That rubbing his bloodied face all over PC's face was like a horror movie scene. Great fight between two warriors. LR nose was full of blood early doors, affecting his breathing, at times he was out on his feet with exhaustion, but man did he soldier on. Luke the Lionheart!
I actually used to hate Luke Rockhold because of his arrogance, but I actually feel sorry for him now, and want him to win. His fall from grace since Bisping KO'D him and took the world championship from him, has been dramatic and quick to say the least. He showed true grit there though!!!
He's still young, izzy jus outclassed him, Marvin jus has a head full of concrete and rob is so fast. . But that wheel kick damn he has some of the best kicks, front leg high kick no switch is so good
But he isn’t, so who cares, that’s like saying if cm punk had better striking and wrestling and grappling he would be best in the world, like tf, pointless comment
@@olenwilsonSFhe probably gained more fans respect losing this fight than Costa did for winning. I really don’t know how you can hate a guy after bleeding like that for us
@@jakenbake9878 I’m not hating on him for bleeding for glory of the sport. But, where is the GLORY in wipin your blood on your opponents face like a lil girl, simply because you are frustrated at yourself for not being in appropriate shape to get the W?
@@olenwilsonSF I’ve never seen a little girl hold someone down and rub blood on their enemy’s. That’s called psychological warfare and that’s definitely dude stuff.
@@lukes5631 I clearly watched the same fight as you as I am commenting on the same video, I have watched Rockhold fight enough times to know is cardio isn't and never has been the greatest. He was gassed after the first minute.
He definitely got rag dolled ,never seen a fighter look so disappointed after getting punched in the face ,and tossed around. Great fight, the blood smearing was something else, I'm not sure what.
Rockholds fall from grace has been nothing short of spectacular. Since Bisping KO'D him and took the belt of him, his arrogance rapidly disappeared. Now I've went from wanting all of his opponents to smash his smug face in, to actually feeling sorry for him and kinda rooting for the guy. He showed true grit there, he definitely is a warrior and I actually wish him all the best now. Paulo Costa is no joke, he's one scary dude, and for the size of his muscles he's got brilliant cardio!
Luke really pissed me off this fight .. and showed the importance of road work and conditioning, he was the definition of fake fit … he looked in shape but he really wasn’t
You ever go for a jog in Utah and it’s your first time being that high? It fucking sucks. Been training for YEARS and one day in Utah I was outta breath. Wasn’t even running just jogging
You have been my idol Luke. You are quite likable. Now its time you quit while in one piece. I love you, l respect you, l dont want to see you like this again, please. Da Costa surely was linient on you. He respects you too
I think Costa was asking Rocco if he was OK at the end of the fight. Rocco said "Yeah I'm OK" after Costa asked him something. Rocco was worn-out. He didn't have the conditioning for this fight.
Luke did not have the cardio maybe the cut but body shots also but constantly leg kicks and spinning stuff and never could catch a second wind or pace himself
Altitude... fight took place a high altitude. Luke not trained for that, oxygen is much thinner. Of course the busted nose did not help, and those early rib shots from Costa took a toll as well.
this was the first fight in Utah and I dont think he was ready for that on top of a broken nose. Costa got those Brazilian genetics tho they got different air or something that way xD
A lot of people to this day think Luke was trying to spread his blood on Costa's face. Luke's face was so bloody that it got into his eyes and he was practically blind. When he is rubbing his face on Costa he is trying to wipe the blood of his eye socket with out using his hands. When Luke is on top of Costa he can't even see him.
6:45 can we take a moment to recognize that Rogan called a Tornado Kick a “360 roundhouse kick” … this is the same dude that called a bicycle kick, a “low kick that turns into a head kick” until like UFC 250. Dude doesn’t know fighting, he’s a sales person for the UFC.
those kicks are basically the same thing, he's live commentating a fight in front 100k people i mean i'd imagine he couldn't see which foot he landed on so he'll make mistakes just as all commentators do, he holds black belts in both Taekwondo and BJJ but yeah you probably know more than him in the art of fighting
It frustrates me when great fighters don't train at altitude before a fight at altitude, then gas out during the fight ! It's so fucking obvious, but some of them just don't get it. Also looking at you Mr Valesquez!!
Luke honestly had some moments in the fight. But he was just on the back foot the whole fight. Hard to win a fight on decisiom when u are the one on the defensive the whole time
The ref was the MVP of this fight.
"The fingers, the low blows, I'm not having that shit..!"
That rubbing his bloodied face all over PC's face was like a horror movie scene.
Great fight between two warriors.
LR nose was full of blood early doors, affecting his breathing, at times he was out on his feet with exhaustion, but man did he soldier on.
Luke the Lionheart!
He looks like Nic Cage in ending scene of Mandy 😄

Esse borracha é muito fraco,nunca será campeão do ufc,um borrachinha mesmo.
Those 4 lefts he threw in the 3rd saying fuck you on 2 of em was badass for Luke. Rocked him 3x
Holy shit ! Did he just fight club spew blood all over Costa’s face
Sure did!
COSTA is always entertaining.
So true win or lose he's putting on a show no matter what
Cannot wait to see Costa square up with Strickland.
costa getting retired by strickland
Costa got fked
If Paulo Costa had been stronger in grappling he could have had more success in fights against Adesanya, Whitaker and Vettori
He's still young, izzy jus outclassed him, Marvin jus has a head full of concrete and rob is so fast. . But that wheel kick damn he has some of the best kicks, front leg high kick no switch is so good
But he isn’t and he never it’s all ifs buts why’s and when’s it means nothing ….
But he isn’t, so who cares, that’s like saying if cm punk had better striking and wrestling and grappling he would be best in the world, like tf, pointless comment
not easy to take any of them down
@@nateegan-og6puquit crying lol
Incredible fight 🔥🔥
Costas lead leg high kicks no switch are so good
"You don't know where I've been, Paulo. You don't know where I've been!"
Lol
Luke was exhausted that entire fight. He really gutted that one out.
It was at high altitude
Yea. Gutted out an ugly big L LOSS

Luke saying FU with blood dripping from mouth and out of gas and spinning into costas guard at end is pretty epic . Dramatic.
UFC 301 is taking place this Saturday, May 4th 2024. This fight is from UFC 278. UFC 302 is scheduled for July
Rockhold's cardio is shocking for a professional MMA fighter. He was blowing out of his arse by the end of round 1.
He couldn't breathe properly after he took that shot in round 1. I don't know what fight you were watching.
Bruh for a middle old aged man he fight really good
@@lukes5631 I clearly watched the same fight as you as I am commenting on the same video, I have watched Rockhold fight enough times to know is cardio isn't and never has been the greatest. He was gassed after the first minute.
@@ATOJARhe broke his nose bro
Elevation, not only Rockhold was tired early.
It was dirty for the UFC to put Rockhold at altitude.
Why? How about Paulo Costa?
This is not UFC 302, it's UFC 278. Reported.
Costa would do great if he focused on grappling. Dude is built like an olympian demi god, rockhold is a way more talented striker. Great fight
Se é tão talentoso pq que não venceu?
Costa used to absolutely brutalize people in the stand up.
@@diassizcaraubas2502sai dae xarope ele venceu essa luta geral nos 🇺🇸 curte o borrachinha só no Brasil por motivos políticos vcs embaçam na do cara
Enjoyable fight
Sach a great fight! Real WARRIORS
So clear to see that LR wanted to win, and he put it all on the line to try to get there….that’s all we ever ask for. Good fight Champ
love 3 round. Its one of the creazyest rounds in this sport.
EU ADORO ESSE CANAL ❤❤❤❤❤
DW said it best: what those two men went through out there is something the rest of us will thankfully never know about
Costa ground game is so good man
Bom lutator❤
Luke was completely exhausted and really dug as deep as possible but just not enough in the tank
Verdadeiros gladiadores!
BEST FIGHT IVE SEEN SO FAR
Amazing battle
Amazing fight!!
Rockhold was thinking if he can't beat Costa with his fist, he'll beat him with bloodborne pathogens😂
Lmao
Wow what a fight
this was such a great fight
legendary fight
Exhaustion is a terrible feeling, but while you’re getting punched in the face as well…? No thanks. Luke is a warrior for surviving all 3 rounds.
This was an old fight long ago. Looks like it was reuploaded.
What's your point, there's a lot of old fights not on CZcams.
@@Phantom-wu9su 🤣you trynna tell me Mike Tyson retired or something?
You don't know where i been lou!!
Why I love about Costa
Was clenching my ass there a few times,great fight.
Lol
Epic...
9:02 That groin punch by Costa was personal.
Huge punch right into the nutz lol
🫨he went
Luke rockhold is the most complete and skilled middleweight ever. Incredible creativity both on his standup and his ground game.
Ref trying to motivate Costa speaking Spanish to him 😠😂
Bel combattimento,due fisici incredibili ma Costa è una roccia!
Bloodbrothers. Great Fight, great Warriors.
Can you say "man-handled"? Never thought I'd see Rockhold get treated like this....
He definitely got rag dolled ,never seen a fighter look so disappointed after getting punched in the face ,and tossed around. Great fight, the blood smearing was something else, I'm not sure what.
Beltran yelling in Spanish and Costa's like "Dude I'm Brazilian" 😂😂😂
Коста машина крутой бой
This fight looks faster than normal speed😮
Now this is UFC’s/ mma fighting
o melhor
❤
Referee talking to Costa in Spanish 😂
😂
Rockholds fall from grace has been nothing short of spectacular. Since Bisping KO'D him and took the belt of him, his arrogance rapidly disappeared.

Once his chest gets up a little more it’s game over!!! LUKE!!! But you did GREAT CHAMP!!!👍
if i remember correctly they weren't prepared for the altitude i believe this was the first fight in Utah and they learned alot from it
Costa is such a monster .. wish he knew jujitsu
Best Luke I’ve seen in years! 🤙💯
Luke really pissed me off this fight .. and showed the importance of road work and conditioning, he was the definition of fake fit … he looked in shape but he really wasn’t
I mean to be fair they were fighting at Elevation in Utah. I’ve ran in Flagstaff and that shit tires you out.
He’s just trying to make a few more paydays. His legacy is behind him 🤙 good in his prime tho 💯👍
You ever go for a jog in Utah and it’s your first time being that high? It fucking sucks. Been training for YEARS and one day in Utah I was outta breath. Wasn’t even running just jogging
You have been my idol Luke. You are quite likable. Now its time you quit while in one piece. I love you, l respect you, l dont want to see you like this again, please. Da Costa surely was linient on you. He respects you too
Best ref in the business
17:00
my favorite part😂😂😂
👍👍👍💪💪💪👊👊👊🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
costa is going to be a nightmare for Sean .
👍👍👍
I think Costa was asking Rocco if he was OK at the end of the fight. Rocco said "Yeah I'm OK" after Costa asked him something. Rocco was worn-out. He didn't have the conditioning for this fight.
rockhold said after he had an injury that limited his raining before the fight
It was actually the Utah altitude.
Luke did not have the cardio maybe the cut but body shots also but constantly leg kicks and spinning stuff and never could catch a second wind or pace himself
Altitude... fight took place a high altitude. Luke not trained for that, oxygen is much thinner. Of course the busted nose did not help, and those early rib shots from Costa took a toll as well.
this was the first fight in Utah and I dont think he was ready for that on top of a broken nose. Costa got those Brazilian genetics tho they got different air or something that way xD
This fight was pretty close. Besides the finger to the eyes and low blow. They drained their gas tank pretty fast. Which wasn't fun to watch.
What a great fight both these warriors are chiseled out of granite
Yup give him time to recover
Damn re watching this shit. That was a war
My costs always brings the fight
respect to Rockhold that was gutsy
This fight is incredibly good
God bless you Luke❤
Bizarre ce combat
1:12
man idk who i want to win sean or paulo, hard choice
Costa falou ,vou te jantar hoje Luke kkkk
Costa baby of the Adesanya
Adesanysa Dog whisperer and baby of Alex
des jeito vc não sai de um mata leao
2 in a row with good fighters. Great f fight!!!! 💪 💪 💪 💪
락홀드의 얼굴문지르기는 언제 봐도 즐겁다.이번엔 왜 얼굴문지르기가 슬로우로 안나오나??
I'm pretty sure Luke was knocked out three or four times in that first exchange. The man's a legend.
7:59 ESTAS BIEN!! ESTAS BIEN!!
A lot of people to this day think Luke was trying to spread his blood on Costa's face. Luke's face was so bloody that it got into his eyes and he was practically blind. When he is rubbing his face on Costa he is trying to wipe the blood of his eye socket with out using his hands. When Luke is on top of Costa he can't even see him.
Hey DC!!!.. Does Rockhold want this fight on the ground?😂

IM LOOKIN FOR THE GUY WHO ASKED B )

커스타는 꽤 잘하는 선수 이고
루크는 전설 이다
bulked up on outside but heart stays small
That was awesome!! Not the cleanest of fights technically, but grit slays the fans!💪😎👍
Luke was going quiet into that good night…
Кто старался победить, тот победил
It frustrates me when great fighters don't train at altitude before a fight at altitude, then gas out during the fight ! It's so fucking obvious, but some of them just don't get it. Also looking at you Mr Valesquez!!
Luke rockhold smeering his blood on Paulo costa face is just brutal😭😭
Paulo Costa, victories only above 40 years......2-3 on UFC.
Luke honestly had some moments in the fight. But he was just on the back foot the whole fight. Hard to win a fight on decisiom when u are the one on the defensive the whole time
Luke forgot to train cardio . Completely spent within the first minute
They were in Utah elevation
@@reflex6907 and Luke's nose broke in the first round too, if I recall correctly; couldn't have helped
@@reflex6907 even more reason to train for cardio endurance
Why is Beltran speaking Spanish? He may as well be speaking Italian or French.
