Three years out of the Octagon did not help Luke Rockhold, who suffered a decision loss (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) in Saturday night's co-main event of UFC 278 against Paulo Costa. In 15 minutes of action, Rockhold only tallied 57 total strikes compared to that of Costa's 106 (73 significant strikes). After the contest, Rockhold announced he was hanging up his gloves and retiring from the sport of mixed martial arts.--Matt Bricker

Returning to the Octagon for the first time in just over three years, Luke Rockhold (16-5) steps into the co-main-event slot this Saturday to face a very dangerous striker and finisher in Paulo Costa. Even before his departure from the sport in 2017, Rockhold had lost three of his last four bouts, with all three being knockouts/TKOs. DraftKings sees Rockhold as the big underdog with a salary of $7,500. Throughout his UFC career, Rockhold averages 81.6 fantasy points per contest. This is a matchup we would recommend avoiding Rockhold in.--Matt BrickerRead More News
