Luke Rockhold wants to fight Costa at Ufc on Fox7

[Jawth]

Benson Henderson vs. Gilbert Melendez
Frank Mir vs. Daniel Cormier
Luke Rockhold vs. Costa Philippou
Matt Brown vs. Dan Hardy

Sounds like a great main card to me.

Definitely think he deserves it, it's not an unreasonable request

good match up for both guys but im surprised Rockhold isnt gunning for top guys since hes the SF MW champ...he could use that angle to jump over a few guys in the lower half of the top 10...then again, maybe hes exploiting boetschs inflated ranking that i assume costa steals since he beat him...maybe rockhold sees that as an "easy" path to the top...

luke wins easily

Kinda sus when a former champ wants to fight an up and comer such as Costa. I think it'd be a great challenge for Costa and would really put him on the map. But, shouldn't Luke be calling out Jacare?

Why would Luke want to fight someone he already beat?

Costa is on a five fight streak and beat a top ten guy in his last fight, don't really see a problem with this matchup.
