Weidman: Bisping would be my easiest fight in five years
Weidman doesn’t know if he’ll be given the next title shot, but he is more than happy to fight Bisping and believes it would be an ‘easy’ fight for him.
Today former champion Chris Weidman spoke to MMAJunkie about a possible future showdown with Michael Bisping, the current UFC middleweight champion.
Weidman was originally scheduled to fight Luke Rockhold at UFC 199, but when he withdrew due to injury Bisping was called up for the shot and defeated Rockhold in the first round.
Weidman doesn’t know if he’ll be given the next title shot, but he is more than happy to fight Bisping and believes it would be an ‘easy’ fight for him:
I’ll be ready to go pretty soon here and I’ll be fighting at (Madison Square Garden) for sure, Weidman said. I want to fight for the title, that’s obviously where it’s at, that’s where the moneys at. I want to be able to provide for my family and Bisping would be the easiest fight I’ve had in probably five years. Why not win the title and win a lot of money and have an easy fight all in one time?
