Shortly after confirming that he will face Michael Bisping at UFC 199, Luke Rockhold started the machine gun of provocations against his next challenger for the Ultimate middleweight belt.

The American snubbed the choice of the English veteran and assured that he will make his rival a customer, as Rockhold already beat Bisping in November 2014. “It's your destiny, right? That's what he calls it. It's his destiny to be my p***. It’s your destiny to be my p******”, provoked the champion, in an interview with the “UFC Tonight” program, on the North American broadcaster “FOX Sports”.
Furthermore, Rockhold mocked Bisping's participation in the film “Triple X”, starring Vin Diesel. “I want to congratulate you on your retirement. It looks like he's starting a cool career in film, so I'm excited to send him off. Last time it was a mistake to let him get past the first round, but this time, that won't happen. I'll give you half a round, Bisping. Half round. I’m going to give you some more scars for your film career”, he said.
Originally, Rockhold would defend the belt against his last opponent, Chris Weidman. However, the former champion was injured and was forced to withdraw from the fight. With that, Bisping, who is coming off a victory over Anderson Silva, will have the chance to fight for the title on June 4th, in Los Angeles (USA).
