Gianluca Rocca staged a humorous performance at the weigh-ins before his fight with Manuel Lancioli at Cage Warriors 204. Rocca held up a sign with a message explaining that it was his girlfriend's birthday and asking viewers to help explain to her why he was standing semi-naked with another man in underwear instead of being at her birthday party. The sign concluded with birthday wishes to his girlfriend, adding a lighthearted moment to the pre-fight proceedings. The stunt showcased Rocca's personality outside the cage while acknowledging the conflict between his fighting commitments and personal life.
