Luke Rockhold isn’t at all impressed by the Michael Bisping vs. Georges St-Pierre main event at UFC 217. Rockhold spoke with MMAjunkie for a new interview and expressed his disdain for the fight. Highlights are below:

On being willing to step in if the fight falls through: “I’m (expletive) tired of waiting. I’m not (expletive) around. I’m tired of this (expletive). I’m tired of talking about it. I’m coming with a vengeance.”

On St-Pierre getting a middleweight title shot: “I think Georges St-Pierre is a joke. I still don’t have faith that Georges makes it to the fight, so we’ll see what happens.”

On his UFC FIght Night 116 opponent David Branch: “I don’t really give a (expletive) about people that talk behind sunglasses and a beanie. He can talk all he wants – it’s going to be fight time next week, and he’ll find out where he belongs.”
