UFC middleweight champion Chris Weidman is gearing up to defend his belt against Luke Rockhold at UFC 194.

There’s been plenty of light back and forth between the two fighters, taking shots at each other here and there. In the recent episode of The MMA Hour, the champ put Rockhold on blast, calling him insecure and saying he knows he can’t win.

Check it out!

“I’m excited to go out there and just really run through Luke. I just really cannot imagine myself losing to him. I know he’ll talk the same way, but I think he’s just kind of faking it. I don’t think he really believes he can beat me, but he knows what to say.

“These guys know in the weight (class), I think they’re starting to get it. And he’s one of the guys who knows. I think he’s a little insecure about himself, and I feel like that’s why he has to pump his chest up all the time and go a little overboard. I think he’s just insecure and I think he knows what’s coming. I think he’d much rather be fighting anyone else besides me.”
