“What he thinks or doesn’t think doesn’t interest me. It's funny to me. I know my limitations, I can't shoot. In my videos, I just throw a kick and move, that's what I can do”, claimed Rockhold, in an interview with the program “The MMA Hour” (USA), which he concluded by saying that the confrontation could take place in July.

PUBLICITY:

“I don’t see much movement in the division, I swear. Bisping is running around and looking for fights. Jacaré is in the same place as always. Anderson came back and did his. I don't see anything new. Jacaré doesn't want to wait too long, so I'd love to face him and end our problems. I don't see any other option. If the time works for him, I think July (is a good date), I think it works for everyone”, he added.
