From “The Count” himself:
With reigning Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) featherweight champion Conor McGregor departing the next xXx movie (because of this), the road has been paved for the addition of top middleweight contender Michael Bisping.
Diesel is no stranger to casting UFC stars, having previously worked with former women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey for his “Fast & Furious” franchise. No word yet on what role Bisping will play, or if it’s nothing more than a cameo.
“The Count” was last seen taking a unanimous decision win over Anderson Silva at UFC Fight Night 84 across the pond.
