The American, who lost the belt in June to Michael Bisping, did a photo shoot for “At Large” magazine. The athlete himself published, on his Instagram account, a preview of the photos he took. “It’s strictly business. The new issue of ‘At Large’ magazine is on newsstands,” he wrote.
Since losing the belt, the athlete has received invitations to migrate to the world fashion, which even created the possibility of participating in New York Fashion Week, between September 8th and 15th.
“It’s about getting the right fight next, one that’s worth it. I’m not going to go up there and put my body at risk if I can be paid much better in this world [of modeling]”, he recently explained to the North American podcast “The MMA Hour”.
Rockhold, 31, won the UFC title in December 2015, when he defeated Chris Weidman. However, he lost the belt in his first defense. In total, the athlete has a professional record of 18 wins and three losses.
