Is Rockhold the Most Exciting Fighter in the UFC Right Now?

[LikeItIs]

His fights aren't bad.

His personality is about as exciting as naval lint.

Rockhold is a straight savage. Dude can be an arrogant prick at times but I love his style of fighting.

 

[rurouni]

Rockhold is a straight killer but is as arrogant as can be and will never be a long term champion because of it.

and poor stand up

Just realized that rockhold never went to decision in the ufc
But I don't thin he's the most exciting fighter in the ufc.i think barboza is.

Rockhold finishes. Or gets finished. Only exception are his 2 times going to the cards. But exciting, not so much. He is primarily a counter striker as far as stand up, which is not an exciting style in truth. Hes a finisher. A "technical striker" and good on the ground, very very athletically superior to mostly everybody in the whereabouts of his division, so he can get by on that (probably partly why he's lost twice in fights because of showing up uninterested), but he isn't really a come forward agressive type of kamikaze type or anything like that.

It isn't even about finishes. Finishes aren't entertaining by default and going to the cards isn't boring or not entertaing by default. One example is Bisping. I don't think he is really better then Rockhold at all, but his fights are usually more entertaining, even considering he is the shady "desicion going your way" king/g.o.a.t.
