A massive UFC middleweight title fight is approaching. Current undisputed champion Robert Whittaker will unify his title with interim champion Israel Adesanya at the UFC 243 pay-per-view (PPV).

The show is set for October 5, but no official location has been announced for the card at this time. However, it’s expected to take place in Australia, which would easily be the country’s biggest fight of all time. Whittaker and Adesanya are two of the most gifted strikers in the UFC.

Their matchup at UFC 243 certainly isn’t going to be one you’re going to want to miss. Recently, UFC Hall Of Famer Michael Bisping was interviewed by Helen Yee, and asked for his thoughts on the matchup. “The Count” noted that Adesanya has been talking a lot of smack heading into the fight, and believes Whittaker is going to make the Nigerian champ “eat his words”:

“Oh, you’re trying to get me to make a prediction and throw myself under a bus here,” Bisping said. “Because Adesanya doesn’t like it when everyone’s not tickling his balls. But, I got to say, he’s talking sh*it up there to Whittaker. Whittaker is going to make him eat his words.”

Do you agree with Bisping’s assessment of the matchup between Whittaker and Adesanya?

Jorge Masvidal stole the show at UFC 239 this past weekend.

“Gamebred” knocked out Ben Askren in five seconds in their highly-anticipated welterweight bout. The knockout garnered a ridiculous reaction from the mixed martial arts (MMA) community online. However, interim UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya’s reaction was caught live on camera.

While in the middle of an interview with TSN’s Aaron Bronsteter, Adesanya lost it when watching Masvidal nail Askren with a sprinting flying knee. Masvidal was later interviewed by Bronsteter as well, and was shown Adesanya’s reaction to the knockout. The Florida native found “Stylebender’s” reaction very amusing, and had some kind words for the Nigerian striker as well.

Check it out here:

“I know he likes that violence sh*t,” Masvidal giggled. “Damn, that’s the champ right there, man, shouting me out. You guys are welcome, man. See, that’s another real fighter.

That’s another dude that comes to hurt people, so when I get those kind of reactions from guys that I f*cking like their f*cking style, man, and I like that they’re actual fighters – you know, he’s a dog and he showed in that Gastelum fight, it means a lot to me.”

What did you think about Masvidal’s big knockout win over Askren at UFC 239? Do you think Askren will retire?
