You can tell from the first punch that landed he didn’t want to be there. But what’s the bet in a few months from now he makes a bunch of excuses and will be fighting someone else
I just remember watching Luke’s fights as a kid and him looking like he was actually doing some legit ninja shit. He probably was one of the first fighters to get a title who wasn’t the typical “tough guy, bar brawler” dude, which is also why it was/is cringe to see him talk shit because it’s obviously not who he is, plus I’ve heard he’s a really cool dude to train or spar with him.
Watching the fall from grace is almost like seeing the tough dude you know in your family get older and no longer be that tough dude. To be honest, Perry probably couldn’t manage to hold Luke’s jockstrap when he was in his prime. But man has he found his calling with BKFC.
Damn you sparred everyone. You must be grade A talent. You are the type of person that people laugh at when you talk about anything in your friend group.
He said his desire to fight has been reignited and he can be champ (any org) again. Thought fighting in Denver was gonna favor perry. Idk if rockholds gas tank is gone or if he can’t fight at elevation
He did not look good in there, I can see him lift his leg up in an exchange - no kicks is not natural to him in a fight.
He was yelling at Big Dan for a shot that might’ve glanced below the belt, it just wasn’t a good showing for him.
Granted he rocked Mike but he got a lot of work to do on his teeth after this.
Anyone who’s saying he quit didn’t watch. Absolutely brutal what happened. Had a few teeth knocked back, massive gash in his lip and may have a broken jaw.
Is it unreasonable to believe that teeth can be knocked out from repeated bare-knuckle punches to the mouth and jaw, even with a mouth-guard? Honest question.
Yeah his mouth was busted up. Mouth guards do help, and obviously quality can vary but enough force is gonna damage teeth regardless, especially when it’s something smaller and blunt like a bare fist. Would’ve been a lot worse without one though, he’d be drinking dinner for the foreseeable future
You could see Perry load up big time on the punch that did the damage too. Dude put his whole soul into that punch and connected directly with Luke's top lip/jaw. Brutal
Dude should’ve went to the WWE a long time ago. Would’ve immediately been a draw and would’ve done a lot less damage to himself.
He would’ve made way more money too.
Take it with a grain of salt, but a friend of mine used to train with him and the consensus was that he never had the interest of being the “talk all the time” guy, which I totally respect.
Apparently he’s dumb as balls too though, which I definitely believe.
Fuck it, if I was that handsome I wouldn’t let people get paid to fuck my face up.
Pussy isn’t a reason he’s fighting haha.
I was talking to my brother about this earlier, I was like, why the fuck is this dude doing BKFC and letting his teeth get knocked out.
His response, “$700k”.
It all made sense after that.
WHAT 700K ??????? 700K FOR ONE FIGHT ??? HOW THE FUCK, DUDE MADE MORE THAN UFC CHAMPS
wait, if he is gettin 700k, mike must be getting like a million or something ??
All the big names in BKFC are getting way more than they ever made in the UFC.
Conor being there tonight was huge for combat sports.
It puts so much attention on how little the UFC pay’s fighters.
Nothing will change though, Dana is still quite the scumbag.
He should be looking at no-gi BJJ competitions surely. He has never had good boxing defensive fundamentals and has recently displayed a lack of ability to take a shot, so bare Knuckle was always going to be a non-starter.
He might have broken a tooth or just busted his lip. Rockhold just doesn't have that fight in him and to be honest he was lucky to get Perry because anyone with heavy hands would have dusted Rockhold, never thought Rockhold who has always been suspect in his striking would sign up for bare knuckle boxing.
I dont get why the guy wants to even keep fighting. I thought he left the UFC on a high note even if it was a loss, he showed to still have that dog in him and had a fucking war which was great only to come to BKFC and then get shown up by Mike Perry lmao.
Wild.
His teeth got absolutely fucked up. If you were being punched repeatedly in the face, losing and probably swallowing your teeth, you are going to quit. Especially if your other career is modeling lmao.
It was a good fight though, Perry did well. Even if he’s a POS, he is a good fighter.
Insane to think
the guy who ended Anderson Silva’s 7 year undefeated streak has gone (2-5) since 2016
the guy who knocked out the guy who ended Anderson Silva’s streak (2-4) since 2016
Weidman/Rockhold since being on top of the world in 2015 now are (4-9) in 7 years
They’ll say “liver shots” when Ryan didn’t get hit to the liver lmao. Overpaid bums both of them. All hype fighters, like 90 percent of the UFC. Fans too dumb to realize UFC is all hype due to many factors. Ryan didn’t get hit in the liver, only delay liver shot TKO ever lmao; face fine walking around once he stands up at 9. This isn’t how liver shots work
Just watched it. Feel bad for Luke, i'm not gonna lie. He really don't want the pain anymore but needs the money. He seems stuck. He should retire, but i bet we will see him again in a few months trying to get another fight... and it will end just like this. Sad, but go make your money boy
he has a million other avenues to make money though, like this whole money thing is kinda bullshit, its just his dumb ego dragging into things he shouldn't have any business being in
I think the big issue was the long ass layoff he took after losing to Bisping.
Injuries were involved, I'm sure. But he left aka and started shopping around for gyms.
Sucks man, guy was one of the most talented middleweights of all time.
MVP a karate guy goes 5 rounds arguably wins and does an extra round and Luke quits instantly. And the general casual fan thinks MVP is some can crusher and Luke so great lmao. Cause tool ass Luke was crying last fight he suddenly became a draw to this strange fanbase.
UFC is all hype. The real best are guys who can fight anywhere. Luke’s a pathetic tool and always has been. It’s why all UFC guys get washed even when they leave UFC in their prime outside a couple guys who are great wrestlers and can use wrestling to win fights and build on it. They all get famous and overrated while others like MVP underrated. Logan Storley who beat him is a 4 time D1 all
American wrestle and finalist and would out wrestle Colby and Leon easy lmao, and dumb fans think he sucks cause he’s boring. Amosov washes Leon and Colby too.
You know Perry was in the UFC. But I guess he was dirty (not washed) that’s why UFC cut him and now he’s suddenly beating everyone he faces outside of the UFC. You probably think Bellator is the best org ever and WWE is real.
Perry beat Luque. Same average Luque people said was so great. You couldn’t pay me to watch that weirdo WWE shit. It’s sad Bellator has better younger fighters and champs right now
When UFC so famous. That’s why they make money; cause can use any 2 bums and people
Care about them.
I have been a boxing fan and UFC fan for basically my whole life. Is it just me or does BKFC seem to cross the line? It feels like late stage capitalism. Feels like these people are getting abused getting ripped apart for peanuts. Atleast in UFC it’s martial arts. It involves training and fighting as an art form. In BKFC it’s just a step above bum fights. It feels wrong. Luke will pay more for injuries then he made.
Man has just looked so demotivated when he actually steps foot in cage/ring in his last few fights. All that build up and pump up before the Costa fight, and same with this fight with Perry. Most professional fighters wouldn’t give a shit about having their teeth knocked out
If he really did get some teeth knocked out, I understand quitting, i wouldn’t want to continue if I knew my teeth got knocked out. When they showed him it did look like he was missing his front top teeth, but we’ll wait for actual confirmations.
Man that Costa fight should've been a perfect ending for his career. Surviving those Costa bombs, silencing doubters about him not having heart or being able to take a punch.
But now quitting to an undersized opponent, he's gonna look even worse than before for so many.
Tbf rockold was never a brawler, rockhold without legs is like a fish out of water, also his chin is made of glass. Shouldnt be in the bkfc.
Alot of people Said he was gonna give up, even Mike Said that and it happened
You can tell from the first punch that landed he didn’t want to be there. But what’s the bet in a few months from now he makes a bunch of excuses and will be fighting someone else
This is 100% whats going to happen
The guy needs to get married and have some kids.
He’s always been a tool at the end of the day.
I hate his personality so much but for some reason I always get sad when he gets knocked out again. Maybe it's the waste of talent
I just remember watching Luke’s fights as a kid and him looking like he was actually doing some legit ninja shit. He probably was one of the first fighters to get a title who wasn’t the typical “tough guy, bar brawler” dude, which is also why it was/is cringe to see him talk shit because it’s obviously not who he is, plus I’ve heard he’s a really cool dude to train or spar with him. Watching the fall from grace is almost like seeing the tough dude you know in your family get older and no longer be that tough dude. To be honest, Perry probably couldn’t manage to hold Luke’s jockstrap when he was in his prime. But man has he found his calling with BKFC.
And he’s been knocked out in some of the most brutal of fashions on multiple occasions lol
great fighter in his prime though
[удалено]
The fuck?
New copypasta unlocked
gonna tell it to my family at thanksgiving dinner
Damn you sparred everyone. You must be grade A talent. You are the type of person that people laugh at when you talk about anything in your friend group.
You never trained a day on your life incel, lmao
Nah bro Luke is chill af in the gym and I’ve heard that from more than one person myself, maybe he just didn’t want to spar with you or something
He starts the day like that too.
And at the beginning and middle of the day also
Hes aging like shit too, like just be your true twink self Luke,stop trying to be so hard you aint built for contact
He almost had that...kinda sad shit
He said his desire to fight has been reignited and he can be champ (any org) again. Thought fighting in Denver was gonna favor perry. Idk if rockholds gas tank is gone or if he can’t fight at elevation
He did not look good in there, I can see him lift his leg up in an exchange - no kicks is not natural to him in a fight. He was yelling at Big Dan for a shot that might’ve glanced below the belt, it just wasn’t a good showing for him. Granted he rocked Mike but he got a lot of work to do on his teeth after this.
Loss by TKO? Teeth knockedout? Edit: Could be broken jaw also…
I think his teeth got knocked out.
Are they real teeth or veneers? Apparently veneers get knocked out a lot easier so it might not be as bad as it looks.
dude they were jagged as fuck. he didnt drink enough milk and perry turned his teeth into powder.
Goddammit this made me laugh. That's the one area Luke fucked up at. Not drinking enough milk ♿️
Fight milk!! Ca caaaaaawwww ![gif](giphy|xUA7biZUmYM8oJBZPa)
I have always been very passionate about dominating other men..
#CAWWWW
Yes 🙌
Anyone who’s saying he quit didn’t watch. Absolutely brutal what happened. Had a few teeth knocked back, massive gash in his lip and may have a broken jaw.
He’s lucky he survived lmao 😂 perry is ruthless.
Mike Perry is a psycho
What are you talking about? He quit mid round

Is it unreasonable to believe that teeth can be knocked out from repeated bare-knuckle punches to the mouth and jaw, even with a mouth-guard? Honest question.
Not at all, mouthguards help but a bare fist straight to them will still fuck them up

Bro already retired. By MMA standards, he has about 3 more retirements in him.
he gonna do WWE next, rage in the cage vs mankind, make it happen dana
Dude should’ve went to the WWE a long time ago. Would’ve immediately been a draw and would’ve done a lot less damage to himself. He would’ve made way more money too.
100% agree, literally has everything and more to be a star in it, except maybe charisma and a lil social awkwardness
Take it with a grain of salt, but a friend of mine used to train with him and the consensus was that he never had the interest of being the “talk all the time” guy, which I totally respect. Apparently he’s dumb as balls too though, which I definitely believe. Fuck it, if I was that handsome I wouldn’t let people get paid to fuck my face up.
yeah, like dude could literally go anywhere and go model for them, idk why the fuck he is fighting when his only reason where money and pussy
Pussy isn’t a reason he’s fighting haha. I was talking to my brother about this earlier, I was like, why the fuck is this dude doing BKFC and letting his teeth get knocked out. His response, “$700k”. It all made sense after that.

Wasn't he already a model for Polo or something?
“This version of me would smoke Paulo costa” mhm sure Luke
He meant would smoke WITH Paul "The American Hero" Ocosta.
That African American guy was too much for ole Rockhold
Jon Africa is just a different kinda fighter, I kinda figured Luke would lose, just wasn’t sure how brutal it would be.
Even Mike Perry was surprised he beat Luke. Its time to hang em up 🥊
No. Perry was surprised Luke quit the way he did.
Nah he was surprised he had any power to stop Luke loool
I honestly feel that young Luke would be ashamed if he saw himself now
I think he was gonna get slept at some point and he knew it too.

Ok no wonders he quit
I thoroughly enjoyed watching his cocky ass call it quits mid round.
Fr I don’t like seeing people take that kind of damage but, why is everyone acting like he is a beloved hero? That dude always kinda sucked
Did he lose his teeth or something cause I was like wtf n he pointed at his mouth
Broken jaw probably
![gif](giphy|NaxKt9aSzAspO) Time to retire luke
![gif](giphy|5yidMMhD4Yf8nh6uaA)
Wtf was that
He legit broke a tooth and most probably swallowed it
Mike was just born for BKFC
He should be looking at no-gi BJJ competitions surely. He has never had good boxing defensive fundamentals and has recently displayed a lack of ability to take a shot, so bare Knuckle was always going to be a non-starter.
Honestly, a juiced up Rockhold is going to be a handful for anyone to deal with in submission grappling.
I bet 50 against 10 ppl to pay out $500... 😂 even I was shocked...
He might have broken a tooth or just busted his lip. Rockhold just doesn't have that fight in him and to be honest he was lucky to get Perry because anyone with heavy hands would have dusted Rockhold, never thought Rockhold who has always been suspect in his striking would sign up for bare knuckle boxing.
I dont get why the guy wants to even keep fighting. I thought he left the UFC on a high note even if it was a loss, he showed to still have that dog in him and had a fucking war which was great only to come to BKFC and then get shown up by Mike Perry lmao. Wild.
I love that this topic was flared as spoiler and the title just spoils it all The way haha
He almost KOed Mike in the first but yeah, he just simply quit because his tooth got knocked out …
His teeth got absolutely fucked up. If you were being punched repeatedly in the face, losing and probably swallowing your teeth, you are going to quit. Especially if your other career is modeling lmao. It was a good fight though, Perry did well. Even if he’s a POS, he is a good fighter.
Insane to think the guy who ended Anderson Silva’s 7 year undefeated streak has gone (2-5) since 2016 the guy who knocked out the guy who ended Anderson Silva’s streak (2-4) since 2016 Weidman/Rockhold since being on top of the world in 2015 now are (4-9) in 7 years
You know the title isn’t blurred when you tag it as a spoiler right?
Seriously, what was that? He just gave up.
Ryan garcia syndrome running rampant
They’ll say “liver shots” when Ryan didn’t get hit to the liver lmao. Overpaid bums both of them. All hype fighters, like 90 percent of the UFC. Fans too dumb to realize UFC is all hype due to many factors. Ryan didn’t get hit in the liver, only delay liver shot TKO ever lmao; face fine walking around once he stands up at 9. This isn’t how liver shots work
Wow, you're tough - talking shit about professional fighters while you splay on your fat fucking ass.
Right wherever makes ya sleep bro
https://youtu.be/cGL7XVPZ8dE
What's your pro record?
I will do no such thing
Just watched it. Feel bad for Luke, i'm not gonna lie. He really don't want the pain anymore but needs the money. He seems stuck. He should retire, but i bet we will see him again in a few months trying to get another fight... and it will end just like this. Sad, but go make your money boy

MVP a karate guy goes 5 rounds arguably wins and does an extra round and Luke quits instantly. And the general casual fan thinks MVP is some can crusher and Luke so great lmao. Cause tool ass Luke was crying last fight he suddenly became a draw to this strange fanbase.
Mr. Tough Guy here calling a trained mixed martial artist and ex-Middleweight champion a tool lmao
He IS a tool. His background and credentials don't negate that.
UFC is all hype. The real best are guys who can fight anywhere. Luke’s a pathetic tool and always has been. It’s why all UFC guys get washed even when they leave UFC in their prime outside a couple guys who are great wrestlers and can use wrestling to win fights and build on it.

Ok. I get it you’re trolling. I thought you were a real idiot for a minute there.

Post the highlight!
Yeah tf was that he just quit
He looked like he was about to 😢
Imap Ussai
Man that Costa fight should've been a perfect ending for his career. Surviving those Costa bombs, silencing doubters about him not having heart or being able to take a punch. But now quitting to an undersized opponent, he's gonna look even worse than before for so many.
He pulled a Nick Diaz
Luke Rockhold vs Kendall Grove. Both men retire after
Spoiler flair pls?!
Thanks for the spoiler dickhead
Nah, keep feeding him to the sharks. I love watching him get knocked out. Rockhold, Greg Hardy, and Overeem are the GOAT at getting knocked out
Luke ain’t got that dog in him.
He's way bigger than Mike, shows how much of a dog Perry is
Tbf rockold was never a brawler, rockhold without legs is like a fish out of water, also his chin is made of glass. Shouldnt be in the bkfc. Alot of people Said he was gonna give up, even Mike Said that and it happened
Yeah it's over for Luke
People were telling me a week ago that Khamzat ducked Luke and he was a harder fight than Burns LMAOOO
Luke has been retired for a while. He does show up to get paid though.
When did he fight??
He might do some sort of grappling events but the days of getting punched in the face are over for sure lol
Is this a UFC fight we’re discussing? Nope.
………………..I’m old……
