Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping is seemingly looking to make a jump to the light heavyweight division, if the proper fight offer comes his way. With rumors of fellow former middleweight title holder Luke Rockhold making a jump into the division, Bisping has come forward with a statement.
Rumors are swirling that Luke Rockhold and tough light heavyweight contender Alexander Gustafsson will be facing off for an interim title fight following Daniel Cormier’s shift to fight Stipe Miocic in the heavyweight division. Bisping would later go to Twitter to add to the rumor.
“Honestly………… I don’t know. But, I hear the last person I knocked out may be fighting for an interim belt. If he wins I’m in. I’m 225 right now and pretty ripped. Never making 185 again.”
