UFC President Dana White thinks highly of UFC Middleweight Champion Michael Bisping.
In a recent interview with MMAjunkie, White said he likes Bisping because he never turns down fights.
“Bisping does not turn down fights. He does not. So I have a lot of respect for Mike,” White said. I like guys, you’re in the fight business. You should be willing to fight anybody, anywhere,
“You’re in the fight business. You should be willing to fight anybody, anywhere, anytime. Especially if you’re the champion or one of the top (expletive) five guys in the world. You shouldn’t be turning down fights with anybody. Bisping does not.”
White went on to say Bisping will fight the winner of Yoel Romero and Robert Whittaker in his next title defense. He also talked about his relationship with the current UFC middleweight champion.
“(Bisping) is in line for the winner,” White said. “Bisping’s never turned down a fight, this guy. Me and Bisping go back a long way from his season of The Ultimate Fighter and I’ve done a lot of things for Michael Bisping, and Michael Bisping’s done a lot of things for me.
“We have a really good relationship and we communicate a lot, even when we’re both not really happy with the situation and what’s going on. Me and Michael will get this done.”
