Quickly fades in UFC debut
Rohskopf lost to Austin Hubbard via TKO (doctor's stoppage) at 5:00 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It was a concerning effort on multiple fronts for Rohskopf in his UFC debut. He looked excellent in Round 1 on the strength of his grappling but quickly gassed out in Round 2. His striking defense was atrocious, and Rohskopf looked the part of a fighter who accepted this bout about ten days ago. His corner was giving him a pep talk in between Rounds 2 and 3, but Rohskopf informed referee Mark Smith he could no longer continue. The fight was clearly trending in the wrong direction for the newcomer, but it was a surprising decision given the fact the bout was almost certainly tied at a round apiece. Rohskopf won't turn 26 years of age until September, but he appeared in over his head on Saturday. It's possible, but not guaranteed, the UFC takes another look at what Rohskopf can bring to the table with a full fight camp.
