Michael Bisping recently named Justin Gaethje vs. Michael Chandler as one of the greatest UFC fights of recent times.
'The Count' appeared on the Happy Hour Podcast and was asked about the greatest UFC fight ever. He said there were so many great fights in the history of the promotion that it was tough to name one. However, he picked the UFC 268 lightweight clash between 'The Highlight' and 'Iron' as one of the best fights of recent times.
Here's what he said:
"I mean it's hard, it's always changing, there's always great fights. Just recently there was one. Michael Chandler and Justin Gaethje, UFC 268. That was incredible. We'll go with that one for now, there's so many. I commentate the fights now, so it's like a jumble in my brain."
