One of the most respected fighters ever at 185. He’s faced the best of the best and carried himself with nothing but class through it all. Even in a razor-close decision that didn’t go his way, he remained gracious. A true professional, a champion, and a staple of the middleweight division for over a decade. The game’s better because Rob is in it.

Mad respect to Bobby Knuckles. This man took that close L like a champion—still the gold standard at 185 for professionalism and class. Never makes excuses, always back in the lab grinding. Real fighters move like this 👊

People use the word washed so loosely. He’ll be back

I respect fighters like Whittaker who takes the most challenging fight without bitching like Ilia & Jones.

MMA is the truest sport. It is literally you in your underwear battling another guy in his underwear. Every flaw is on display. Bobby Knuckles is a warrior.

Big fan of Rob, but it’s time to retire. The new generation is bigger, stronger, and faster. Rob stopped evolving—no kicks, no grappling, just slow splits. Plus, his durability and cardio can’t keep up anymore.

And he is a true MW - doesn’t cut 85 pounds to make weight and never dodged a fight !! His resume is epic .. still think he won 3-2.. a taller guy just held him up preventing a stand up …

Washed and rinsed. Just retire and do commentary work for aussie media, and take care his growing family. Not good enough to fight for the title again

I think too many fighters dispense way too much energy pre fight. Growling, yelling, deep breathing, head and chest slapping, etc.. Poor knuckles was gassed by round 3.

It's time for him to retire. It's been 5+ years since he has really been in a winning roll
