It's not unreasonable to think that Rockhold beats Perreira. Obviously he has to take him down to do so, but it's not like Perreira has been beating ground experts left and right.
I mean, if he could get Pereira to the ground it would be over pretty fast, Luke has arguably the best top game in MMA. He likely gets ko'd as fast as Strickland did tho.
Rough times for Luke.
Paulo broke his nose, Mike his teeth and now he is asking for more.
It seems like he has a good plastic surgeon and a good dentist, now he needs a good psychologist to put his delusions away and he can finally retire in peace and enjoy life.
Yeah, Rockhold looks to have aged rapidly. He got his teeth knocked out by Platinum, he had a sloppy, gassed decision loss to Costa and said he was too old for this anymore. But here's the thing, Rockhold isn't married, he's got no kids, he has tons of money, he was a former UFC and Strikeforce champ. He hangs around the MMA and combat sports scene, he will fight again, he's going to delusionally believe in himself. It's just how it goes. Rockhold has always been a pretty ego driven guy.

I have this weird feeling we'll look back at Pereira's UFC career in the future and he'll have a UFC record of like 5-9 with submission and TKO losses and we'll go wow he really swooped in at the right time and managed to grab the gold for a moment
