Former UFC Middleweight Champion Michael Bisping has stated that his next appearance in the Octagon would likely serve as a retirement fight.
Bisping recently took to Twitter to ask the fans who would make sense for him to have that final fight against:
I asked ufc, they asked me. Honestly, who makes sense? Serious question? Up and comer? Old legend? I have no idea https://t.co/k32fpmeXac

It would appear that light heavyweight competitor Gokhan Saki has answered that question for Bisping.
Saki would respond to the former middleweight champion in a trio of Twitter posts:

The light heavyweight competitor first has to deal with Khalil Rountree, as the duo is set for action this coming July at UFC 226.
There is currently no date set yet for Bisping’s potential retirement bout and if Saki can get past Rountree unscathed, it could make a bout between the two happen later this year.
