This weekend, in the co-main event of UFC 213, streaking middleweight contenders Yoel Romero and Robert Whittaker will collide for the interim UFC middleweight title, as the undisputed champ Michael Bisping is currently on the injury list with some knee troubles. There is no guarantee, however, that the winner of this interim title fight fights Bisping next, as Bisping is still keen on a much-discussed fight with former welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI was supposed to fight GSP. Why wouldn\u2019t I want to fight him? Of course, that would be big business,\u201d Bisping said on the latest episode of The MMA Hour (h\/t MMAFighting.com<\/a>). \u201cHe\u2019s a guy that will be regarded as a welterweight legend forever. I would love that fight for my legacy. We\u2019ve been over this a million times.”<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cNow, Dana is saying (Georges) doesn\u2019t want to fight. Georges is saying he does want to fight. I know that I want to fight and if we can still make the Georges thing happen, then great, I\u2019m all in.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cGeorges, if you\u2019re watching this, I\u2019ve done everything I can,\u201d Bisping said. \u201cI have called Dana White, I\u2019ve expressed my desire to fight Georges St-Pierre. Every time we speak on the phone, I say, \u2018Dana, that\u2019s all well and good, but what about me and GSP?\u2019”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

While Bisping is still interested in a fight with St-Pierre, however, he’s starting to grow tired of the constant back-and-forth for this fight, and is really just keen to defend his title.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201c(Dana) says GSP doesn\u2019t want to fight and that he wants to fight at welterweight<\/a>,\u201d said Bisping.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cGeorges, I\u2019ve done everything I can. If you want this fight to happen, get on your phone, call somebody up, send some messages \u2014 do f*cking something. I couldn\u2019t care.”<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sick of everyone saying I don\u2019t want to fight. Honestly, who I fight next? I couldn\u2019t give a shit. I really couldn\u2019t. Whether it\u2019s GSP, whether it\u2019s Yoel, whether it\u2019s Whittaker. \u2026 I\u2019m sick of all the bulls**t.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cI want to fight,\u201d Bisping continued. \u201cI\u2019ve got to fight. My knee is still very much giving me issues, but who cares? I\u2019ve got to fight. I\u2019m blowing off the cobwebs and I\u2019m getting ready. Towards the end of the year, one of those three will get it.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Who do you want to see Michael Bisping fight next?<\/p>\n
