Luke Rockhold

UFC 221 is headlined by an interim middleweight title fight featuring former division title holder Luke Rockhold taking on perennial contender Yoel Romero.

With that said, only Rockhold is eligible to win the interim belt, as Romero failed to make the championship weight.
 
Luke Rockhold was last seen in action at September’s UFC Fight Night 116 event in Pittsburgh, where he scored a second-round submission victory over former WSOF champion David Branch.
 
Rockhold has gone 6-1 over his last seven octagon appearances with his only loss in that time coming to former champion Michael Bisping via knockout.
 
Meanwhile, Yoel Romero has not competed since July’s UFC 213 event in  Las  Vegas, where he suffered a unanimous decision loss to Robert Whittaker in a bout for the promotions interim middleweight championship.
 
Prior to that, Romero was riding an eight-fight win streak which included knockout victories over Chris Weidman, Lyoto Machida and Derek Brunson.
 
In the co-main event of UFC 221 heavyweight knockout artist Mark Hunt will take on surging division contender Curtis Blaydes.
 
Hunt is coming off a fourth-round TKO victory over Derrick Lewis.
 
Meanwhile, Blaydes has gone 8-1 in his mixed martial arts career, with his lone loss coming to Francis Ngannou via TKO.
