A true warrior always has some respect for his opponent...for they are on the same path and need each other in order to do what they do ..

So no matter the hostility at the end of the day...real recognize real...and thats what we see with these two they understand its war but at the same time there just a pair of warriors just trying to live alittle longer

They’ve done enough media now to where Luke feels comfortable selling the fight and knows platinum won’t shut him down. It’s like they’ve both accepted that Luke is not a talker but Perry respects him for trying and obviously respects the fact he’s a former champion. It’s been pleasant to watch unfold

This is fact. Luke isn’t really a talker at all, both are veterans and I can tell there is a respect that has been earned between the two. It’s almost to the point where they both know it’s time to make money and I can see them being friendly towards each other afterwards.
 
I didn’t think it was possible for me to root for mike perry. But then he signed to fight Luke Rockhold..

it’s a crazy world

The fact his wikipedia paged is changed almost daily to call him an African fighter is just icing on the cake.
 
It’s amazing all those legends are happy with the payday yet Francis a guy who’s been fighting 5 years isn’t happy

So fucking weird to see Luke in Bare Knuckle. Thought he’d be in Bellator for sure, he’s friends with Scott Coker.

I sure hope he goes there next! Luke is my long-term comeback kid first pick, so he better get back into MMA after he starches Platinum Perry (that I really, really appreciate, especially for breaking MVP's face in their black on black crime main-event), and Bellator would be a good place for that.

(I just hope he doesn't run into Mousasi, or for the first time in my life I'll have to root against Luke)

PFL is too risky, Bellator can feed him a few guys to build his confidence back, and then when he finally takes the belt there, I can brag about about having known all along (at least until someone ask me to post my bet slips if I was sooo sure or gtfo).

Seriously, if I was to predict who the next Mark Hunt/Andrei Arlovski/Robbie Lawler/Jorge Masvidal, aka a guy who can make a comeback to the elite level of the sport after falling down to journeyman level, Luke would be my choice.

As happy as the Bisping KO made everyone here, had the two had a tie-breaker right after, the rightful favorite would have still been Luke.
And his last UFC fight against local favorite Paulo Costa was a banger
And his UFC losses were all to elite guys on great runs (championship run Jan, TRT Vitor, championship run Bisping, friggin' Romero between his 2 UFC title shots...)

Before the Costa bout, Luke also lost a grappling bout at Polaris 12 to Nick Rodriguez in a pretty boring affair, but Nicky Rod is a badass BJJ player (he's considered boring because he turns BJJ matches into wrestling bouts, but the dude is still very, very good) so it's not like he was submitted by Black Beast or what.

So yeah, been on the Salty Bandwagon since Strikeforce, and I ain't bout to chance me ways

Can't wait for BKFC 41 to start

Lots of cool fights with our favorite MMA veterans <mma4>

I had kind given up on this org, because what got me hooked at the start were the washed up MMA dudes having a go at each others or against pro boxers without gloves, but when BKFC started to breed their own crop of "bare knuckle boxers from the start", I just didn't have the motivation to keep up with those dudes.

I just wanted more Artem Lobov vs Paulie Malignaggi type of main-events, with a Phil Baroni vs Chris Leben & Johnny Hendricks vs Dakota Cochrane side-dishes (I just realized that those last 2 didn't even take place under the BKFC banner, which sadly casts some doubts on the legitimacy of these contests <DCrying> )

Anyway, this event has shade of early BKFCs, which were full of recently retired MMA stars, so cash ya all on the PBP thread!
 
Vicious AF.

Can't believe they didn't cancel the fight for that.

Big respect to Perry for overlooking it.
 
Why is Luke fighting bare knuckle?

And who is that ugly dude facing off against that poor White girl at the beginning?
