The top contender faces UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman Dec. 12 at UFC 194, but Rockhold isn't feeling the pressure of challenging the No. 3 pound-for-pound fighter in the world.
"I don't feel nothing," Rockhold told Submission Radio. "I feel myself going in there and doing my job. That's what I feel. People want to see this as a close fight? I don't see it. I think Chris is going to be tough ... for a round. Maybe two. I'm going to run away with this fight. I'm going to take the belt home.
