Bisping: GSP camp reached out about fight
Michael Bisping: “I actually had some people reach out to me and say ‘Georges St-Pierre is interested in fighting you.’ Yes, some people from his camp.
Mixed martial arts is tough. The rise to the top is endlessly bloody and for very nearly all impossible. And no sooner are the fans screaming “LONG LIVE THE KING,” then they add “WHO IS THE KING FIGHTING TO THE DEATH NEXT??!?”

New UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping is angling for his first title defense to be a rematch with Dan Henderson, or a superfight with former UFC weltwerweight champion Georges St-Pierre. Hendo is game, and says win lose or draw, it will be his last fight. And now during an appearance on Fox Sport’s Jay and Dan, Bisping said GSP is interested.
“I actually had some people reach out to me and say ‘Georges St-Pierre is interested in fighting you,'” said Bisping. “Yes, some people from his camp. I was like ‘Really, wow. Okay.’
“Tell him to sign the dotted line, just likeHenderson, if he really wants to come out of retirement.”
