Luke Rockhold urges GFL to sign Michael Bisping for trilogy grudge fight: ‘Bring his ass back’

Former undisputed UFC middleweight champion, Luke Rockhold has urged the GFL (Global Fight League) to pursue the signature of fellow ex-champion, Michael Bisping to a deal in order for them to settle their rivalry in the form of a trilogy rubber match in the newly-launched promotion.

Rockhold, a former undisputed middleweight champion during his tenures with the UFC and the now-defunct, Strikeforce, is set to make his return to mixed martial arts later this year, after he was drafted on the Dubai team roster — under the tutelage of coaches, Cain Velasquez, and Javier Mendez under the banner of the GFL.
