Former UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold is not a fan of the Nelk Boys.
During an interview before his UFC 278 fight against Paolo Costa, Rockhold told CBS sports that he disliked the UFC’s partnership with te “degenerate” Nelk Boys.

“The world’s going to sh*t. Incorporating Full Send into the UFC is just the dumbest thing ever. I see these guys around here and I’m like ‘Why the f**k are these degenerate kids a part of our f**king company?’ Why is Dana White – because he’s trying to bite into popular culture? Popular culture is going down the drain and it’s bringing the whole world down the drain. People just need to wake up.”
On Wednesday, Rockhold confronted Nelk Boys reporter OG Shawny Mack for handing his teammate Marlon Vera a Mexican mask during a bit for a video that apparently offended the Ecuadorian Vera.
“You gotta do your homework, This degenerate culture of Barstool Sports and Full Send, you can’t approach Chito and give him a Mexican mask and ask about his culture, his culture is Ecuadorian motherf*cker. Do your homework.”

Remember the Full Send “reporter” who got slapped by Nate for talking about Maximov?
Well, Luke Rockhold confronted him today for bringing a NACHO LIBRE mask to Chito who’s Ecuadorian.
