He told Sirius XM Rush,” I’m at the tail end of my career. I think everybody knows that. It’s not like I have a huge career ahead of me. I’ve got a huge career behind me. That is the plan two more wins and sayonara, buddy. We’ll see but that is the plan right now. Plans change. That would be a perfect scenario for me.”

Bisping has been calling for the biggest money fights possible, Georges St-Pierre, Nick Diaz having been mentioned although the most likely fight will be against Yoel Romero.

” I don’t see what’s controversial with this statement at all. I said I want to be a part of the biggest fights possible. Whether that’s Yoel Romero, whether that’s Georges St-Pierre, whether that’s Jacare (Souza) or Anderson Silva, I just want to be a part of the biggest fight possible and earn the most money and that didn’t go down too well with some people and I really don’t see why that offends anybody or pisses anybody off.” Bisping said.

” The biggest fight possible and the biggest fight card possible. I want to be in a big event, I want to be on a big card. Is that too much to as? I’ve been here forever doing this.”

Bisping is currently injured which is delaying his return to the cage.

” I am scheduled for knee surgery tomorrow. Dana (White) offered me a couple of fights and I was hoping that the treatment I was having on my knee would be successful.” He explained. ” I had some PRP (platelet rich plasma) where they spin the plasma in your blood and I was hoping that would work but I’ve got a torn meniscus, I’ve got loose bodies floating inside there, I’ve got some small fractures in my bone.

” I’ve got a lot of stuff going on so I’ve got to go under the knife tomorrow so I’m not looking forward to that.”
