After the last-minute cancellation of a weekend UFC 122 co-headliner with Alessio Sakara, Jorge Rivera soon could end up fighting another middleweight contender: Michael Bisping.
A source close to the fighter today told MMAjunkie.com the fight is planned for UFC 127 in Australia but depends on Bisping’s acceptance of it.
Rivera first mentioned the possibility of the fight to kimura.se, and a source told MMAjunkie.com Rivera’s camp is “95 percent” positive it’ll take place.
