[@kylemickelson9411]

Might be the craziest retirement fight in history. Luke was not giving up AT ALL

[@frasierm314]

Luke’s Americanized Muay Thai striking was always enjoyable to watch to me. Awesome fighter, left it all out in the octagon against Paulo here 🔥

[@silverback6497]

Luke literally had one of the best retirement fights ever

[@vishalparihar1230]

His nose broke in the first round, also they were fighting in Altitude that's why he was gassed so much but he show pure heart in this fight .

[@serzambrano6151]

It is crazy that his retirement fight may be his best fight.

[@Tired_leopard]

You can’t be serious omg. Luke had some flawless performances before his form dipped

[@smallnapoleon3594]

Jacare souza or chris weidmann fight were the best for me

[@Tired_leopard]

@@smallnapoleon3594 yes for sure. Here are my top pics Phillipou: flawless standing and amazing body shot win Boetsch: Luke showed flawless wrestling and ju jitsu submission win Bisping 1: flawless head movement and kicks. Quick submission win Machida: great striking with a dangerous lyoto, finished him easily like Jon jones did. Weidman: flawless wrestling against an all American wrestler. Etc… This guy was a great great fighter. Can strike, wrestle and submit people. I respect him a lot

[@burritobandit45]

His most flawless performance was by far against Lyoto Machida

[@serzambrano6151]

@@Tired_leopard Never Said Flawless o r most dominant. Stop taking others peoples opinion and making it something else.

What a warrior!!! Respect Luke from Russia.

[@prome1966]

Went out like a SAVAGE 😮

[@michaelmercer5017]

Straight up, now that's how you retire, he may not have won but he showed true grit and savagery, mfckin beast

[@MRWAXMAN]

Luke showed us his samurai spirit in this fight for sure😂🗿🍷

[@FelixFrost]

Don't know why many disrespected him.. His a badass

[@Chopper51138]

Because he used to be bad about underestimating very dangerous opponents in a cringy way and then would got violently finished. It happened multiple times but he seemed to mature a lot in his time off since then.

[@diegofonseca6708]

Because for the longest he was ultra cringe and didn’t really seem to have a solid focused game-plan.

[@GrifterTheBoyIdiot]

He'd have a bad gameplan like the other comment said , for example He'd always drop his left when he'd throw a right for some reason Bisping picked up on this and knocked him out.

[@thomascambrion4408]

Keyboard warriors who got too emotionally invested in hating people that they don't even know on a personal basis

Because he was pretty and honest. The world is full of ugly liars

Dude trying to give any and all blood borne diseases all in one go.

[@edselsugay4768]

Dude, when this guy in on, he is ON. Hats off to Rockhold.

[@a-man3179]

It's so easy to forget or not realise that Luke was a badass.

[@michaelsantoro170]

Sad to see him retire, but also happy for him to make the decision to do so for his own future moving forward. I think he still had one more run in him at 185, he's definitely still top 5/top 10 skill level at that class. Crazy to see his old self come out, even briefly, during his retirement fight. In his prime, he was a problem for everyone at 185.

[@armandraynal740]

He retired from UFC but will probably do something else like boxing. He'd like to get big bags by koing or prolly more likely losing in a decision in a fixed fight against logan paul, you know, the waste of oxygen from some podcast called repaulsive or some crap like that

[@user-qb9fv3bf2d]

How is this fight not talked about more? Can a fight have more energy then when hurt Luke threw that hook and blasted Costa? I was so hyped for Luke.

[@Great-Dao-of-Elegance]

Just proves how competitive Luke's era was.

[@spirit8296]

him and paulo really did say “fuck it” and start throwin’

Saying F U then giving your opponent a right hand is soo damn badass

[@alexmiguel7030]

Esse amor desses dois é muito lindo 🤣

[@rehmankhalid4037]

Man that was the coldest shot when he say “fuck you” and boom right on the Costa nose. Still one of the best fight.

[@domeland2835]

Fatigue is probably the most demoralizing thing an athlete can deal with. Unlike other organized sports there are no substitutions. You either find a way to finish or give in to what your bodys screaming at you to do which is quit and Luke overcame that. Brilliant display of heart and a hell of a performance given the circumstances

[@anacarolinavieira64]

Rockhold entregou tudo nessa luta foi guerreiro demais.
