin, Rohskopf repeatedly told his coach Robert Drysdale that he was done and that he didn’t have it anymore. Eventually, both of them told the referee it was over, and Hubbard got a much-needed win.
