“Poatan Didn’t Care About That Goofy S***”: Despite Shattering Alex Pereira’s Staggering Achievement, Luke Rockhold Mocked Online by Ruthless Fans

The Karate Combat promotion recently held its KC40 event in Miami and former UFC champion Luke Rockhold was in attendance. The American and former Karate Combat middleweight champion Ross Levine attempted the Power Cube challenge and broke the previous record set by Alex Pereira. Many fans have shared their reactions to it.

Luke Rockhold announced his retirement after his UFC 278 loss against Paulo Costa. Furthermore, he then transitioned to bare-knuckle fighting in BKFC but failed to make an impact in his first fight against Mike Perry. Now, it seems like Rockhold may have found another promotion to sink his teeth in.

He joined the group of fighters who had been trying to set some records on the cube.

Rockhold attempted a strong body kick and managed to get a score of 157,643. Furthermore, Karate Combat’s own, Ross Levine, made his attempt and garnered a score of 124,171. Both fighters broke ‘Poatan’s record. The fans on social media took notice of this kicking extravaganza in a post shared by the promotion on Twitter.
