UFC Fight Night event in Sydney Australia has a main event. Middleweights Michael Bisping and Luke Rockhold finally have the fight both have been angling for.
Bisping coming off a dominant win over Cung Le, in Macau, China, has had a twitter battle with Rockhold for weeks. Bisping went so far to call out Luke after his win over Le. The Ultimate Fighter: Team Punishment vs. Team Shamrock Light Heavyweight winner, was also head coach twice in the reality series history, coaching against Dan Henderson (TUF: U.S. vs. UK) and Jason Miller (TUF: Team Bisping vs. Team Miller). The 21 time UFC veteran has a record of 26-6.
Rockhold who last entered the Octagon in April of 2014 defeated Tim Boetsch at UFC 172. Rockhold the former Strikeforce Middleweight Champion has looked good in the UFC, 2 wins via finishes.
The war of words leading into this one should be fun to watch, here’s to hoping the war in the cage matches it.

UFC Fight Night: Bisping vs. Rockhold
Middleweight: Michael Bisping vs. Luke Rockhold
