It would appear that former K-1 World Grand Prix champion and Muay Thai legend turned mixed martial artist Gokhan Saki would like to take on former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping.
“The Count” has not competed inside the octagon since going on a two fight losing streak. Bisping first lost his middleweight title to Georges St-Pierre back at UFC 217.
Secondly, Kelvin Gastelum managed to knock out the fighter at UFC Fight Night 122. Since then, Bisping has revealed an interest in facing off inside the octagon for one final retirement fight if the proper opponent presents himself.
“The Count” also appears interested in moving up in weight, leaving a series of new opponents available for the former middleweight champion. Gokhan Saki made his big octagon debut back at UFC Fight Night 117, earning a first round knockout over Henrique da Silva.
Now Saki has taken to Twitter to call out Bisping. First, Bisping asked his fans which fight makes the most sense for him.
“I asked ufc, they asked me. Honestly, who makes sense? Serious question? Up and comer? Old legend? I have no idea”
