The UFC boss has decided not to wait any longer on GSP, who has been out of the octagon for three years, according to an interview he did with Fox Sports Wednesday night.
“I made this GSP fight, we did a press conference. The thing was supposed to happen in July. Michael Bisping is going to have to defend his title now. We’re not waiting for GSP,”
“(Yoel) doesn’t need to voice his opinion on why he needs a title shot. He definitely deserves a title shot. He’s next in line, he’s the No.1 ranked guy in the world.
“Georges St-Pierre was coming back. Bisping-St-Pierre - they both wanted that fight. We asked Yoel to step aside, he did. It doesn’t look like that fight is gonna happen now.
“Georges St-Pierre is saying he will not be ready to compete now until November. Who knows if that’s even the case. It could be next year."
Judging by this snap of Pierre from training last week, where he is rocking the dad bod image, it could well be next year by the time he's fit to fight.
“So we’re not waiting for Georges St-Pierre anymore. We’re moving on with the division, and Yoel Romero will get the next shot.”
It’s not yet clear when the Romero vs Bisping fight will take place but White has satisfied many middleweight fighters, and a lot of fans by doing this.Explore more on these topics:
