After his recent Karate Combat win, Luke Rockhold went ahead and called out none other than the MMA legend Lyoto Machida…
For a fight in Karate Combat’s unique pit!
The two fighters previously met in the UFC in 2015, where Rockhold emerged victorious by submitting Machida.
During his post-fight interview in Dubai, Rockhold reiterated his desire to face Machida in a rematch:
There’s only one man I wanna fight in this pit, and that’s Lyoto Machida.
And you’re lucky because they don’t allow elbows, so no more f*cking nightmares about the elbows.Bring it. Let’s see what you got, let’s see what your paychecks look like.
Bring out that checkbook. Lyoto,I know you need a payday, motherf*cker.
Come get it.
And, well, it appears that Machida is game!
He responded to Rockhold’s challenge:
The Dragon is already breathing fire.
The Dragon is already breathing fire since they announced this challenge.Now, get to the right numbers, let’s get a date, and see when we’re having this dog fight!
