\u201cBodybagz\u201d is headed to Real American Freestyle (RAF).<\/p>\n
Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Middleweight champion Luke Rockhold<\/strong> is set to compete in a Catchweight wrestling match against current top UFC 185-pound contender Joe Pyfer<\/strong> at RAF 13, which goes down Sat., Sept. 19, 2026, inside Watsco Center in Miami, Florida.<\/p>\n The wrestling promotion announced the matchup on social media.<\/p>\n Rockhold has had a tough go in combat sports over the past eight years.<\/p>\n He is currently 0-1 in the promotion and will be looking for his first win on the mats.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Pyfer will be making his RAF debut when he steps onto the mat next month. \u201cBodybagz\u201d was most recently in action against another former Middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya<\/strong>, knocking him out in the main event of UFC Seattle (watch highlights)<\/p>\n So, yeah, his confidence is probably doing just fine.<\/p>\n RAF 13 will be headlined by Covington vs. Belal Muhammad<\/strong>, but before we get to Miami, the ultra-stacked RAF 12 is scheduled for Aug. 22 in Cleveland, Ohio.<\/p>\n Rockhold is still looking for his first RAF win. Pyfer is looking to add another former UFC champion to his combat sports resume.<\/p>\n Not a bad little wrestling match.<\/p>\n
