UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping still has high hopes to face former UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre in the very near future. If it happens, his second title defense against GSP could take place in November or December after both men recover from minor injuries.
In a recent interview with ODDSbible, Bisping announced that he has two more fights left in him, which explains why he wants GSP to be one of them for a massive payout. He is also targeting his final fight in England.
Bisping said,
If that fight [with St-Pierre] happens in November or December then after I beat him, one more fight in England. My last fight would have to be here, the fans have always got behind me, every step of the way. I’m not saying 100 percent it’ll be my final fight, but I can’t fight forever. I’m in a good place right now but who knows!
It sounds like Bisping already has another opponent in mind. The English mixed martial artist believes Robert Whittaker will knockout Yoel Romero in their interim title fight at UFC 213 on July 8 2017 in Las Vegas.
I think Whittaker will pull it off. I know everyone hypes about Romero but he’s a juicehead. He tested positive not too long ago so I’d assume he’s not on anything now as he doesn’t want to get suspended again so the more time that passes, the advantages of those steroids will wear off. Whittaker is young, he’s got good footwork and boxing, and I think he knocks him out in Round 4 or 5.
